Line 26:
* [[The American Civil War]]: Jonah fought for the Confederacy in it, and still wears a Confederate uniform.<ref>''Jonah Hex'' (second series) #36 explains why.</ref>
* [[Amnesia Danger]]: In one story, Jonah is buried by a rockslide while dressed in the clothes of a preacher. Digging himself out, he cannot remember who he is. Finding a letter addressed to the preacher in his pocket, he assumes that he is the preacher and takes on the preacher's new posting as an army chaplain.
* [[Anti
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Quentin Turnbull.
* [[Army of the Ages]]: Reinhold Borsten did this in the ''Hex'' comic book series. This is how Jonah Hex got transported to 2050.
Line 34:
** This seems to be his thing in [[The Movie]], to the point of coughing up a raven and being able to bring others [[Back From the Dead]] as well.
* [[Badass]]
** How [[Badass]]? When Batman and Superman were traveling between universes [[Timey
** Hex's final fight with El Papagayo in the graphic novel ''No Way Back''. Papagayo stabs a knife right through Hex's arm. The fight ends with Hex {{spoiler|killing Papagayo with the same knife... whilst it's [[Moment of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|still sticking through his arm.]]}}
* [[Bandito]]: El Papagayo.
Line 45:
* [[Cigar Chomper]]
* [[Cigar Fuse Lighting]]: A favourite trick of Jonah's.
* [[Conveyor Belt O' Doom]]: In "The Pearl" in ''Jonah Hex'' v.1, #64, Jonah and the [[Girl of the Week]] are tied up and dropped on a conveyor belt leading into a copper smelter.
* [[Crusading Widower]]
* [[Cut Himself Shaving]]
Line 56:
* [[Do With Him As You Will]]: Jonah hands an Indian-butchering sheriff over to the tribe he's been preying on, but then subverts it in another issue, where he hands a murderess over to the carnival who hired him, but when he sees them start to enact "carnival justice" which involves beating her to death all night long, [[Mercy Kill|he puts a bullet in her head]].
* [[Evil Albino]]: The Autumn Brothers
* [[Expy]]: jonah of any [[Clint Eastwood]] Western [[Anti
* [[Eyepatch of Power]]: Tallulah Black
* [[Fastest Gun in The West]]: Jonah has this reputation.
Line 63:
* [[God Is Evil|God is Cruel]]: Jonah expresses this view on several occasions, believing that the kind, just God of Christianity is just a comforting delusion for those who don't know God as well as he does.
* [[Gone Swimming Clothes Stolen]]: Happens to Jonah in issue 9 of the original series. Jonah is forced to chase the thief, and the theft turns out to a plot to lure him across the border into Mexico.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: He's a decent enough guy when put to the moral test, but his scarring leads to a lot of assumptions from others.
* [[Guns Akimbo]]
* [[The Gunslinger]]
Line 95:
* [[Pirate Parrot]]: Bandito parrot in this case. El Papagayo takes his name from his pet parrot.
* [[Politically Correct History]]: Averted. Hex and other characters often have the sort of attitudes you'd expect from the 19th century. Hex himself is a subversion -- "progressive" enough to marry a Chinese woman, and treating all races, colors, and creeds equally... but only because he ''hates'' all races, colors, and creeds equally.
* [[Poorly
* [[POW Camp]]: The events of Fort Charlotte will haunt Jonah throughout his life.
* [[Powder Trail]]: Pulled off in issue #78 of the original series, where Jonah ignites the powder trail with a rifle shot.
