All Star Western #1
This omnibus collects the entirety of the 2012 All-Star Western series, starring Jonah Hex in a gritty, supernatural-tinged Western setting. Written by Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti, the series reimagines Hex as a bounty hunter in the late 19th century, often teaming up with Dr. Amadeus Arkham to solve macabre mysteries across the frontier. The volume also includes tie-ins to DC's New 52 universe, blending classic Western tropes with horror and dark fantasy elements.
"Showdown at House Arkham" kicks off All Star Western #1 with a grim Western mystery: when a string of murders targets prostitutes, hard-boiled detective Lofton calls in the notorious bounty hunter Jonah Hex. Assisted by a doctor with a peculiar gift for reading minds, Hex ventures into a town steeped in secrets—where every shadow might be hiding a killer. Written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray, with moody art by Moritat and colors by Gabriel Bautista, this issue’s cover by Moritat captures the tension with a stark, haunting image.
In the lawless frontier of All Star Western #1, a string of brutal murders shakes a dusty town, leaving only silence and suspicion in their wake. When Detective Lofton calls in the grim bounty hunter Jonah Hex, he’s paired with a mysterious doctor whose unsettling ability to read minds may be the key to unraveling the killer’s identity—though not all secrets are meant to be uncovered.
