According to the articles I've read online,
If you buy Volume 1 & 2, you'll get:
18 of the 28 Lone Ranger stories
All 13 of the Zorro stories.
The way I see it, this leaves them with 10 Lone Rangers and no Zorro stories for a potential Volume 3.
14 Lone Ranger stories per volume would have wrapped things up nicely for both shows.
I can only hope they still put out a 3rd volume anyway, to give us the remaining Lone Ranger stories.
Failing that, I'll feel rather disgruntled about having spent my money on the first two volumes, but it's too early to complain yet.

I remember watching these adventures as a child, and I'm very grateful for their release on DVD. Filmation maintains its high quality standard of mixing great adventure with educational lessons (in this case, facts about the Old West and Mexican/Spanish History). It would be nice if some contemporary cartoons would incorporate more educational and/or life lessons into their format as children continue to need these lessons given to them from sources in addition to the home. Finally, as Western Tales are not very commonplace in today's entertainment world, it's nice to have the adventures of Zorro and The Lone Ranger to relive on DVD.

I bought this set because of the Zorro Series. Between both Volume 1 and Volume 2 all Zorro episodes are included. The Lone Ranger episodes are not completed. Still this is satisfying for the Zorro episodes.

this is a great dvd set and better than the original cartoon's of the 60's cartoon's of zorro and the lone ranger. get vol. 1 to.

Awesome collection, it's too bad these shows
don't air anymore, these throwbacks contain what's lacking
in childrens entertainment today. Double feature of the
Old west most nostalgic and beloved heroes ever created
without super powers. Perfect air time episodes for one
to enjoy without feeling unsatisfied. This is a good buy
and makes for a nice gift for the holidays.

Filmation made som of the best cartoons when I was a kid and wathcing these programs reminded me why they were so good. There was a lesson that had to deal with the episode and also there was some form of restraint on the violence. They mayt have used a lot of stock footage, but the movements of the Lone Ranger & Zorro were more life like and loved the stories.
