Review of 'Preacher.' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
"Justice. Vengeance. Arseface."
Paperback, 221 pages
English language
Published Oct. 4, 1998 by DC Comics.
The Reverend Jesse Custer is returning to the Alamo, a place of sacrifice, to end the quest that began in the burning remains of his church all those years ago - a quest to track down God and make Him answer for His actions.
"Justice. Vengeance. Arseface."
Perhaps the material is a little bit dated or perhaps I just can't get past some of the poorly imitated "Texan" accents but this collection was just so-so. The characters are interesting and the story arcs are intriguing so I will continue reading the series but if it weren't for the upcoming film I probably wouldn't bother. I have to say the art is also a big pull for me. Scenes of bullets tearing off jaws have never been so vivid. So, hey, plus one star for creative destruction.
