Scented toilet water works wonders

better give his ride somecough medicine, it is a little horse!

Not seen in this strip: a masked man.

Why did he come here? Who scent for him?

Not to be confused with the Colon Ranger.

Yee ol’ horse looks wobbly there!

Take me away Calgon….

“Who was that musked man?”

If he were from Panama, he might be the Colon Cologne Ranger.

Bleeb, careful in that saloon, it can get pretty rough in there.

His horse SILVER looks a might deformed. Perhaps the L.R’s put on a little weight.

And his Native American sidekick AXE

I hear he wears Eau De Unicorn, exclusively. I’m more of an Old Spice man myself.

His sidekick is Tonteaux?

So he replaced the Old Spice guy? Well, I’m shocked.

“Why thank you l’il lady, but that ain’t cologne…

… that there smell, is what happens when you feed your horse way too much alfalfa hay! He gets a might… aromatic! I’ll apologize for the first’un, but if’n you stick around for anuther’n… well that’s on you!”

Bleeb is in a saloon, no drinking

The ladies could never resist Hai Karate!

And his Horse ’Sliver"!

He’s German?

He’s the Cologne Ranger…

Ugly mask!!!

one of the best things i found out in life, was that Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels remained best friends until Jay passed in 1980

Lots of bad puns today. McPherson knows how to bring out the worst in you folks.

This guy has horse scents. :)

That ranger would be more attractive, with a bag over his head.

I’m guessing he wears Chaps cologne.

He’s the brother of the Mannheim Ranger!

G R O A N — LOLOL

i didn’t realize he was German….
