Part 1: The Ranger Killers · 5.67 pages
The British enlist several convicted criminals, each with a special skill, into a gang intended to destroy Tomahawk's Rangers, and led by a mysterious masked figure. They quickly capture some of the Rangers in order to lead the others into a trap.
Part 2: The Rangers Die at Sunset! · 9.67 pages
Tomahawk is captured while trying to free his comrades and the Hood unmasks for him, revealing herself as Lady Shilling, sister of his old enemy Lord Shilling. He later escapes and reunites with the Rangers, who quickly defeat the Ranger Killers (though the Hood escapes).
The Battle That Never Died · 8.67 pages
On Christmas, Tomahawk and his men are ordered to cross a river at all costs. They try again and again but are driven back by enemy fire.
