Du Bois later recycled the White Wind origin for the beginning of Lassie #1: an orphan dog and an orphan kid (albeit in a different setting).

Compare Chuckwagon Charley's, "You see, Tommy Frayne and White Wind were just a couple of homeless orphans, on the open range," to Du Bois's Lassie origin in Lassie #1.
