Summary:
First, in a special stand-alone issue, we meet a couple of characters for the first and last time - an aging husband and wife who eke out a living in the harsh and rugged heart of the Badlands. Next, Red Crow sends his right-hand man Shunka to sort out a feud with a rival Native American casino, but now he's become embroiled in a murder mystery. He knows he should walk away, but something inside won't let him, which means things are about to get bloody. Then, a special Vietnam War flashback issue featuring a surprise main character, one whose story has never been told until now. Finally, in "Unwanted," Carol has a choice to make: should she keep her baby? While Dash and Carol both battle their inner demons, a surprising character makes his dramatic return to the reservation.
