delight in the hilarious antics of Hildegard Hamhocker, Limpid Lizard and other other outrageous residents of Grimy Gulch, brought to life every day in Tom K. Ryan's spoof of the Old West, Tumbleweeds.

Tumbleweeds is set in and around the town of Grimy Gulch, whose population was stated as 49 (later it was marked out and incremented to 50, and sometimes is revised down when the villain Snake-Eye leaves town), in an unspecified Western territory. Other locations include the nearby village of the Poohawk tribe of Native Americans, and the US Army outpost Fort Ridiculous, manned by the 6 7/8 Cavalry.
