Exclusive DC Preview: Jonah Hex/Yosemite Sam Special #1

DC has provided ComicBook.com with an exclusive preview of Jonah Hex/Yosemite Sam Special #1, due in comic stores next week from writer Jimmy Palmiotti, artist Mark Texeira, and with a backup by Bill Matheny and Dave Alvarez.

Can the wildly unstable Yosemite Sam keep himself protected when he finds gold in them thar hills and becomes a target for gunfighters and bounty hunters? Well, maybe he can...as long as he can keep himself from driving his newly-hired bodyguard, Jonah Hex, crazy enough to kill him.

Along with the anticipated showdown between Batman and Elmer Fudd, the Jonah Hex/Yosemite Sam one-shot will close out the month-long series of specials that saw DC superheroes hanging out with Looney Tunes. Otherhighlights included Bugs Bunny joining the Legion of Super-Heroes, Wonder Woman battling the Tasmanian Devil, and Lobo trying to catch that elusive Roadrunner.

You can check out the official solicitation text below, and the preview pages in the attached image gallery.

When miner Yosemite Sam strikes it rich, word gets out as everyone comes gunning for his wealth! To protect himself and his new riches, he hires bounty hunter Jonah Hex-—but the man protecting him may be his worst nightmare! And the bonus Looney Tunes backup story features DC characters written by Bill Matheny and artwork by Dave Alvarez.
