Loveless #9 - DC


This series is powerful. Brian and Mario have really set the mood for this Western set in Blackwater. Wes Cutter, our main character, is now sheriff. And he's decided to use his position to make the townspeople pay him back for what they took from him while he was off to the Civil War. The real Civil War. Not the fake one over at the marvelous competitors. He's trying to keep his wife Ruth out of it though, so she's staying by herself up in the hills around town. I think he's the only one that knows she's alive. So now he's starting to make his presence felt in town, and to the people who come into town. The problem is, I think, one of his cohorts from the war has also come into town and for some reason is brutally murdering people. We don't really know who or why yet, but I'm sure we will soon. This expedition into the Western genre is just incredible. It's nice to have a different themed book in the pile to read every month.
