During the American Civil War, Jonah Hex fought on the side of the Confederacy until betraying his commanding officer, Quentin Turnbull to save a hospital and killing Turnbull's son in the process. A vengeful Turnbull and his right-hand man, Burke, burn down Jonah's house with his wife Cassie and son Travis still inside and brand his face with a hot iron, leaving the initials QT; which he later removes with a red-hot tomahawk resulting in his disfigured visage. Days later, Native Americans find Jonah and revive him with their mystical powers. As a result, Jonah is present among the living while also having a presence on the other side, granting him the ability to temporarily resurrect and communicate with the dead. Eventually hearing of Turnbull's apparent death in a hotel fire, Jonah establishes himself as a legendary bounty hunter.
