Rock solid old west horror tale that gripped from the beginning. Seems to be one thing but has a satisfying twist. Starts dark and just keeps getting darker until it’s pitch black. Only downside is there is not a lot to this one off story but I loved the art work and dialogue. Words were clean and true and the art was kind of a dark brushed chalk version of rotoscoping from the Ralph Bakshi animation days. Grizzly fun.
