Hawkeye turns on the Torturer
Title
Hawkeye
turns
on the
Torturer
Box Number
8
Subject
Cartoons (Commentary)
Caption
"
The
skunk
hurled
the
tomahawk
with
deadly
malignity
at the
intended
victim
,
who
stood
like
a
statue
amid
the
taunts
,
menaces
, and the
shower
of
deadly
weapons
of the
howling
savages.
Suddenly
Hawkeye
raised
his
arm
and
caught
the
deadly
weapon
by the
handle.
His
eye
kindled
then
, and a
small
red
spot
appeared
on
each
cheek
,
while
he
cast
all
his
energy
into the
effort
of his
arm
, and
threw
the
weapon
back
at his
assailant.
The
unexpectedness
of the
blow
contributed
to its
success.
The
skunk
had not
time
to
raise
his
arm
or
bend
his
head
to
avoid
it.
The
keen
axe
struck
the
savage
in a
straight
line
with the
nose
,
between
the
eyes
,
literally
braining
him on the
spot.
"
-The
Deerslayer.
