comment
DC Comics ongoing comic, launched in 2005, following its most famous Western character, the Apache-raised, ex-Confederate turned Bounty Hunter: Jonah Hex. Written by Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti with a cast of rotating artists, rather than an ongoing singular narrative each issue is a one-off adventure from Hex's roaming life as a Bounty Hunter across the American West. The series would also occasionally feature other obscure and lesser-used DC Western characters whom Hex would encounter throughout his travels.Published from 2005 to 2011 and numbering 70 issues, the series was augmented by a graphic novel released in 2010, Jonah Hex: No Way Back, to coincide with the movie released around the same time.The series was cancelled with the advent of the New 52 but a new title, All-Star Western, under the same creative team of Gray and Palmiotti continued the adventures of Hex as part of the company-wide reboot at the time.

Dying Town: Played for Comedy in Issue #30 where the town of Desperation used to be former Boom Town but once the Copper Mines dried up now has a population of just six (not counting Jonah and the two horses).

Historical Villain Downgrade: Thomas Edison is presented as less villainous than usual modern media depictions of him and presents a fairly logical counter-argument to Hex that the former employee who had hired Hex over the accusation he stole an invention simply lied to him.

 Jonah Hex (2005) (Comic Book) / int_1d18887f
comment
Pay Evil unto Evil: A favored tactic of Hex whenever he's dealing with a particularly nasty individual. The first issue of the series ends with him feeding a carny ringmaster to some rapid dogs after uncovering he'd been kidnapping kids and forcing them to fight said dogs as part of his traveling circus. "Four Little Pigs: A Grindhouse Western" ends with Hex having a pair of religious extremist misandrists get devoured by four men they'd been keeping prisoner and had mutilated their bodies.

comment
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: In Issue #28, "Townkiller", Hex delivers a particularly nasty one to a man who had earlier approached him with an offering of killing an entire town after an angry mob from said town lynched his friend. When Hex refuses, the man does it himself by blowing up the town church during a Sunday service. When the man tries to brag about it to Hex that turned it he didn't need Hex's help, he receives one of the nastiest beatings in the entire series. Hex pointing out killing entire town means he also killed babies, pregnant women, children, the elderly, etc. He also just seems insulted someone would openly brag about such a crime out in public for all to hear.

Body Horror: There's how Hex got his famous scarred half of his face obviously but the series is full of all sorts of mutilations done to the human body. Probably the most egregious is in "Four Little Pigs: A Grindhouse Western" where a pair of misandrist sisters have been keeping four men prisoner in their barn and have removed their tongues, lips, and other parts of their skin.

Black-and-Grey Morality: Hex has some morals he'll stick too but it's very easily to see that if Hex weren't the protagonist we were following he could easily be a villain in another person's story.

Gratuitous Rape

comment
Gratuitous Rape: There is a fair amount of sexual violence in the series but probably the most ignominious is in Issue #21, "Devil's Paw", where it opens with a trio of travelling ladies stopping by a cantina where they are repeatedly raped by the denizens of the bar until they're finally killed. It has no bearing on the actual story of the issue and doesn't come back until the ending of the issue when Hex stumbles upon same cantina and kills the passed out rapists.

While he said he originally planned on leaving Woodson's body out for the buzzards to chew on, he does end up burying him. Only he fills the grave with the gold Woodson spent three decades of his life, and what he originally abandoned Jonah over, looking for.

Due to the Dead: Despite his hatred of the both of them for his miserable and abusive childhood, Jonah ends up making sure both his parents get some form of proper burial. In No Way Back, Hex takes his mother's body, Virginia "Ginny" Hex, from the desolate border town he discovered her to the residence of the family she had after leaving Jonah as a boy. The final scene is Hex making peace with his mother at her grave site, saying he won't visit again but he doesn't blame her for leaving. In Issue #69, "The Old Man", Woodson Hex, Jonah's father, this overlaps more with Karmic Death however. Jonah waits for him to be ambushed and shot in the gut before telling him "I came here to watch you die". While he said he originally planned on leaving Woodson's body out for the buzzards to chew on, he does end up burying him.

One story featuring Thomas Edison is titled "The Men of Tomorrow" To many Westerns; The title of the trade that collects the first six issues, A Faceful of Violence, is one to A Fistful of Dollars. Chako's near hanging in Issue #4, "The Time I Almost Died", mirrors a shot◊ of Gary Sinise in The Quick and the Dead. "My Name is Nobody", issue #25, shares the same name as the Spaghetti Western parody film "Issue #30, "Luck Runs Out", has a luckless outlaw and his gang try to break into a safe by using dynamite to break it open. Only for the dynamite to then destroy the entire safe and the money along with it. Reminscient of a scene from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The ending of Issue #33, "The Hunting Trip', evokes the ending of Shane with Hex departing from his current setting despite the obvious pleas of a child to stay. The title of Issue #50, "The Great Silence", is one to the 1968 Spaghetti Western film also called The Great Silence. "Shooting Stars", Issue #54, has Hex wrongly accused of killing a local sheriff with the last name Kane. Sheriff William Kane being the name of Gary Cooper's character from High Noon. The film Heaven's Gate is nodded to in the graphic novel, No Way Back, when Hex visits a town of the same name.

The Seven Western Plots
 Jonah Hex (2005) (Comic Book) / int_da79f321
comment
The Seven Western Plots: Revenge Story Issues #13 - #15 are a revenge story of Hex tracking down the ex-Union officers who during the war crucified him. The following two issues, #16 - #17, are revenge story mixed with an Origins Episode for Tallulah Black. Calvary and Indians story. "Who Lives and Who Dies", Issue #23, sees Hex and a group who've hired him as a guide get caught up in a three way war between between the Apache, Kiowa, and U.S. Calvary. "Return to Devil's Paw", Issue #29, is a Subversion of the story type. The story sees a contingent of the U.S. Calvary kill a previously-unknown and hidden away tribe that had rescued Hex from some Pinkertons. Hex manages to get at least one survivor to safety. The Marshal Story "A Crude Offer" starts off with Hex assisting a U.S. Marshal and his aides in taking down an outlaw ring.

Whole-Plot Reference: Issue #12, "Bloodstained Show", with its plot of Hex caught in the middle of a conflict between Bounty Hunters and a group of persecuted Mormons hiding out in the wilderness in snowy Utah brings to mind the Spaghetti Western The Great Silence "The Hunting Trip", Issue #33, can be seen as a darker version of the Shane. Like the film, the drifting gunslinger is largely seen from the perspective of a young child and the ending sees said drifter move on without the child, having parted some life lessons the child will take with them. Only unlike Shane, Hex never tries to form a bond with the child and the lessons the child learned from Hex were more inadvertent rather than intentional.

Swamps Are Evil: The times Hex visits a swampy environment in the series leads one to this interpretation.

In "Too Mean To Die!", a wounded Hex is hunted down by another clan of murderous hillbillies after he had been forced to kill, in self-defense, one of their kids who had tried to kill Hex.

Sequel Episode: The series can mostly be read in Anachronic Order due the one-and-done nature of the majority of the issues but occasionally an issue will pick up on the events of a previous issue. Whether in the form of a dangling plotline or a returning character. "The Hanging Tree", Issue #12, sees Hex nearly get lynched by some vengeful Circus sideshow attractions for him killing their Ringmaster in the first issue of the series. "Return to Devil's Paw", Issue #29, sees Hex find himself at the mercy of some vengeful Pinkertons who think he made off with a cache of stolen money from a bounty target he was hired to track down in a previous issue; "Devil's Claw", Issue #21. "Outrunning Shadows", Issue #34, picks up on the end of Issue #28, "Townkiller", where it reveals the prostitute's What the Hell, Hero? speech had more of an effect on Hex than he let on.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: A semi-frequent occurrence in Hex's life that justifies his sour disposition as far he's concerned. Issue #11, "The Hanging Tree", opens with Hex being nearly lynched by traveling Circus Sideshow attractions for him killing their their ringmaster back in the first issue of the series. In "I Walk Alone", after trying not get involved, at the urging of a runaway woman he ends up in a gunfight with a group of men that kills them all and later tracks down their home being told by the woman they a group of cannibals. Only to find out the woman had gone crazy from the death of her husband and had made it up.

Issue #12, "Bloodstained Snow", makes reference to the persecution of the early Mormons in the U.S. and the Mountain Meadow Massacre of 1857 by Paiute Indians and Mormons against a 100 traveling Californian-bound pioneers. Issue #22, "The Men of Tomorrow", gives a brief history of the then-popular fad of Dime Novels. Issue #33, "The Hunting Trip", brings up The Mounties being founded, in part, to help crack down on whisky trading rings. Issue #36, "Seven Graves, Six Feet Deep", the early development of the Ku Klux Klan beginning in Tennessee is shown.
