The Road Back
7 pp · western-frontier

When a bronc-busting accident leaves Slim Brown injured and doubting his worth, Tom Mix tries to show the young man that disability doesn't mean the end of a useful life—only a change in direction. But Slim's resolve is tested when an escaped outlaw bent on revenge against Tom comes calling in the night, and the crippled bronc-buster must find a way to warn his friend before it's too late. Tom Mix proves that sometimes the smallest act of courage can reveal the greatest strength in us all.

Barometer Paper!
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

A smooth-talking cowboy tries to make a quick buck selling "barometer paper" to eager prospectors, claiming it can predict the weather—but his scheme relies on a trick so simple it might just be too clever for its own good. This 1951 humor tale from Tom Mix Western proves that the Old West had its share of con artists and gullible marks, and sometimes the best jokes come wrapped in a dollar bill.

Bathing Beauty
1 pp · humor

Tom Mix pulls up to a boardinghouse looking for lodging and strikes a deal with the proprietor for a cheap room—but his budget-conscious choice sets up a comedic twist when he learns what "without a bath" really means in this 1951 Western humor tale. A one-page gag that plays with the double meaning of "bath" in the Old West style.

The Unexpected Visit
6 pp · western-frontier

Tom Mix discovers a shocking crime at Simms' ranch when he arrives to find the owner shot and the safe robbed, with the ranch hands mysteriously unconscious. Suspicion falls on Adams, a hired hand whose bunk sits empty, and as Tom pieces together the culprit's scheme, a dangerous confrontation erupts inside the ranch house. There's a tense cat-and-mouse game unfolding that will test Tom's wits and skill against a desperate criminal.
