That Texas Blood is Back with Hell Comes to Allison Ranch
Chris Condon (News from the Fallout) and Jacob Phillips (Everything Dead & Dying) are returning to their neo-noir Western That Texas Blood for a new six-issue arc. The next chapter, That Texas Blood: Hell Comes to Allison Ranch, begins in September 2026 from Image Comics.
Sheriff Joe Bob Coates and Deputy Wilson Hart head to the richest and biggest ranch in the US “where family grievances are blooming into full-blown war,” according to the description. In addition to the story, the first issue features bonus material that includes behind the scenes peeks, interviews, essays, and cartoons. It also comes with variant covers by Martin Simmonds (The Department of Truth), Luana Vecchio (Lovesick), Mark Chiarello (Batman/Houdini: The Devil’s Workshop), and others.

The story is set in 2003 and Condon told IGN that it is the “most action-packed story arc yet with strong thematic links to two of our previous.” He went on to say, “While this new arc has some connections to our past stories, it’s also a great place for readers unfamiliar with Ambrose County or its inhabitants to jump on, and Jacob and I are excited to bring some new collaborators along with us, too. We are so excited to be adding letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou and designer Michael Tivey to the That Texas Blood ranks. With the team we have assembled on this book, and the story we have to tell, I think this may just be the best That Texas Blood story yet.”
“Joe Bob’s back and it feels so good! Coming back to That Texas Blood feels like coming home to us and we’ve missed it after so long away,” Phillips said. “We return with a brand new story arc, ‘Hell Comes to Allison Ranch.’ A heist gone wrong on the biggest ranch in the US on the night of the invasion of Iraq. This story is the perfect jumping on point for new readers and a warm welcome back for the regulars. So slip on your favorite pair of jeans, grab a can of Doyers and settle in. It’s gonna be one hell of a ride.”
This isn’t the only news for That Texas Blood. Image is also releasing a facsimile edition of the first issue on deluxe newsprint paper. The publisher also recently announced that a TV show based on the comic is in development.
That Texas Blood: Hell Comes to Allison Ranch #1 is scheduled for release on September 23.
