Contains 7 stories
The Outlaw Haven
8 pp · western-frontier

Lash LaRue pursues a pair of bank robbers after a daring heist leaves a guard buried in the rubble—and his quick work with a bullwhip brings one of them within reach of the law. When the captured outlaw reveals the existence of a secret hideout called the Outlaw Haven where notorious bandits have eluded capture for over a year, Lash sees his chance to infiltrate the operation and bring the whole criminal network to justice. But as he poses as a fugitive seeking shelter, Lash begins to uncover something far more suspicious about how Kurr, the haven's mysterious operator, manages to keep such a dangerous secret from the townsfolk.

Balanced Diet
1 pp · humor; western-frontier
Wagonwheels

Wagonwheels returns to town after working in a lumber camp up north, and when the fellas ask about his time away, he brags about the quality of the meals—until he reveals what "balanced diet" really meant to the camp cook. A quick comic payoff that lands right where you'd expect it to, but no less satisfying for the setup.

Mis-Step
4 pp · humor; western-frontier

Dusty lands a job as a dancing teacher and brags about his talent, but when a skeptical rival challenges him to demonstrate the one-step and two-step, Dusty's footwork proves more painful than graceful—literally stomping on his challenger's feet at every turn. This 1952 humor tale turns a simple dancing lesson into a slapstick showdown where Dusty's confidence wildly outpaces his ability, with both characters trading barbs as fast as kicks.

Light Headed!
1 pp · humor; western-frontier
Molasses Mouth

When Molasses Mouth decides to enjoy a cigar after dinner, a simple offer of a light turns into a humorous exchange about the stubborn nature of first matches. This quick western gag plays on the universal frustration of trying to get a flame to catch, delivered with the kind of deadpan logic that makes you groan and smile at the same time.

The Escape!
7 pp · western-frontier

Lash LaRue, the famous roving marshal, finds himself dressed in a prison uniform—courtesy of the sheriff for a masquerade ball—when he's mistaken for an escaped convict by a gang working for the outlaw Slick Carlson. Playing along to gather intelligence, Lash infiltrates Carlson's operation, but when the criminals realize his true identity, they decide he's become a liability. Watch as Lash uses his wits and quick reflexes to turn the tables on his captors and bring the whole gang to justice.

A Matter of Opinion!
0.5 pp · humor; western-frontier
Gambler's Showdown!
6 pp · western-frontier

When Lash LaRue comes to Cinderville to judge the annual carnival horse race, he discovers that crooked gamblers have already tried to rig the competition—and brutally attacked an honest jockey who refused their bribes. Racing to uncover the truth, Lash finds himself caught between the gamblers' deadly schemes and a mysterious newcomer whose horse keeps winning by suspicious margins, forcing the marshal to separate winning luck from calculated cheating before the final race is run.
