Jonah Hex #86

Ed Hannigan and Tony DeZuniga's cover pulls no punches: a desperate, wide-eyed man clutches an unconscious blonde woman while a knife-wielding hand closes in from above, ghostly figures looming ominously in the background. It's a tense, visceral snapshot that sets the stage perfectly for "The Slaughterhouse!" — a title that promises exactly the kind of gritty, unrelenting drama that defined Jonah Hex in 1984. Michael Fleisher and Tony DeZuniga deliver the goods for fans who like their Western action rough around the edges.
