TRAPPIST-1 in Aquarius is an ultra-cool red dwarf star.

Name the series of stories and cartoons whose main characters are depicted collectively in the following:

Tom Stone Detective Stories? There's one about vigilante justice and you have a picture of a gang beating someone. And I think he wrote "The Must Use Guide for Real Estate Agents" so he may be the pilgrim who sold Manhattan to an Indian, or whatever that was.
