Jonah Hex, a mysterious bounty hunter and thinking man's killer, was a hero to some and a villain to others - and his name was spoken in whispers. He had no friends but he did have two companions: one was death and the other: the smell of gun smoke. Jonah Hex has dealt with some wicked, vile people in his time, but never has he met someone who managed to get under his skin quite like the bandit known as Loco. Most bounties don't upset Hex, but this time, as they say, it's personal. And a pivotal piece of Hex's past is revealed in a special stand-alone story.
