  1. JONAH HEX has been – with one or two exceptions – all one-shots.

  2. I understand that JH is generally a one-shot comic, little vignettes in the life of its title character, but why not serialize things a bit for the sake of deepening the characters and giving us a bit more emotional impact.  As it stands, this sort of thing feels like a mere glimpse into something that could be truly compelling if given the time to develop. 

  3. I dunno, I get a lot of emotional impact from almost every issue.  Hex is the only recurring character and you learn a lot about him over the course of the book.

  4. I feel like the impact you get in thse stories is a one-dimensional type, a sort of trick where anti-hero Hex does something surprising or at least anti-heroic.  When I say I want more emotional impact, I’m speaking of depth of character and a more prologned sense of the character and what makes him tick.  The only way to really make that happen (it seems to me) is to give the supporting characters a chance to develop and interact.  This didn’t happen in this particular issue.
