im familiar with these types, everyone looks the effin same and its so hard to tell wthh is happening, and when someone else tells you what happened, it makes no effin sense and turns the story is even worse than you imagined it was from trying to decipher overshaded piles of crap

It's a shame, considering that is really does look like they tried hard to make it a compelling and artistically experimental book. But, in the end, it comes off like they tried too hard, and it got too convoluted.

I love my dictionary!

Anyway, if you really want a good western comic, I recommend "The Ballad Of Sleeping Beauty".

I completely agree. I've really enjoyed DC's western/western style books lately (Jonah Hex especially, but also Bat Lash, Scalped, and Azzarello's El Diablo), but Loveless is a huge disappointment for me. I've read the first two trades, and find i dull and too slow-moving. It doesn't feel like anything's happened yet, and the flashbacks and character jumps only seem to muddle things further. Guess I'll stick with the demon-faced bounty hunter.

It's hard to go wrong with Jonah Hex. I picked up the first 20 or so issues of the current book, but I had to drop it eventually because I needed to clean house a bit.
