Rocky Lane Western #25

Rocky Lane's vacation takes an unexpected turn when he stumbles onto badman Touhy's scheme to control vast ranchland before the railroad cuts through—a plan that involves rustling herds and running honest ranchers into ruin. After catching a glimpse of the outlaws' true intentions, Rocky is bushwhacked and left for dead, but his faithful stallion Black Jack races him to safety at the Double B spread. Now it's a race against time to stop Touhy's looting operation before the gang can seize control of the range.

After a week's vacation visiting friends, Dee Dickens returns to the ranch eager to get back to work—much to his boss's surprise. What unfolds is a rapid-fire exchange of insults and wisecracks between the two, touching on everything from questionable bunkhouse cuisine to Dee's disreputable wardrobe, leading to threats of firing and reconciliation in equal measure. It's a classic frontier comedy built on the kind of groan-worthy wordplay and exaggerated complaints that keep both characters coming back for more verbal sparring.
