The Good, the Bad and the Fugly spirals into a nihilistic farce set in the flaming dump heap of Nicklesworth, a Weird West town so laughably cursed it makes your cat do a stink face. At the heart of this absurdity are three factions that feel less like communities and more like symptoms of a lingering venereal plague, all tracing back to the town's dubious founder, Baron Von Nickle. Pyridine Goodbye, the matriarch mortician, stitches corpses with cold efficiency as Otis, her husband and hearse driver, runs on pickles, and their daughter Orphie, is the self-declared sheriff and gravedigger. They face a dysfunctional lot of characters from paranoid miners to opinionated horses as they stumble through a wasteland of corpses, cannon fodder, and pun crimes, that even Tumbleweed's dad jokes can't cure. This marks the 15th comic collection by Lorin Morgan-Richards, and it's every bit as sickly funny as you'd hope.

The Goodbye Family are a family of undertakers from the Old Weird West of author and illustrator Lorin Morgan-Richards. The family includes Pyridine Goodbye, matriarch and mortician, Otis, father and hearse driver, their daughter Orphie, who is both a gravedigger and Sheriff, along with pets: Ouiji the cat, Dorian the tarantula, and their horse Midnight.
