Why wasn't Thomas Jane cast in the movie version? This is better then the movie and about twenty minutes long

This has got to be one of the best DC shorts i've seen. Every little bit screams and smells of Jonah Hex, that amazing western feel, the awesome dialogues, such a good character design and more depth than many other animated films out there and guess what, all for only 10 minutes. This short animated film has done the trick, it left me wanting to see more. Would be nice to see more and more of this guy, he seems so underrated. We might not get Thomas Jane as the Punisher anymore but at least he's Jonah Hex. Well done DC, amazing short film. Enjoy

It's a pity the live action Jonah Hex film isn't worthy of this short. Hex comes in later to the action and the story is a bit thin (at 12 minutes, too), but it encapsulates the character perfectly. Few words, man of action and not a conventional super hero. A bit gruesome, too, and a killer ending. No pun intended.
