Streets of Glory #6 – Wraparound Cover – 2008 delivers a thunderous conclusion to Garth Ennis’ stark and unflinching Western series. Published by Avatar Press, this final chapter brings the story of Joseph R. Dunn—a weathered veteran of war and witness to a vanishing age—to a grim and emotionally resonant end. It’s the culmination of a narrative that has consistently stripped away romantic notions of the American frontier, replacing them with something far more honest and brutal.
In this issue, all the hard-earned tension from previous instalments finally explodes. Dunn faces the inevitable fallout from a life shaped by violence, pride, and outdated honour. Ennis doesn’t hold back. Instead, he delivers a finale that is bleak, powerful, and deeply fitting for a character who has spent his life outpacing death and justice alike. There is no room for sentiment here—only reckoning.
The wraparound cover by Mike Wolfer is, once again, a standout feature. Expansive and gritty, it captures the wide, merciless scope of the frontier and the heavy silence that follows bloodshed. With its panoramic layout, this edition offers collectors a full-frame glimpse of the atmosphere Ennis and Wolfer have painstakingly built across the series—dusty, violent, and unforgiving. The artwork pairs perfectly with the story’s tone: harsh lines, sombre hues, and expressions etched with exhaustion and resolve.
Ennis uses this final chapter not just to end a story, but to make a statement. Joseph R. Dunn is not a hero. He is a man forged by conflict and shaped by a world that no longer has a place for him. This issue explores the cost of clinging to outdated ideals, and what happens when the world moves on without you. It's a sobering message, delivered with all the grit and nuance that Ennis is known for.
For readers and collectors of mature, historically grounded storytelling, Streets of Glory #6 (Wraparound Cover) is a vital addition. It closes the series with weight and consequence, and the wraparound format offers a visual send-off as cinematic as it is poignant.
