DC’s Next Level line continues to expand with Jonah Hex and the Shadow of Death, a new six-issue series written and drawn by Michael Walsh This Western pushes the initiative into bold new territory with Walsh’s signature blend of folk horror, frontier grit, and psychological tension. As DC All In enters its second act, new creator-driven titles highlight the ambition, range, and energy shaping DC’s 2026 publishing slate across both the main universe and the Absolute universe.
Welcome to the end of the Wild West. Welcome to the quiet life of a broken-down bounty hunter whose own story, one of bloodshed, pain, and guilt, ended long ago—or so he thought.
In a small town called Ashecott, something evil has arrived. Something more dangerous than a gunslinger, more sinister than an outlaw, and older than the town it seeks to infect. Something from a world beyond the only one its victims have ever known. Something darker.
Unfortunately for that evil, Jonah Hex has taken notice. Not just of the otherworldly entities surrounding his home, or the child with mysterious abilities they seek to capture—but also of the chance to finally redeem himself.
Join master of horror Michael Walsh as he begins a terrifying new era of DC’s haunted bounty hunter!
