Jonah Hex Bronze Age Omnibus Adds a Missing Story by Tony DeZuniga

That's the thing about Omnibuses. People like them to be as complete as possible. The debates over which issues or even pages should or should not be included in the Batman Knightfall Omnibus are legendary. But this one seems to have slipped through without fuss.

The upcoming Jonah Hex Bronze Age Omnibus has increased its page count from 888 pages to 896 pages. And in doing so has added an issue, the DC self-produced fan magazine from the seventies, The Amazing World Of DC Comics #13 which spotlighted Jonah, to the contents. It also included an unpublished Jonah story by Tony DeZuniga, which may explain its addition.

Here's the new solicitation.
