Showcase Presents: Jonah Hex #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis massive black-and-white volume collects the earliest adventures of DC's scarred Western antihero, Jonah Hex, reprinting his debut in All-Star Western #10-12 and his subsequent solo stories from Jonah Hex #1-15. Spanning his initial 1970s run, it showcases Hex's gritty, morally complex journeys through the Old West, written by Michael Fleisher and drawn by artists like Tony DeZúñiga. As part of the budget-friendly Showcase Presents line, it offers a comprehensive look at the character's origins and early exploits in a thick, phone-book-style edition.
In "Welcome to Paradise," Jonah Hex finds himself caught between loyalty and vengeance when he saves the life of a Pawnee Chief's daughter. After the tribe that once sheltered him is decimated by blankets tainted with smallpox, Hex sets out to confront the man responsible—driven by grief and a promise to the dead. Written by John Albano and illustrated with gritty precision by Tony DeZuniga, this standout issue from the Showcase Presents series captures the raw, haunting tone of the Western frontier, with a cover by Luis Dominguez that perfectly frames Hex’s grim resolve.
