All-Star Western, Volume 1: Guns and Gotham by Justin Gray
4.0
This collects All-Star Western #1-6.
I read most of this at lunch. I assume editorial direction resulted in moving Jonah to Gotham and having some multi-part adventures. It's still a lot of fun but the prior Jonah Hex series was great because it was done in one westerns. Gray and Palmiotti haven't lost a step despite Jonah being in Gotham. I love the art by Moritat.
Anyway, Jonah comes to Gotham for a bounty and winds up with additional work. Amadeus Arkham chronicles his adventures. Jonah and Amadeus go up against the usual roughnecks plus the followers of the Religion of Crime plus some slavers. There's a lot of fun mayhem and Jonah capping people but he feels out of place in Gotham. Fortunately, he's headed to New Orleans in the next volume so we'll see how that plays out.
