Jonah Hexs Net Worth

Jonah Hexs Net Worth
Introduction
He was a hero to some, a villain to others, and wherever he rode people spoke his name
in whispers. They say hes killed more men than Hell has souls. He had no friends, this Jonah
Hex, but he did have two companions: One was death itself the other, the acrid smell of
gunsmoke. Oh, and a buttload of money of course.
In the 45 years since his creation in 1972, Jonah Woodson Hex has grown to become
the hideously scarred face of DC Comics wild west. In that time, he has killed over a thousand
men, been married twice, fought in the Civil War, traveled through time at least four times, and
most importantly, collected many bounties and received many payments for services rendered.
But just how much money did the former reb make in his lifetime? And what would that money
be worth today? This is what I aimed to find out, by reading every appearance of the infamous
bounty hunter.
The Process
Now, how does one go about calculating the fictional net worth of a fictional character?
Well, like any other net worth, of course. By adding up all the profits and assets, and subtracting
all the expenses. Throughout each appearance, I noted when Hex completed a contract and
received money or lost supplies that needed to be restocked and/or lost any money.
Unlike other financial inquiries, though, its significantly harder to find documents to audit
when they are over 100 years old, not to mention the fact that Jonah Hex is a fictional character.
Hell, most of the contracts Hex took never stated a dollar amount. So how how do we know
what Jonah has in assets and profits? We get our answer in J onah Hex Vol. 1 #19, where Hex
states his standard rate for a contract was $5,000, so any contract that isnt given a stated
amount will be assumed to be $5,000. Assets and their values will be evaluated and added at
the final balance, after all appearances.
So we have a process for figuring out profits,but what are the expenses for a famous
bounty hunter? For starters, Jonah spends a lot of time on his own on the trail. So he needs
basic survival supplies like food, coffee, spare pants, and toiletries. He also tends to lose many
horses, saddles, and harnesses, mostly to bullets. Hex loses his Co lt 45.s Remington rifles,
shotguns, and ammo just as much.
Using the prices and wages manuscripts from the National Park Service[1] and the
Library of the University of Missouri [2], we can put together an accurate price guide for anytime
Jonah loses any of his supplies. Putting those together, you have...
Resupply: Dried apricots, dried apples, dried figs, dried peaches, beef jerky, coffee,
toiletries, spare clothes = $6.67, $128.47 with inflation.
Saddle Up: good saddle horse, cowboy saddle, harness = $310, $5,971.03 with
inflation.
Lock And Load: Matching ivory Colt .45s, Shotgun, Repeating Rifle, ammo boxes =
$211.50, $4,073.79 with inflation.
Full Restock: Resupply, Saddle Up, Lock And Load combined = $528.17, $10,173.29
with inflation.
So anytime these words are put on an issue, we will know to subtract that amount from
whatever the total is at the moment. There is also need to account for other various purchases
and services rendered that aren't a regular occurrence like the cost of a doctor[3], a cannon and
ammo[4], a minigun[2], Train costs[2], hotel stays and whiskey[2], and anything he may have bought
in the future[5-15].
So now we have the Profits, the assets, and the expenses covered, the only thing left is
to do the hard work, and to tally up all the money exchanged in all of the characters
appearances. I will also be showing the total balance in todays money after each regular
balance is added, to make it easier to picture the amount of money we are dealing with using an
inflation calendar[16]. The modern total might wobble a bit depending on what year is being used
for inflation, but that doesn't really matter until the end, it is just a guideline for now. So without
further ado, see you on the other side.
Before Bounty Hunting

Jonah wasnt always a bounty hunter. He has spent time as a cavalry scout and later a
Confederate cavalry lieutenant in the War of the States, and as such received money long
before his first bounty.
Buffalo Hunter/Army Scout: (Jonah Hex Vol. 1 #8) After leaving the tribe, Jonah
worked as a buffalo hunter and then a tracker and scout for the Army from mid 1854 up
until the Civil War. The highest rank a scout can have is Sergeant, so Jonah will be
assumed to have that rank. This entitles him to $17 a month[17]. Total Balance: $1,275,
$34,573.03 with inflation.
Confederate Cavalry: (Jonah Hex Vol. 1 #30) Jonah served for the entire war, up until 2
weeks after surrendering at appomattox courthouse, as a lieutenant in the cavalry,
entitling him to $90 each month[17]. Total Balance: $5,320, $84,778.04 with inflation.
First Appearances and Classic Tales
Jonah first appeared in All Star Western Vol. 2 #10 in 1972 with John Albano Sr. and
Tony DeZuniga as creators. This book turned into Weird Western Tales not 2 issues later. From
there, he would be the star of the series up until he would receive his own 92-issue solo book
right up until Crisis On Infinite Earths. This section deals with the beginnings of the Jonah Hex
mythos, and is divided by showcase volumes. (Note: Showcase Vol. 3 - 5 do not exist, but were
used as a reference point on how they would divide the rest of the series not collected.)

To the Future and the Strange

After the crisis, Jonah traded his confederate rags for leather coats, his horse for a hog,
and John Wayne for Mad Max as he went to an apocalyptic future and received soames and
anti-rad tablets instead of actual money for his bounties. The series lasted for 18 issues before it
was cancelled with Jonah still in the future.
Jonah was then relegated to guest appearances until Joe R. Lansdale and Tim Truman
revived him through their multiple Shadows West miniseries. Here, Jonah was back in the
west, and it was never disclosed how he returned from the future, but it did disclose some of his
strangest adventures fighting zombies, worm aliens, and spirit animals.

The Revival of Hex

Once Lansdale and Truman's finished their series in 1999, Jonah was once again back
to being a guest star whenever the wild west was talked about in DC Comics. That changed in
2006 when Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti brought the former reb back to the forefront with
their Jonah Hex series, the second of its kind.
It was a huge success with its vignette-style stories, excellent characters, and gritty and
violent tone. This was the first Jonah Hex book that didn't have to deal with the Comics Code
Authority, and it showed, also spawning the No Way Back graphic novel. The book also

The New 52
The Flashpoint changed everything, and Jonah Hex was no exception. The previous
book was replaced by the new, third volume of All Star Western, and was still written by Justin
Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti. This book at first focused on Jonah Hex in Gotham City, later
travelling to the future thanks to Booster Gold, and was an attempt to bring Jonah into the new,
more streamlined DC Universe of the time, while also being a world-building book for the wild
west section of DC comics in this new continuity of a post-Flashpoint world.
The Book ran for 35 issues and ended in 2014, and Jonah hasn't had a series or a
special up until June 2017 when he teamed up with the likes of Yosemite Sam and Foghorn
Leghorn of Looney Toons fame.

Cameos and Guest Stars

Now that we have covered all the main series the bounty hunter has had, its time move
on to the bonus round of one off stories and cameos. Many of these stories only have Hex in it
for one panel, often to show that things are affecting the wild west, or just mentioned without
even physically appearing.
There are even stories about characters who have taken up Jonahs mantle, like the
Supermodel Hex and Grokk the Living Gargoyle teaming up with Superboy, and his descendant
Chastity Hex teaming up with Bizarro. But there are stories featuring him in where he collects
bounties, and thus, they must be calculated.

Money Values
Hoo boy, that was a lot. Virginia Hexs little boy sure got around didnt he? So, you would
think that would be it right? Hell, lets add the Elseworld money in there just for fun to bring it up
to $752,366.45. Three quarters of a million in just straight cash. So would $ 752,366.45 be our
final total? Not exactly. Lets talk numismatics.
What is numismatics I hear you say? Quite simply, its a fancy word for coin collecting.
Jonah has $752,366.45, which equals $20,382,294.84 today. But Jonah wasn't paid in todays
currency though. He was paid in old currency from 1800s like legal tender notes, Confederate
notes, gold dollars and the eagle currencies. (Thats right, The U.S.A. once had a currency
called the Eagle. Doesnt get more patriotic than that.) All that old money has value in todays
market, and thus, that $20 million turns into a lot more if tallied up.
Pre Bounty Dollars

For instance, let's look at just his pre bounty hunting money. Using the Numismatic
Guaranty Corporation, or NCG for short, database on coin values[21], and various auction sites to
compare confederate currency[18-20], we can show how much that moneys worth today.
Confederate Dollars: Army Scout Dollars:

16 61 $20 bills = $3,600 36 54 $5 coins = $128,700 24 54 $1 coins = $43,200
+
$27,260 $2,716,200 $444,600
+
$3,188,060
Bounty Hunting Money

So if $5,320 can turn into $3,188,060, imagine what the rest of the $752,366.45 will turn
into? However, there is a problem. There is no way to determine how much of that money is in
paper currency, and how much of it is in coined currency. So here is where we enter the realm
of conjecture.
To determine the values, lets assume an even split between the two currencies. That
leaves us with half of the money in cash, and half of it in coin. We still aren't done, though, as
coins and paper minted and printed different years have different values, not to mention the mint
they came from affects price as well. So lets also assume Hex was paid in the most current
currency available each time and use that to divide the halved bounty money equally between
his years active as a bounty hunter, which was 38 years, 1866 to 1904. Taking out the money
gained before bounty hunting, the divided sum equals $9,829.56 in coins and cash each. Lets
also assume Hex was efficient and wanted the smallest amount of bills and coins possible to get
to that amount each year. For coins, this equals 491 double eagles, 1 half eagle, and 4 gold
dollars. For paper money, this equals 98 $100 bills, and 1 $20, bill, 1 $5 bill, and 4 $1 bills. 1
50, 5, and 1 coins are needed for both the coin and paper money both, so it will be doubled.
Once again using the NCG database[21], and once more looking at comparable prices on
auction sites for the paper money[22-27], we can once more figure out the total of the cash Hex
received.

Other Totals
Okay, so thats a lot. That $749,866.45 turns into $281,066,933.50 in todays money.
That has to be the final balance, right? Not just yet. Hex also received other valuables as
payment for his services instead of cash. Things like rare pesos, claims to land out in Utah and
New Mexico, an antique pocket watch, and 30% of a Wayne casino. He also had spent some
money when he was out in modern day, so that will have to be subtracted from the final total as
well. For totals like the peso, I simply used the NCG database once more[21]. But for things like
the soames, the land claims, and the trinkets, I had to look for more detailed sources[28-31].
Now let's talk about the casino, In All Star Western Vol. 3 #18, Jonah Hex is rewarded
30% of the Wayne Casino by Alan Wayne himself for recovering his wife from the hands of
Vandal Savage in a plague ridden part of Gotham City. Since Gotham is often stated to be in
New Jersey, its safe to assume that the casino would be comparable to the casinos in Atlantic
City. Looking at the Most recent revenue reports of the Atlantic City casinos[32], I picked the most
successful one, The Borgata. (Cause its a Wayne casino, of course its gonna be the most
successful.) Today, the Borgata has a net worth of over 2 billion! We take 30% of it for todays
balance, bring it through the inflation calculator[16] for the 1800s balance, and combine it all with
the other totals, and you have...
Pesos Total Balance: $100,000, $4,500,000 with inflation.
Soames Total Balance: Chemical tablets for purifying water. Value in todays market is
$1.40 $12,953, $18,134.20 today.
Land Claims Total Balance: $1,000, $1,004,720 with inflation.
Trinkets Total Balance: $25, $25,500 with inflation.
Casino Balance: $2 8,973,129.80, $784,966,500 with inflation
Modern Balance: $3,915.59, $7,397 with inflation. To be subtracted from final balance.
With these other totals figured out, we have all we need to get the final balance!
Final Balance
So now all thats left is to is to add it all up, and see what we get! A couple words before
that though. First Off, this total was always going to be a ballpark number, we truly dont know
how much of the total balance is is coins or cash. There is also no way to know the individual
prices of things like hotels, drinks, and other supplies throughout every fictional town in the
west. Not to mention there may just be things I missed that could add or subtract from the total
in and of itself. Now, lets stop stalling, and see that final number! Our final balance is

Conclusion
Thats right folks, Jonah Woodson Hex is a billionaire today. Its truly mind-boggling to
think about how one guy got all this money from killing.
A couple thanks are needed for helping to achieve this crazy project. Thanks to Dwayne
The Canoe Guy for going through the trouble of figuring out the timelines and providing great
content. You can find him at jonahhex.blogspot.com. Thanks to Susan Hillwig, whose blog
helped fill in the gap on some instances with Hex in the Nineties. You can find her at
susanhillwig.blogspot.com. Thanks to Darren Daza, whose Jonah Hex Corral Site was a big
help in finding all the obscure guest appearances Jonah has had over the years. You can find
him at lonely.geek.nz. Thanks to Max Dweck helping me find some of the books I needed to
complete this project, as well as helping proofread this and providing creative feedback. You
can see his other work in Marvel TL;DR on the Marvel Entertainment Youtube channel. Thanks
to Zachary Jenkins, for creative feedback on how to make this a more pleasant read, and
suggesting where might be best to post this. You can find him at xavierfiles.com. Thanks to
/u/vgulla and /u/bn00880 for helping with the proper citation of my sources and making a proper
bibliography, as my citation generator was being poo poo at the time. You can find them on
Reddit as /u/vgulla and /u/bn00880 respectively.
You wanna know the craziest thing though? Crazier than all of this? This total isnt a
static number. It will continue to rise and grow every time Jonah appears somewhere else and
collects another bounty. Cause thats the joy of Jonah, and the joy of comics in general. There is
always another adventure to be had, another bounty to collect, another story to be told. I look
forward to reading them, and counting up the total net worth of Jonah Woodson Hex.
