Dewey Lamort[2][3] is a famous writer of Western themed books.
History[]
Dewey Lamort is reportedly the greatest Western writer of all time[4] and wrote "Yamaho," "Taglow," "The Sundusters," "The Ratchet Brand," "Across the Lonesome Hills," "The Man from Ratchet," "The Walking Ratchet," "Dayglo," "Barstow," "Harpo," "Chico," and "Groucho."[5] He also invested in Tombstone's "Six Guns Over Tombstone" theme park.[6]
During a press conference in Tombstone, Dewey was given a pair of boots once worn by Wyatt Earp.[7] The press conference was also meant to serve as publicity for Dewey's latest book, "Earpo."[8] When Wyatt manifested, Dewey ran for it. Dewey hired the Ghostbusters to capture the Earp Gang and promptly flew out to New York for a luncheon.[9] He assigned Boris Mealey, a photographer from Random Choice Publishing, to show them around Tombstone.
