Stories and art by Sheldon Moldoff, Bill Woolfolk, Leonard Frank, Edmond Good and Carl Pfeufer. Fawcett's tales of Western heroes from folklore and the movies. Bitter jewelry salesman Geefer thinks he's figured out how to steal a diamond-encrusted dog collar by switching it with that of Fury, Tex Ritter's faithful crime-busting dog. Gabby Hayes raises an orphaned calf as a pet and teaches it tricks, which comes in handy later, when Gabby and "Sweetie Pie" are trapped in a matador ring. Monte Hale tracks the stagecoach robber called The Owl, who wears an owl mask and can see in the dark, like other supervillains of that name. Tex Ritter: Fury's Revenge!; Li'l Buck; Gabby Hayes: A Lot of Bull; Monte Hale Battles the Owl; Cactus Brain; Slim Carson: Tallyman Trouble; Wagonwheels; Tom Mix: The Valley of Annihilation. Final issue of the series that began as Wow Comics (1940-1948 Fawcett). 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
