I was wondering if you were familiar with him.<BR/>Facially, it looks like they're ripping off/inspired by Jonah Hex AND the Amazing Colossal Man. Originality or lack thereof aside, I think some of the covers are cool.<BR/><BR/>Gallery:<BR/><BR/>http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.pixeltube.com/wmc/scdata/e95s.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pixeltube.com/wmc/efilesa.html&h=90&w=67&sz=3&hl=en&start=14&tbnid=lQKt9gGNQSN7WM:&tbnh=78&tbnw=58&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dpenalva,%2Bart%26gbv%3D2%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG%26ie%3DUTF-8<BR/><BR/>Sheesh!<BR/>Check out covers, 61, 67, and 70.<BR/>67 and 70 are pretty cool, and the visual connection to Hex and Colossal more obvious.<BR/><BR/>Later...<BR/>These comments totally cracked me up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34993991.post-52460778918407353942007-10-18T13:50:00.000-04:002007-10-18T13:50:00.000-04:00Shucks folks.

For those few who know me, there are only two things I am "famous" for, lol. <BR/>(1) Being afflicted with jaw-jacking of the fingers, and (2) being a major fan of horror movies of that aquatic wonder Miss Mermaid Heather who loves to review them.<BR/><BR/>But I reckon there are worse things in life to be known for too, lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34993991.post-17392528342543794412007-10-15T09:18:00.000-04:002007-10-15T09:18:00.000-04:00Wow, this blog's really picking up the famous folk...Wow, this blog's really picking up the famous folks.

Howdy folks.<BR/><BR/>Yep they do indeed make snake shot loads designed to be fired through either semi-auto pistols or a revolver. In a revolver they are available for .38spc/.357 mag, .44spc/.44 mag, and .45 S&W/.45 Colt. One ammo company even sells the plastic shotshell capsules so you can load your own rounds. Given that option you can use basically any size shot that would fit into the plastic capsule. The plastic capsule containing the shot is what leaves the cylinder and enters the forcing cone (the part of the barrel that protrudes near the cylinder. <BR/><BR/>While moving down the barrel, the rifling begins to break up the plastic shotshell and the shot emerges from the muzzle along with pieces of broken plastic. I normally use either no. 9 or 7.5 shot to load my snake loads, which actually work very effectively on Mr. No Shoulders. But you could use larger shot up to a buck size too large to fit into the plastic capsule.<BR/><BR/>So I reckon it could be done, and actually was done to some degree in the days of the real west. Cowboys bought their ammo whenever they were in town and running low. But out in the boonies they would sit around the campfire at night, and using a handtool, much like a large pair of plyers, would reload their own rounds to keep plenty of rounds handy. They normally used a round lead bullet, but as long as they could seal the end of the cartridge case, they could put any type of shot inside the casing.<BR/><BR/>Sorry to ramble so much, but shucks Jed is normally out riding the range, and don't often get to sit at a campfire with other folks and share a cup of coffee, lol. The short answer is yes it could have been done.<BR/>Btw, Jed has been a life member of the NRA for about 37 years now (tips my hat).<BR/><BR/>Man oh man, can you youngens make an old fart feel ancient too, lmao. I am looking around trying to remember if I even have a wheelchair to sit down in now. But you have enlightened me to the fact that I have been totally out of touch with "comics" (if that name truly applies now) for at least about 45 years or so now. <BR/><BR/>But shucks, "new" is not necessarily a bad thing either, lol. Actually I would probably enjoy Mr. Jonah Hex.<BR/><BR/>Don't worry about the first comment at all either, lol. Actually I replied to you, and explained while being first make me smile, seeing someone else has beaten me on a post for Miss Heather really makes me grin wide. So it will never be a problem to me if some other fans beats me (tips my hat). Just to clarify I think Mr. Cattle was talking about to try to answer the buckshot out of revolver issue, hehehe.<BR/><BR/>Well thanks for the coffee partners, reckon I will be moving on, lot of desperados to hunt down, lmao. Btw Mr. Cattle, it really did irritate me when I had to take my western hat off at 5 to climb into bed, but I had not figured out you could lay it over your face then either, lmao. All I knew was it kept fighting me for the pillow. But shucks, the double gun belt and cowboy boots simply did not come off. After all, a cowboy has to always be prepared to fight off injuns or rustlers or shucks I reckon even zombies, werewolved and vapmire type desperados too, hehehe. I also said if you liked the idea, feel free to use it for free - my contribution to your endeavors sir.<BR/><BR/>Interesting post for sure.

Unless the buckshot is wadded very well, I don't see it working. The shot can get caught in the gap with catastrophic results.<BR/><BR/>I know there's various snake-shot type cartridges out there for hand-guns, that are in principle "buckshot" cartridges. I don't know if they are meant to work with revolvers. <BR/><BR/>Heh Google says there are snake-shot providers for .38 revolvers.

Uncle Sam (yeah, that Uncle Sam) and his World War II Freedom Fighters take them on and knock time even further out of whack. This leads to things like Hex and the rest of the DC Western cast going ballistic on DC's finest on the steps of Gotham PD's HQ. In an earlier scene, in a different time stream, we get to watch Sgt. Rock and Haunted Tank attack the two. Good stuff.<BR/><BR/>This is also my explanation for buckshot shootin' pistols: It occurred in an alternate history where pistols shoot buckshot.
