American Update: Son of a Preacher man!
*DC: Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon rocked the comics world – and the wider world – with their Preacher series in the 1990’s, as the hard-drinking, swearing, violent and fornicating Jesse Custer, Reverend of the title, blazed his way on a quest to violate every taboo in the panelological lexicon, assisted by his gorgeous hitwoman girlfiend Tulip and his Irish vampire BFF, Cassidy. This trio of unlikely heroes pursued and were pursued by an even more scatological selection of antagonists in a narrative that was unashamedly sexist, racist, homophobic, blasphemous – and shot through with a mordant, acidic humour that had even the detractors guffawing. Always a hot seller, back numbers of Preacher are warming up further with the Amazon original series starring Dominic Cooper as the eponymous Man O’God, so our issue #1, in FN+ at £90, is positively bargainacious! SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
