Hopalong Cassidy is the creation of Clarence E. Mulford. As the subject of fifty-four films, a classic television show, radio program, comic books, and even toys, Cassidy was the true fictional hero of his time, preceding Superman and Luke Skywalker. Cassidy could fan a gun like a Billy the Kid. Six rounds in three seconds was his slowest time. No one in the state of Texas could beat him. That was, until he met Slim Travennes, head of the Sandy Creek Vigilante Committee. Slim was snake-fast. "Death with a little skin wrapped around it," was the way the tinhorn in Waco described him. No man could go up against him and live. Hoppy could stand or die. He had no other choice. None at all.
Hell's broke loose in Texas-and Cassidy's dealin' the cards! Jim Meeker came down from Montana to run Texas cattle-only to find that Hoppy's Bar-20 ran the water. So when a trio of snake-mean rustlers started themselves a cattle war, the powder was primed, the guns cocked, and Hoppy was smack in the middle. It's friend against friend, brother against brother, gun against blazing gun. Time's running out, and the range is red with blood.
Buck Peters put everything he owned into the Bar-20 and thought eh could make a go of it. It looked pretty good too, until he feill in with that gang of renegade buffalo hunters. There were after her spread, his cattle, his life. And they swore to let nothing stand in their way. Nothing. And then they met a cowhand named Cassidy...
Hopalong Cassidy is the creation of Clarence E. Mulford. As the subject of fifty-four films, a classic television show, radio program, comic books, and even toys, Cassidy was the true fictional hero of his time, preceding Superman and Luke Skywalker. When Hopalong Cassidy's hired gun, Johnny Nelson, left Bar-20 searching for even greater adventure and joined the CL Ranch, he found more than he bargained for. He found a hidden valley between Twin Buttes with over two hundred head of CL cattle rebranded OE. He found a gang of rustlers out to steal the rest of CL's beef. He found the country's fastest gunfighter looking to cut him down.
