Buffalo Branders
6 pp · Western-Frontier

In a frontier showdown, a group of crooked ranchers attempt to steal the right to hunt buffalo by illegally removing a clause from a peace treaty, claiming the animals as their own and selling them to the very Native Americans they’re exploiting. When the chief of a nearby tribe arrives demanding justice, Rocky Lane steps in to expose the fraud, using clever tactics and a hidden piece of the treaty to bring the swindlers to account.

Dee Dickens shows up at Ollie Batt’s stall, complaining about a drooling dog, only to learn Ollie was trying to sell him a Spitz—leading to a humorous misunderstanding about dog breeds. As the conversation spirals into a series of wordplay and absurd suggestions, Dee insists he needs a dog to keep track of his clothes, prompting Ollie to propose a "tobeneat" as a solution.

The Sneak Rustlers

Rocky Lane, the two-gun secret marshal, investigates a baffling case of missing cattle that vanish after reaching the shipping stockyards. As he uncovers a clever scheme involving forged brands and sabotage, he’s captured by a gang of rustlers planning to blow up a cattle train—forcing him and his loyal stallion, Black Jack, to race against time to stop the disaster and save both the train and the stockyard.

The Riders of the Fog

Rocky Lane, posing as a secret marshal, arrives at the Circle M Ranch after a young woman reports her grandfather’s sudden disappearance, only to be ambushed by masked riders in a thick, unnatural fog that blankets the prairie. As he recovers and investigates, Rocky uncovers a connection between the strange fog, a mysterious chemical powder, and a gang of rustlers exploiting the confusion to steal cattle and hold the missing man hostage. With the help of clues from the rancher’s workshop and a cleverly rigged device, Rocky sets a trap to expose the criminals and uncover the truth behind the fog.
