The Silver Kid story follows three men and a boy who have spent two years collecting gold dust in the desert, and when a man named Pete arrives with gold of his own, greed and suspicion lead to conflict among the group. The narrative explores how the allure of wealth corrupts the men's partnership, with Pete ultimately attacking them, forcing the Silver Kid and his companions into a confrontation at a mining supply building where violence erupts.

Origin of the Silver Kid
6 pp
Gold Dust
6 pp · Western-Frontier

Two prospectors strike gold after years in the desert, but their partnership doesn't survive the discovery—greed turns deadly as one man betrays the other for a chance at fortune. When the surviving prospector spends lavishly in town, word spreads fast, and the scent of wealth draws out the worst in everyone around him, setting off a chain of betrayals and violence that spirals far beyond either man's control.

Ghost Town
6 pp · Western-Frontier

Three hardened outlaws—Luke Tileston, Dingo Larson, and a gunfighter called Waco—venture into a desolate ghost town searching for a payroll Dingo's brother buried there a decade ago. When Apache warriors close in on their position, the trio must fight for survival, and their search for riches becomes a struggle against both the desert and each other. As tensions rise and greed threatens to tear the group apart, an unexpected alliance might be the only thing standing between them and death in the forgotten town.

Tough Hombre
7 pp · Western-Frontier

Chino, a gunslinger drifting through the Texas Panhandle, finds himself trapped in a small-town hotel after a fatal encounter in the local saloon—and he's not alone. A young admirer who's been following his every move appears at his door with a secret way out, but Chino's got nothing but contempt for the hero-worshipping kid. As the law closes in and the odds pile up, this hardened killer faces a choice between saving his own hide and dealing with the consequences of the violence he leaves behind.
