Tex Ritter Western #3

Loonie Les proudly announces to Chip that he's brought home a skunk, setting up a comedic clash of wills when the two debate the practicalities of keeping the critter under his bed. What could possibly go wrong with a skunk as a bedmate in this lighthearted frontier tale?

When the trigger-happy outlaw Red Harlan and his gang rob the town bank and shoot down the local sheriff, Tex Ritter of the Prairie Rangers takes up the chase—but to get close enough to stop them, he'll have to infiltrate their hideout by posing as a drifter named Tracy, complete with a lightning-fast draw to prove his worth. As Tex earns Red's trust and learns the gang's plans for their next score, he discovers that one of Red's own men harbors a dangerous secret that could unravel everything. A classic frontier showdown awaits when Tex must decide whether to strike from within or risk it all in the open.

Tex Ritter must intercept a wagon train headed straight into renegade territory—but he arrives to find them under attack by Chief Stormcloud and his band. Using quick thinking and sharpshooting from a ridge, Tex bluffs the raiders into retreat, then escorts the pioneers back to Fort Cahill, where he discovers the real threat: a smuggler named Blanding has been arming Stormcloud with modern guns and revealing the fort's skeleton garrison, setting the stage for a devastating assault.

Tex Ritter, the two-fisted Prairie Ranger, rides into Pecos Fork to investigate conflicting reports about the Chico Kid—a mysterious outlaw who's terrorized the town but supposedly pulled his last job three days ago. When Tex discovers the truth behind the gang's capture and confronts the clever criminal, he must outthink a cunning dwarf outlaw who's orchestrated a scheme to rob the bank while keeping the Rangers at bay. It's a showdown where brains prove just as dangerous as six-guns in this 1951 western adventure.

Pinto Pete is laid up with a terrible toothache and needs to get himself to the dentist in town—but in true frontier fashion, the journey proves to be half the battle. It's a quick, punchy little tale about a cowboy learning that sometimes the cure is worse than the complaint.
