☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis anthology issue features three Western action stories: "Trouble in Bonanza" starring Lash LaRue, in which Lash encounters a mysterious stage hold-up near the gold mining town of Bonanza and must fight through gun and whip battles to uncover the truth; a tale of six-gun heroes including Joseph Leon and Black Jack, where the wanted outlaw faces trial for his crimes; and additional stories featuring the heroic adventures of frontier characters in their own time period.
Wyatt Earp's reputation takes a hit when the Frijole Kid dismisses his prized Buntline Special as mere showmanship—until a chance encounter proves otherwise and sets off a chain of trouble along the border. When a crooked politician named Joe Inez uses the Kid and his gang to stage a daring bank and express office heist, Earp must outthink the scheme before the real crime can unfold. The Marshal's legendary patience and that special Colt combine to teach a hard lesson about underestimating frontier justice.
Wild Bill Hickok's reputation as a fighting marshal draws a Philadelphia reporter to Gila River for an interview, but their conversation is cut short when trouble erupts at Baylor's Saloon—a giant named Flint Gunyon is terrorizing the townspeople. Hickok must face off against the mountain man while the eager reporter watches the action unfold firsthand.
When Annie Oakley passes through the frontier town of Alkali Flats during its fifth-anniversary celebration, she's unexpectedly crowned beauty queen—but her reign takes a dangerous turn when a group of outlaws led by Tay Mingo seizes the moment to rob the local assay office of its gold. With the miners outgunned and desperate, Annie uses her wits and her trusty six-shooters to turn the tables on the thieves before they can escape town. It's a tale of frontier justice served by the woman the townspeople elected to celebrate—not knowing they'd soon depend on her fastest draw to save them.
Lash LaRue rolls into the gold-mining town of Bonanza just as a mysterious stage hold-up sets off a chain of strange events—the bandits use blank bullets and kidnap a passenger instead of stealing gold. When a champion fighter arrives in town and the locals bet their entire fortunes on a bout, Lash smells a setup and steps into the ring himself to uncover what's really going on.
