Tex Granger battles outlaws in the Badlands after being outnumbered and captured by the gang led by Faro Blake, who plans to execute him and his companion Clemens. Tex uses his wits and a jumping frog story to distract the guard and escape, then pursues the criminals to recover stolen money from a railroad station. The issue also includes an educational feature on cattle branding history and terminology, explaining the origins and methods of Spanish branding marks used in the American West.
