The man with no name is back.

Manco is a bounty hunter who makes a living capturing outlaws. Colonel Douglas Mortimer, a former military officer who also hunts criminals, shares the same trade. Both learn separately that El Indio, a ruthless, cold-blooded bank robber, has escaped from prison. He pulled it off with the help of a gang of fourteen men, including a hunchback who calls himself Juan Salvaje. The gunmen have killed nearly all the prison guards, and the escape has put banks across the region on alert. A reward is offered for the bandit, which catches the interest of both hunters. The two men set out on the hunt separately, each using his own methods.
