Well, I suppose that many some of you had their first encounter with Jesse Custer while watching the AMC series. And also I suppose that some of you risked a glimpse into the comic, just to see how it is and if it differs from the series. Well, it does a lil' bit."Preacher" tells a story about Jesse Custer - a former Gangster turned preacher who resides in Annville, Texas. A bumblefuck nowhere kind of town, filled with alcoholics and people who focused
their lives on god and church. Actually, at the beginning we see the main protagonists: Jesse, Tulip whom Jesse had a turbulent relationship with in his past and british vampire called Cassidy. However, they sit in a diner and Jesse tells a kind of a flashback story. We witness the escape of Genesis from heaven. After that Tulip tells us how she met Cassidy for the first time and how she shot some guys in their faces. And finally we get the first glimpse of the Saint of Killers. At the end of the comic Genesis finally possessed Jesse.
A turbulent, gory and funny piece of art. Highly detailed design of faces and surroundings. A dynamic story which does not give a single fuck and doesn not bore me a single second. Weird, chilling, innovative and pretty offensive. A modern classic. Thumbs up!
