Jonah told the chief of Noh-Tante’s actions and had the chance to face him in combat. Years later, Jonah returned to his Apache tribe to find that Noh-Tante and White Fawn were man and wife. Noh-Tante eventually betrayed Jonah, leaving him captured with a tribe of Kiowa Indians. Unfortunately, the tribe leader’s son Noh-Tante grew jealous of the attention that Jonah was receiving from the young women, specifically White Fawn, of the tribe. He was raised like one of their own and became a man at age 16 according to tribe custom. We find out that Jonah was sold to an Apache tribe by his own father. We do get to delve into more of the origins of Jonah Hex. Once again, we are treated to mostly one-and-done stories in this collection, but there is some continuation from time to time with the stories. He had no friends, this Jonah Hex, but he did have two companions: one was Death itself… the other, the acrid smell of gunsmoke…. Overview: He was a hero to some, a villain to others… and wherever he rode, people spoke his name in whispers.
