Jonah Hex #15 - DC

I know Jordi Bernet is a legend in the field. And his style does actually suit this story. Puts you in the mind of reading a western comic right out of the 60's. But, his style just isn't for me. Phil Noto will be back next issue. Thank god. I'm just not big on this old style artwork. Sorry! Anyways, this issue wraps up the Jonah Hex origin story. Really it's about what you'd have expected. His dad gave him up to the Apache's for safe passage. Said he's return, but never did. The Apache's raised him, and he was favored by the chief. Of course this didn't sit well with the chief's son. Eventually, on a hunting party, the son double crossed Hex. He left him for dead. Some years later, Hex returns to the tribe to settle the score and put his name right with the chief. He calls out the son, but in his rage, and the son cheated, he ends up killing him. This upsets the chief, but since they have a history he doesn't kill him. Instead he just leaves the mark of the devil on his face. In the present though, there's a troop of men who've recently slaughtered his disenfranchised tribe. They're lead by a colonel Ackerman. Jonah goes to one internment camp, which is holding a Iroquois warrior that goes by Widow Maker, and breaks him and his tribe out. He then uses them to attack Ackerman's came, to settle the score for his Apache tribe. Like I've said before, these western stories are a nice change of pace from the usual testosterone driven books that we get fed every month. Thanks!
