When a town that Jonah Hex is passing through is terrorized by Daniel "Dynamite" Delvin and his gang, who had just recently blown up the sheriff with TNT, Hex finds himself hired by Judge Hatchet. Hatchet is a female judge who executes all criminals by means of hanging. He also learns from a young boy that Hatchet and her sons have the townspeople terrorized by their rule. After rounding up and capturing Delvin, Hex turns him over to Hatchet who has him hung. Upon leaving town, Hex happens upon a farm house that has been set a-blaze, finds that there is still a little girl inside, and saves her and finds that her father has been hung. Turning the girl over to her grandparents, he learns that her brother was out fishing and would soon return home. Hex rushes to try and stop the boy from seeing his dead father, and finds the boy had already gone, taking his fathers rifle with him. Riding to Hatchet's home, he finds her sons about to hang the boy, and shoots them dead. When Judge Hatchet herself holds Hex and the boy at gunpoint, Hex kicks her wheelchair causing her to roll backwards off a cliff. But instead of meeting her end dashed on the sharp rocks below, ironically her clothing gets caught on a tree branch and she is hung to death.
