However, destiny had something else in store for him, as Bullock meets Wild Bill Hickok and, together they rise up to fight against injustice. The meeting of the two main characters of the historical drama series has been presented in a very flamboyant fashion, with Bullock and Hickok shooting a man, who allegedly, killed the entire family brutally.

The second season continues with lively deeds of Bullock and Hickok and, the main focus is on the political change that erupts at the wake of US government’s declaration of converting Dakota (which includes Deadwood town) into a public territory.
