    Jonah Hex...Anyone reading?

    OK not a super-hero persay but I'm still digging the Gray/Palmiotti version of Jonah Hex, some 26 issues into it. Most of the stories are stand-alone and pretty good. Just enjoyed the current issue which was subtitled "A Grindhouse Western"...very cool and not the kind of Hex story I remember reading as a kid.

    Now if only they'd put some kind of Sgt. Rock title back in the monthly line-up and maybe a Cain hosted House of Mystery!

    This is an outstanding comic at the moment...I didn't read a lot of Hex when it was originally printed...but since starting the new ones I rushed out to by the collected old stories and was impressed by them also.
    Long may it continue....anyone out there tried a Jonah Hex custom??

              Heck ya I read them.so far so awesome.I am working on a Jonah custom.
              I'm a fan from way back.I have all his appearances...Weird western,his own series and various other appearances.If Hex is in it you can bet its going to be a strange tale.
              I love the new series it reminds me of his days back in weird western.Anybody interested there is also a batlash 6 issue mini out right away as well.
              I really loved the 25 issue of Jonah as a hat nod to the old series.
              You can count me in on the list to bring the sgt back as a regular.

                Bat Lash is supposed to come out soon, if it hasn't already, and I'm looking forward to it...

                  Good stuff

                  I dropped all DC stuff except Hex after Infinite Crisis. I should drop it too on principle, but I like it too much. You gotta do a Hex custom card:-)

                    ^ I know I did a Hex custom box for someone before, with other DC western characters down the sides. Card'd be easy.

                      Here's a guy I never understood why he never got an action figure. I mean appearing on Batman:TAS and JLU isn't good enough for him to get one?
