Just when you thought Dash Bad Horse was already pushed as far over the edge as he could be, along comes the dramatic conclusion to "High Lonesome" to push him a little farther. The Crazy Horse Casino is being robbed, and a drugged-out Dash is forced to help in order to protect his greatest secret. But it's not just his secret that's on the line here – his life, his sanity and perhaps his very soul face dire consequences.

Hi,

I'm a big fan of all your titles (LOVE Scalped and Ghost Rider), and was really looking forward to Wolverine: Weapon X. BUT seeing as it's solicited as $4 an issue (not just for the first one), I'm given a bit of pause. Any idea what went into the decision?

Biker ninjas? Drawn by Tony Moore? Yeah, I'll have that.

Jason Aaron at: 10:25 PM said...

Yeah, WEAPON X is one of the new titles being rolled out at $3.99. As I understand it, they're doing the price increase on some new titles in order to keep from doing a line wide increase. Not my decision, obviously.
