Jonah Hex #38

A desperate moment leaps off the cover of this 1980 DC Western as Jonah Hex finds himself caught between two armed Native American warriors, pinned against a rocky outcrop with a gun leveled right at his face — and his own muttered thought balloon reading "Guess this is the end… unless…" The cover tagline drives the tension home: Hex must come up with an impossible solution — or die! Luis Dominguez's cover art crackles with gritty energy, setting the stage for "Iron Dog's Gold!" with the kind of high-stakes standoff that made this series a standout of early-1980s Western comics.
