Monte Hale Western #58

This issue features two main stories: "Gabby Hayes and the Fake Brand," in which Gabby Hayes, foreman of the Bar Nothing ranch, discovers a scheme involving fake cattle branding when a stranger approaches with young calves, leading to action involving bees and the capture of a criminal using insects to penetrate armor. The second story is a comedic tale involving characters trying to extract money from a man in the city, with the narrative taking humorous turns around discussions of "punch" and a reference to "thirteen stories down," culminating in a confrontation that plays on the joke of whether they want truth or a fish tale.
