Ohiyesa "Pow Wow" Smith is a fictional
Western hero published by
DC Comics. Created by writer
Don Cameron and
penciler Carmine Infantino, he is a
Sioux who is the
sheriff of the small Western town of Elkhorn, where he is known as a master detective. He prefers to be addressed by his proper name, Ohiyesa, but the white citizenry take to calling him "Pow Wow" so stubbornly that he eventually gives up and accepts the nickname among them.
