The Lone Ranger #45

In "Red Cloud's Victory," the Sioux chief Red Cloud faces a devastating defeat in battle against Army soldiers armed with new repeating rifles, yet his resilience and strategic resistance ultimately force the government to retreat from the Sioux hunting grounds. The story captures a pivotal moment in the struggle for Native American land, where victory is measured not by battlefield triumph, but by the enduring power of resistance.

When Young Hawk, Little Buck, and High Cloud rescue Tuari and his wife from a brutal Apache raid, they bring the couple to their lakeside Pueblo. That night, the sanctuary is tested as the attackers return—forcing the defenders to stand together in a desperate defense of their home.
