Synopsis:
Traveling to the past, Harry Diamond arrives in Apache, Texas on the eve of a Top Gun competition open to lawman and outlaw alike. In his search for Captain Paragon's identity, he makes a number of acquaintances including young Charles Starrett and his mentor Doc Marvel. Outside of town, the Femforce, minus Tara but including Stardust, arrive in 1874 and assume disguises as female outlaws. While Nightveil enters the contest and She-Cat befriends some Kiowas, Ms. Victory and Stardust find a drunken Harry in the saloon. A fight breaks out, and due to a shoulder wound Charlie receives, his identity as the Latigo Kid is discovered by his enemy, Senator Clane. Unknown to any of the time travelers at this point, Klyness the Kronon has also arrived in 1874 to hunt down Captain Paragon.

Meanwhile, in the present, Cap himself sits in solitude on the Moon, distraught over the possibility that he may be a genetically-engineered Kronon, At that moment he comes face-to-face with the Shade. On Earth, the Sentinels of Justice, along with other paranormals, are now declared outlaw vigilantes as Atoman takes over Latimer Labs and declares martial law. Denny Brant. hearing the news in New York, tries to summon Commando D, but Vardax emerge from the ring and steal it, declaring that the D-man is now their prisoner and that they will use the ring as another gateway to their invasion of Earth.

Notes:
Though much of Doc Marvel's "magic" is phony, we learn in FF 8 that, as Dr. Leiber, he does possess the paranormal ability of "second sight." This allows him to see his encounter with Harry in the far future.... Marvel is revealed as the man Harry encounters at the Paragon Foundation in S of J 3 (1).... The argument between She-Cat and Nightveil demonstrates the fine line Laura tries to walk in being both human and sorceress.... Tim Holt's mistaking Nightveil for the Black Phantom dates this story prior to Red Mask and Black Phantom becoming partners.... the identities of Red Mask and the Durango Kid are never specifically revealed here.... Laura's weakened powers are revealed in FF 8 to be due to her coexistence with the Haunted Horseman in this time era.... She-Cat makes a gruesome off-stage lunch out of a prairie dog.
