I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Jonah Hex #26 - DC
Ok. This was an interesting story. It's brought to us by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray. Doing the pencils this issue is Guiseppe Camuncoli. Jonah is out riding looking for some horse thieves. He comes across a little farm, with a woman who says she's been tending it herself since he husband took off on her the previous winter. He's about to ride on his way, when she invites him to dinner. It seems that since her husband has taken off, she's been beaten and raped by many men. At least, that is, until she decided to take things in to her own hands. She decided that men are a vile disgusting bunch that do not know how to treat women, or have the way of the lord in them. So any that come across her path, she seduces and then kills. Which is where are bad of horse thieves are currently. They're in the barn with their tongues cut out and their arms and legs chopped off. Which is what she also has in mind for Jonah. But luckily he gets out of the mess and gives the woman, and her sister, the justice that they deserve. And then he takes the horse thieves in to town for the reward money. It's a pretty gruesome tale, but . . . it's the wild, wild west. Right? Overall I really like this book. And I'm glad they got some better art this issue.
