A gold-toothed corpse, a town hungry for vengeance, and a hearse full of secrets \u2015 a gripping opening to a groundbreaking graphic novel series by expert duo Xavier Dorison<\/strong> and Ralph Meyer<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Jonas Crow is not your average mortician. Tall, lean, and accompanied by a carrion-eating vulture, he travels the Old West in a black hearse, providing final rites for those who can afford them. But Jonas is a man with a past as dark as the clothes he wears\u2015and his newest client is about to make life very difficult for the living.<\/p>\n

When the wealthy and hated mining tycoon Joe Cusco summons Crow, it\u2019s for a peculiar request: Cusco knows he\u2019s dying, and he plans to take his vast fortune with him. By swallowing his hoard of gold nuggets before drawing his last breath, he turns his own body into a literal treasure chest.<\/p>\n

Now Jonas Crow must transport the gold-filled corpse across a desert crawling with outlaws, desperate miners, and Cusco\u2019s own vengeful former employees. With a straight-laced English governess and a mysterious woman named Rose by his side, Crow must navigate a trail of greed where the line between the “good guys” and the vultures is razor-thin.<\/p>\n
