In the present, Bishop’s bold scheme to revive the flagging spirits of Restin sends him into the Wild West, where the seemingly harmless Al Jennings hides a dangerous secret—leading to a shocking confrontation that leaves Restin questioning everything. Written by Budd Lewis and illustrated with bold, dynamic flair by Lee Elias, with a striking cover by Nestor Redondo, this 1980 issue of The Rook Magazine is a standout in the series’ storied run.

Meanwhile, in the present, Bishop Dane orchestrates a staged emergency to jolt the disillusioned Restin back to the Wild West, sending him to unravel the truth behind the vanished Al Jennings, a man whose true nature proves far more dangerous than his reputation suggests.
