Jonah Hex Fights the Future

Hex #1 (1985)

Let’s take a break from our current apocalypse to see what happens when you pluck disfigured gunfighter Jonah Hex from the Old West and place him in a dystopian Seattle. HEX was one of the bold swings from DC Comics in the mid 80s and truth be told, it’s not that bad!

Highlights include:

• Can a comic book truly be “gut searing”?
• Magenta meat is on the menu
• Why did we stop talking about acid rain?
• Our favorite scene in WESTWORLD (1973)
• Fashion your back hair as a cape
• A really cool looking prosthetic leg

Also, Jen and Shawn spend Free Comic Book Day in Washington, DC!
