The Crooked Wheel

Wild Bill Hickok takes a marshal's badge in a cattle town run by a ruthless gambling syndicate, only to discover the operation is rigged from top to bottom—with a hidden operator controlling the roulette wheel from an attic perch. When a young man loses his entire bankroll to the crooked games, Hickok sets out to expose the scheme and turn the tables on Draper and his dealers. The famous lawman must navigate a town where money and power run deeper than the law, all while staying one step ahead of the men who hired him.

Tainted Reward

When a prominent cattleman turns up dead, Marshal Wild Bill Hickok suspects the hot-tempered ranch owner Tony Callen has been framed by a scheming rival with ambitions to control the valley's water rights. With a vengeful posse and a hefty bounty at his back, Hickok must prove Callen's innocence before mob justice overtakes the law—and uncover the real killer's motive before it's too late.

Alias the Mayor
4 pp · western-frontier

Mayor Paul Brophy built a reputation for honest law and order with Marshal Wild Bill Hickok, but when an old acquaintance named Harris rolls into town claiming to be an old friend, the mayor's clean record suddenly becomes leverage for blackmail. Wild Bill watches helplessly as Harris and his gang grow bolder—robbing stores with impunity while the mayor seems powerless to stop them, until the marshal decides to dig into exactly what Harris has on Brophy and uncover the truth beneath the threat.

When a gang of outlaws stirs up a grudge-nursing sharpshooter named Sam against Annie Oakley after a public shooting contest, they figure they've found the perfect tool to eliminate the famous markswoman—but Sam's about to discover there's more to Annie than they bargained for. This 1956 tale from *Cowboy Western* #61 pits frontier pride against manipulation as a simple man learns the difference between those who truly have his back and those who'd use him for their own ends.

When a dare is issued for someone to take the vacant marshal's job, Hickok accepts—sparking a dangerous confrontation with the town's riffraff that will test whether one man and his partner can stand against an entire gang bent on claiming his scalp. The honest citizens of Dead End finally get a chance to fight back against the gunslingers who've terrorized them for so long.
