In "The Great Train Robbery," Apache Kid uncovers a sinister ruse when he finds Big Wolf using manipulated totem poles and coyote-like sounds to scare off settlers and hide his stolen goods—taken from Native graves. With sharp instincts and steady resolve, the Kid tracks down the outlaw and recovers the stolen items, proving once again that justice rides true in the frontier. The story, illustrated with gritty precision by Werner Roth, features a striking cover by Jack Kirby and Marie Severin, with inks by Dick Ayers and Marie Severin, all contributing to the tense, atmospheric mood of a 1974 Western thriller.
