Now returned to the 1800s, Hex sets out to settle some scores the only way he knows how: violently! And hes going to start with an impostor who stole his identity!
All Star Western is ending soon and while I'll miss one of my favorite books, I'm glad Palmiotti and Gray are ending it with such a classic Western tale. Staz Johnson and Fabrizio Fiorentino give the proceedings the proper look and make me even sadder this book is short for this world. Do yourself a favor and go back to the beginning and enjoy a great run by two of my favorite writers in comics. It's well worth the time and effort. Highly recommended. Read Full Review
The issue's opening sequence features the couple's acquisition of their targeted bounty. Rather than taking a direct approach (i.e. with guns ablazing), Hex sits down at a table and engages his target in conversation. Palmiotti and Gray make the reader believe that a gunfight is imminent before pulling the rug out from under them. It's an effective use of comedy that sets the tone for the remainder of the issue, be it when Hex and Black are drunk at an in, or when the latter recounts the story about her "lucky shotgun." That alone makes All Star Western #32 worth the price of admission. Read Full Review
I've enjoyed and will miss this book, this issue not withstanding. I'm hoping it gets better again for the final few issues. Read Full Review
