In "Watchmen of the Range," the Lone Ranger and Tonto face a high-stakes showdown on the rails as rancher Dude Gorman orchestrates a ruthless plan to corner the market by monopolizing the limited cattle cars bound for Junction City—threatening the livelihoods of every other rancher in the territory. Written by Paul S. Newman and illustrated with sharp, dynamic detail by Tom Gill, this 1951 Dell classic sees the Ranger and his faithful companion racing against time and deception, with Ernest Nordli’s striking cover capturing the tension of a frontier showdown.
