"Indian or White Man?" The Apache Kid was Alan Krandal, a Caucasian who had been raised by Apache chief Red Hawk and his wife after being orphaned. When grown, he took on a "civilian" identity as cowboy Aloysius Kare. He used his Apache Kid identity to fight outlaws, both White and Native American. Apache Kid was one of the few Western comics of the 1950s in which distinctions were made between various tribes and individuals, rather than lumping all Indians together as one tribe.
