Breakdown: Wes Cutter is a wanted man running from a violent past-the horrors of the Civil War, a brutal stint in a Union prison camp, and the savage fallout of reconstruction. But now he’s come home to a town full of deadly sercrets in search of his wife Ruth-a tormented women who hides dark secrets of her own. Story Brian Azzarello knocks this one out the park, as we already know I don’t care for westerns but this one has me hooked!
