Accused!
9 pp · Western-Frontier

When cattle rustlers led by Cokey Joe strike Tom Mix's ranch, he stops the stampede—but the rustler leader escapes and turns up dead, with a scheming newspaper editor ready to pin the murder on Tom. Now facing a town turned against him by false headlines, Tom must clear his name before a rigged trial seals his fate.

Drip, Drip
0.5 pp · Humor, Western-Frontier

A young Indian boy with a mischievous streak keeps pestering the cowboys around town—much to their frustration, especially when his pranks turn painful. When folks discover his father is the chief Rain-in-the-Face, they wonder if the boy will ever learn some manners, or if his troublemaking ways are here to stay.

More Dough!

Divided Loyalty!
8 pp · Western-Frontier

Tom Mix pursues the wanted killer Ted Dalt into the foothills, only to discover that Ann Benton, a young woman he rescued from Dalt's brutality, is bound to the outlaw by blood—and a promise to their dying father. Torn between family loyalty and doing what's right, Ann finds herself caught between the man hunting Dalt and the brother she can no longer protect, forcing her to choose which obligation she can live with.

Tom Mix and the Laughing Leopard Lady
8 pp · Western-Frontier

Tom Mix agrees to help his old friend Buck Bradford's traveling circus, but when a mysterious robbery spree strikes the town at night—with victims left dead and a laughing woman's voice echoing through the darkness—he and Sheriff Mike Shaw must uncover the connection between the circus's newest attraction, Samara the Leopard Lady, and the stolen fortunes. As Tom closes in on the killer, a trap meant to catch her becomes far more dangerous than he anticipated.

Tumbleweed Jr. gets a fancy new suit and promises his mother he'll keep it clean, but a trip to the woods quickly turns into a misadventure when he climbs a tree to reach a bird's nest. Between dive-bombing birds, an unexpected dunking in the river, and a laundry disaster, the suit ends up in progressively worse condition—and Tumbleweed Jr. has some fast explaining to do when he gets home.
