With a plot line mostly lifted from 1941's "White Eagle", Columbia's 24th serial (following "The Desert Hawk-1944" and ahead of 1945's "Brenda Starr, Reporter"), "Black Arrow" finds carpet-baggers Jake Jackson and Buck Sherman arriving in Blue Mesa in search of gold.

"Indians battle renegades! Outlaws fight for hidden gold! Bowie knifes flash! Horses Stampede!Rioting redskins hit the warpath as all fury thunders out of the West!"
