Synopsis for "Blind Justice!"

Reprint of the 4th story from
Rawhide Kid #10
In a lawless town the Rawhide Kid is confronted by a man seeking to get out of town and is willing to shoot the Kid and steal his horse to get it. The Kid offers up his horse, but when the gunslinger tires to leave, Apache bucks him off. When the Kid subdues the would be horse thief and asks where the law is and is laughed at. He is told that the only law in town is Judge Parker who cannot enforce the laws he tries to uphold as there are no sheriffs or other lawmen in town. The Kid pays a visit to Parker who confirms that his rule of law over the town of Poncho has little effect. Paker is also quite ashamed as his son is coming to visit.

The Rawhide Kid goes out to meet Judge Parker's son Jim and tells him what is going on. Jim explains that his father wanted him to study to be lawyer but he refused, and figures that his father is ashamed of him. When the Kid learns that Jim is a crack shot, he comes up with a plan. The pair then put their shooting skills to good work to clear out the outlaws that live in Poncho, and force them to flee.

With the town clear of outlaws, Jim agrees to stay in town and be the local marshal to enforce the laws and punishments sentenced by his father.

Notes

  • In the third story "Blind Justice!" the Original Rawhide Kid had his hair recoloured to try to pass him as Jonathan Clay, despite the total incoherence with the story of both characters. Rawhide Kid handbook entries establishes that the both Rawhides existed in Earth-616 and were different people.
