Contains 6 stories
Baby Talk!
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

Chief Gray Matter finds himself in a friendly frontier comparison with another parent about their young sons, trading boasts about the usual milestones—until the conversation takes an unexpectedly absurd turn that deflates all the proud parenting chatter. It's a quick, punchy gag that pokes fun at one-upmanship and the sometimes ridiculous standards parents use to measure their kids' development.

His Wonderful Bird Call!
8 pp · western-frontier

Gabby Hayes and young Tippy head out for a turkey hunt armed with a homemade bird call Gabby's been whittling all winter—but the contraption proves far more powerful than expected, summoning a frenzy of turkey buzzards instead of turkeys. When the pair stumbles onto rustlers stealing Bar Nothing cattle, Gabby finds himself trapped and outgunned—until that "dratted" bird call becomes his unlikely ticket out of a tight spot.

Honest John's Mistake
7 pp · western-frontier

When crooked gambler Honest John makes an outrageous 500-to-1 wager that nobody can ride a horse up the new courthouse steeple before sundown, he figures he's found easy money—until word reaches Gabby Hayes and his remarkable horse Corker. Desperate to keep Gabby away from town, Honest John resorts to kidnapping, but the old buckaroo breaks free just as his rival's own schemes begin to unravel in ways neither of them expected.

Gambling with Death!
4 pp · western-frontier

In Split Rock, Lariat witnesses a card-game dispute and stops a man from shooting an accused cheater—only to discover the accusation was itself a setup by a ruthless gang working a deadly con. When the gang retaliates by kidnapping him, Lariat's companions Mark and Buck arrive just in time to turn the tables and expose the criminals' murderous racket.

The Dangerous Duke
11 pp · western-frontier

Gabby Hayes faces off against the conniving Duke Du Fon, a smooth-talking nobleman who's swept into town with money to burn and designs on winning over a local woman—much to the old cowhand's irritation. When the Duke's true colors begin to show, Gabby finds himself framed and chased by an angry mob, leading to a wild chase that sends both men skyward in a hot air balloon. It's a rip-roaring clash of frontier grit versus phony aristocracy, complete with all the slapstick chaos you'd expect when these two collide.

Half Crazy!
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

When Loco Lew wants to give his twin nephews a birthday present, he settles on half a ping pong set—and he's got a perfectly logical reason why. It's a quick dose of frontier humor that plays on the kind of twisted logic that makes this old character such a hoot in the pages of Gabby Hayes Western.
