Story
After defeating the natives, Gina gets injured and now Jonah
Hex tells her a bed-time story about a time in the past as she gets herself
situated. Will Gina make an instant recovery or not?
The Good
The Jonah Hex bed time story tells an interesting tale in
his life. It really shows what kind of man he is and what his morals are. Even
though some of us might already know his morals, it’s still a good story to
read.
The art with Cliff Richards is really good and does much
better than the previous artists. So, there are great character models and nice
action scenes. Mike Atiyeh does a really good job with the colors like in the
hallucination scene.
The Bad
Gina Green is still an unlikable character and it’s funny
how much she realizes how much of a dumb broad she is for going back in time.
Like duh! Booster Gold warned her about going back in time. But no, she still
wanted to go. The only reason why I don’t like her is because she pretty dumb
and annoying especially to Jonah. I know you’re not supposed to like every
single character. But I don’t know if it this character is intentionally to be
unlikable or not. It really doesn’t demonstrate that in anyway. It’s kind of downer to get a filler bed time story
from the past when they just got back in the past. It kind of puts us to a
pause instead running along with the story. But at least the story he tells is
a good story.
Verdict
I give this issue a 3.5/7.5 out of 5/10 stars. It’s pretty much a filler
issue about Jonah Hex’s past and it gives a pretty good idea of who the
character is. So, it will definitely get new readers up to speed for the
series. Cliff Richards is a really good artist for the series and I hope they
will keep him on the title. So, if you’re looking to get into Jonah Hex, then I
recommend you pick this up. Old readers should get this issue too, because
something happens at the end that might give what’s to come for the series.
