The Case of the Missing Fur Trappers
9 pp · western-frontier

Hopalong Cassidy arrives in the Canadian wilderness to consult with the Royal Northwest Mounted Police on a puzzling case: two fur trappers, the Moliere Brothers, have vanished along with their entire dog team and a valuable catch of minks. When Hopalong discovers their buried bodies near the cabin, he must uncover who had the motive and opportunity to commit this remote crime before the killer escapes the territory.

Prisoner of the Comanches
8 pp · western-frontier

When a well-dressed lawyer hires Monte Hale to guide him through the mountains in search of a girl stolen by Comanches years ago, the cowpoke agrees—hoping to reunite her with her father's estate. As Monte tracks down the tribe and locates the captive woman now called Maribai, danger mounts from all sides: the Comanches pursuing their escape, treacherous mountain terrain, and a shocking betrayal that puts everyone in peril.

One in a Million
0.75 pp · humor; western-frontier

Loco Lew spends an hour on his hands and knees hunting for a penny he dropped, and when asked what he'd do if he found a million dollars, he reveals an unexpectedly generous philosophy about returning lost money to the poor. It's a quick, charming gag that pokes fun at Loco Lew's peculiar priorities and kind heart.

Dangerous Discovery
4 pp · western-frontier

Young Falcon races to help when he hears a desperate scream in the foothills, only to find an old prospector celebrating his discovery of a rich ore vein—but two claim jumpers have been watching, and they kidnap the man while Young Falcon is away fetching him a horse. Using his keen tracking skills and fighting prowess, Young Falcon must catch up to the villains before they silence their captive for good.

More or Less
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

Cactus Brain gets assigned to wash dishes by the boss, but his clumsy mishaps turn the chore into a comedy of breakage—until he finds an unexpected (if dubious) way to solve the problem. It's a quick frontier gag that proves sometimes the simplest solution is the most ridiculous one.

The Great Triumph
7 pp · western-frontier

When Gabby Hayes learns that a young girl's prized palomino colt, Mustard, is gravely ill, he races to the nearest town determined to bring back a doctor—even if he has to drag one there by force. What he doesn't realize is that the man he's captured isn't a real physician at all, but a fugitive with darker plans, and a satchel full of stolen money tucked away. As circumstances spiral out of control at the ranch, a single homemade remedy and a case of mistaken identity will decide whether the colt survives and whether justice prevails.

The Secret of the Hollow Anvil
9 pp · western-frontier

Tom Mix volunteers to cover for the ailing town blacksmith Matt, but a robbery at the assayer's office draws him and Sheriff Mike Shaw into pursuit across the foothills. When the thieves slip through their grasp and hide the stolen gold in a hollowed-out anvil at the blacksmith shop, Tom must piece together the puzzle before the crooks realize their mistake—and return to reclaim their prize.

Clouded Issue
0.5 pp · humor

A waiter serves up a cloudy glass of milk, only to have a customer complain—but the mix-up that follows reveals the real problem isn't what's in the glass. "Clouded Issue" is a quick, clever bit of humor that turns a simple misunderstanding into a satisfying punchline.
