Description

In Gunsmoke #135, “Wrong Man,” homesteader Sam Rickers rides into Dodge with what he claims is the body of outlaw Bob Hobart—gunning for a $1,000 reward. But Marshal Dillon quickly realizes the corpse isn’t Hobart at all, but an innocent man, Jake Haney, mistaken for an outlaw. When Jake’s grieving partner arrives in town demanding justice, Sam’s lies deepen, leading to another killing. Caught between his wife Lettie’s fear and the Marshal’s questions, the truth finally spills out: Sam is no hero but a cold-blooded murderer. A grim tale of deceit, cowardice, and the high price of false bravado.
