Notes: In the story, a circus bareback rider named Kim Lewis is staying with her uncle Hank Lewis while recuperating from an injury. She's bored, and decides to stir things up a bit by dressing as a masked desperado (though she never actually commits any real crimes). She calls herself "The Black Rider" and wears a full black suit, black cape, black gloves, broad-brimmed black hat, and a black mask with eye-holes that covers the face but hangs loose at the bottom; everyone assumes she's a man. In fact, she looks JUST LIKE this. Two-Gun Kid finds her out and she is forced to abandon her lark. - Tom Lammers.
