Jonah Hex #5

Against a full moon and bare-branched night sky, DC's scarred bounty hunter Jonah Hex rears his horse dramatically as a gunfight erupts below him — muzzle flash blazing and bullets flying toward a dark-hatted adversary, with the taunting words "Welcome to Paradise, Hex — and Die!" setting a perfectly menacing tone. Issue #5 from 1977 showcases a cover rendered by José Luis García-López that captures the gritty, dangerous world Hex inhabits with real energy and atmosphere. Writer John Albano and artist Tony DeZuniga bring the interior story to life, making this a solid chapter in one of DC's most compelling Western titles.
