Tomahawk #2/1978
"Prisjägaren" kicks off with a dramatic twist: a hangman in England inherits a barony after the execution of the previous lord. Now the Hangman Baron, he travels to America with a ruthless ambition—forcing Native Americans to build a fortress for him. As frontier rangers stand in his way, tensions rise over control of key territory, setting the stage for a clash of wills in this 1978 Semic edition. Written by Robert Kanigher and illustrated by Frank Thorne, with a striking cover by W. G. L. Bartsch.
In the rugged frontier of 1878, a British executioner inherits a barony and arrives in America with a ruthless vision: to force Native peoples to build him a fortress. As the Rangers—led by the steadfast Tomahawk and his comrades including Cannonball, Long Rifle Morgan, and Big Anvil—move to stop his encroachment, tensions flare over control of vital land. With the shadow of the past rising in flashbacks and the mysterious presence of the enigmatic Bödeln and the ghostly Vita Molnet, the frontier becomes a battleground of power, legacy, and justice.
In a harsh frontier clash, the young Botalye faces scorn from the elders for shying from battle—until he proves his courage by confronting four white soldiers unarmed. His unharmed return earns him the name "Odödlig," but the title brings more than honor, it brings a reckoning.
