Thubway Tham -- A lisping pickpocket harboring delusions of grandeur; The Crimson Clown -- A "gentleman thief" justifying his crimes with charitable donations; Baron Bleud -- His legitimate business fronts hide the revenue from his criminal enterprises. With the police dogging his every step, Thubway Tham decides to lay low - but The Crimson Clown has other plans. Tham will aid him in lifting priceless jewels from The Baron ... or die! This Bold Venture edition collects the complete text of Johnston McCulley's novel for the first time! Originally presented in Detective Story Magazine, this story was an unusual for its time -- two popular characters joining forces in one story. Such "crossovers" are commonplace today in comic books, but Thubway Tham Meets the Crimson Clown no doubt made McCulley's fans sit up and take notice!

They trailed him at sunset.... They trailed him at sunset through the streets of Dodge City, through the gambling dens and flashy dance halls.... They trailed him through the cattle country to Shantyville and Sirloin City-waiting in ambush with guns primed along the lonely mountain passes.... They trailed him the long way to Texas .... down every stretch of the Old Chisolm Trail- But still he spurred steadily south, a young giant of a man, heedless of the enemy at hand-his single-minded purpose, a final showdown with the enemy that lay waiting ahead-at the Diamond W ranch! The Circle Box ranch owner decided to purchase his competitor, the Diamond W ranch-or destroy it! He didn't bargain on the loyalty or rage of Phil Banniton. Johnston McCulley, renowned creator of Zorro, delivers a fast-paced tale of Old West justice.
