In "The Girl Who Was Chief!", Tomahawk and Dan venture into Ojibwa territory in 1771, seeking answers behind a series of raids on white settlements. After being ambushed, they’re saved by Arana, a young woman recently named chief—her authority and leadership soon put her in the thick of a mystery tied to the feathered attackers. With Bruno Premiani handling both the interior art and cover, this 1951 issue blends frontier tension with a quietly subversive twist, all rendered in his distinctive, dynamic style.

In 1771, Tomahawk and Dan venture into Ojibwa territory to uncover why raids on white settlements have intensified. After being ambushed by warriors adorned with turkey feathers—distinct from the eagle feathers of true chiefs—they’re saved by Arana, the newly elected leader of her people. But when the clues point to Chief Little Badger’s village, the truth behind the raids begins to unravel.
