In “Lines Not Crossed” and “Downbeat” — issues 7 through 11 of the series, collected here for the first time — the thrilling adventures of The Lone Ranger continue as he and Tonto find themselves caught between frontier justice and a condemned man. As the hangman’s noose draws tighter — and Butch Cavendish ever closer — The Ranger and Tonto must uncover the truth behind a violent shootout… and what course of action to take when the law and their morality fails to p rovide clear answers.
