    Nice art, the hanging and graveyard scene are beautifully staged, but the script is a little hack-y and utterly predictable, most notable because of the lower page count. The scene where El Diablo up and slaughters Nurka's men (not without reason) but Nurka basically shrugs it off. "When will I see that man again!" Yikes!
