Jonah Hex: Riders of the Worm and Such #3

Issue three of this five-part 1995 Vertigo miniseries finds the scarred bounty hunter Jonah Hex front and center, dual pistols drawn and aimed straight at the reader, while an enormous yellow creature with glowing red eyes and jagged teeth looms behind him — surrounded by a seething horde of smaller, spear-wielding monsters. Timothy Truman's cover art makes the collision of Western grit and outright weird-fiction horror feel completely natural, which is precisely the territory Joe R. Lansdale staked out for this series. "Big Worm" promises exactly the kind of gloriously strange showdown this cover is selling.
