Free to read · restored edition by comicbooks.com · Issue details →
Sheriff Ted Tucker races to intercept Dusty Rhodes, who’s escaped custody and vanished into the snowy Arizona wilderness, following a trail of clues that suggest Rhodes was framed. As Tucker closes in, he uncovers a web of deception involving a wounded sheriff, a missing man, and a desperate attempt to cover up a string of cattle rustlings.
In the lawless frontier of 1880s Arizona, the feared outlaw Burly Will Grady leads his gang in a series of brutal cattle raids, striking fear into ranchers and cowboys alike. When a mysterious stranger arrives in town claiming to be a peaceful herder, his true intentions—and those of the gang—are soon tested as a posse led by Marshal White closes in.
