	Ye gods, that's so hard to read without stuttering in sympathy, how on earth could anyone actually write an entire comic in that prose style? (Reply to this)

Drop the "ums" (a stupid dialect convention of the time) and this is a perfectly good little back-up story. A young Navajo boy discovers a hidden tribe and resolves their keeping him prisoner by showing them new techniques. The artwork is much better on closer look.. layouts and body languages are fine. I like the details like the dog scratching behind its ear.

RED RYDER was made into a serial with more action than the norm, and there Little Beaver was played by Robert Blake (who later starred in TELL THEM WILLIE BOY IS HERE and the TV series BARETTA.)

	They tried teaming up Little Beaver with their Asian child hero, Little Wang, but apparently the combo violated some child pornography law... (Reply to this) (Thread)
