	Amazon.com: Preacher Vol. 1: Gone to Texas: Books: Garth Ennis
		Gone to Texas is the beginning of the Preacher saga, which involves the title character, whose church went up in flames while the whole town was inside; his ex-girlfriend Tulip, whom he ran out on five years ago for reasons we don't know; and Cassidy, a drifter who rescued Tulip from a bad situation.
		It's the first chapter in the 9 volume series that follows Jesse Custer, a former preacher who has lost his faith, Tulip, Jesse's gun-weilding girlfreind, and Cassidy, an Irish vampire, on their journey to find God, literally.
		Preacher is funny in disturbing ways, it's humor that will make you realize your mind is pretty messed up for laughing at this stuff, dark humor at its best.

	Preacher (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Preacher is notable mainly for its extremely strong character-building and its focus on storytelling, the handling of religious and supernatural themes in an unapologetic way (which many may find objectionable), the extremely dark and frequently violent humor, and the wide range of influences from outside comics.
		In particular, Preacher draws on western movies for many of the stylistic elements (and openly acknowledges it - an apparition of John Wayne is a recurring character which serves as a sort of spiritual guide for Custer).
		Preacher is a comic book created by writer Garth Ennis and artist Steve Dillon, published by the Vertigo imprint of DC Comics, with painted covers by Glenn Fabry.

	Preacher's Divinity: jesse custer, tulip, cassidy
		This gorgeous color collection of the original painted covers to the recently-concluded "Preacher" series is a great overview of how, month after month, Fabry's powerful art unified the series and made it one of the most distinctive and outrageous on the comic book stands.
		PREACHER has taken the art of graphic literature to new heights.
		With its hard stance on religion and cultural ritual, PREACHER propels the reader into a new realm of thought.

	mtv.com - News - 'X-Men' Actor James Marsden Turns To God, Guns And Vampires
		Filled with dark humor, grim violence and iconoclasm, "Preacher" centers on fallen evangelist Jesse Custer who, feeling that God has abandoned humanity, sets out to find Him with gun-toting gal pal Tulip and Irish vampire Cassidy in tow.
		The brainchild of Irish writer Garth Ennis, "Preacher" was one of the breakout titles to emerge from DC Comics' edgy, adult-themed Vertigo line of comics.
		Throughout its lengthy run, "Preacher" dealt with Jesse's upbringing, his belief system, the "Saint of Killers" on his trail, his persistent visions of John Wayne's ghost, and the massive superpower he can summon called "Word of God," which can make anyone do whatever he wants.

	Amazon.ca: Preacher: Ancient History: Books
		While technically the fourth book in the Preacher series, Ancient History isn't part of the main Preacher story line and doesn't even use any of the main characters (Reverend Jesse Custer, his girlfriend, Tulip, and his vampire buddy Cassidy).
		Ennis and Dillon have created a cast of characters and a chain of events in "Preacher" that all feed one another in their own wonderfully twisted psychotic eco-system.
		As some of the longer graphic novel series are wont to do at times (see Sandman, for example), Ennis introduces a 'break' to the Preacher arc with "Ancient History," temporarily halting plot development and placing several Preacher characters outside the timeline.

	City Pages - COMICS: <I>Preacher: Proud Americans</I>
		Hence, Preacher: Proud Americans tells the story of Reverend Jesse Custer, the mortal whose merging with this angelic/demonic hybrid spirit instills within him incredible powers, as well as a hankerin' to kick the Almighty's ass.
		This is the third collection following the tales of the Preacher, and arguably the most fascinating to date.
		Proud Americans provides some wonderfully illuminating insights into Custer's late father through a retelling of one of his grim Vietnam escapades, and also divulges the origin of Custer's 97-year-old Irish-vampire sidekick Cassidy.

		Preacher was going to be the enemy for a long time - that strange, pretentious book about a man of the cloth taking on God.
		Basically, "Preacher" posits that God Almighty is just some wanker who has enjoyed lording it over his subjects, but that the moment a challenge arose, he scarpered off like a schoolyard bully.

	The Very Best Books : Preacher Vol. 8: All Hell's A-Coming
		That such a naïve suggestion could even be seriously articulated in as cynical and dark a text as Preacher (particularly when it's delivered by an ex-porn actor), shows the broadness of the canvas with which Ennis paints.
		After that (and a rousing backstory on Tulip's childhood and her meeting with Amy), she and Jesse are re-united proving one of Preacher's many themes: love is stronger than death.
		In this, the penultimate instalment to the remarkable Preacher run, Garth Ennis sets the scene before it all comes crashing down in The Alamo.

	Preacher: Dixie Fried
		The fifth Preacher collection opens with Cassidy: Blood and Whiskey, another Ennis-Dillon one-shot providing insight into a character's past.
		It's sufficient to close with a quote from DC's own marketeers on the back of the book, praising the story for "realistic characters, powerful images and a dose of gratuitous violence."
		To say more would be saying too much.

	Preacher: Proud Americans
		Unlike the first chapter about Jesse's father and the middle chapters about Cassidy's rescue, this section is fairly light on action, but it's still strong on story and characters, and it's the section I'll go back fairly often to re-read.
		Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon have, in relatively few issues compared to some of the long-running books in the comics industry, created amazing well-rounded, three-dimensional figures.
		In every book we learn more about them, and that only makes us want even more.

		Accompanying Jesse on his journey are Tulip O'Hare, Jesse's former girlfriend and One True Love, and Cassidy, a 100-year-old Irish vampire who seems to prefer a pint in the pub to the blood of the innocent.
		Jesse and Tulip journey to France to rescue Cassidy from the Grail's heavily-guarded secret fortress, where Cassidy is being held and tortured by Herr Starr.
		Upon their return to the States, a grateful Cassidy tells Jesse his life's story: how he fought in the Irish War of Independence, how he was killed and turned into a vampire, and how he began his long love affair with New York City.

		Jesse Custer heads for France to rescue Cassidy, the Irish vampire, from the clutches of religious fanatics. His search leads him into a no-holds-barred battle against the forces of the Grail. Also told here is the story of how Cassidy became a vampire in the first place.
		This collection features the story of Jesse Custer's ultimate battle with his nemesis, the Saint of Killers, and the forces of Herr Starr. Also included is an Arseface wish-fulfillment fantasy and the tale of Starr's ascension to the leadership of the Grail.

		Most importantly, we see the beginnings of a possibly severe emotional breakdown on its way for the tightly-knit little community, as Tulip is once more driven to conflict with Jessie, and Cassidy makes a revelation that goes horribly wrong.
		That's saved for the final segment, which tells us of Cassidy's origins and his adventures for the past 100 years.
		That movie would look like Strawberry Shortcake compared to "Preacher".

	It's painfully obvious who should be involved with Preacher - The Superhero Hype! Boards
		This is Johnny Depp we're talking about...he's my top choice for both Preacher and Sandman, the two comic guys he's really suited for.
		As far as Bettany, the only thing I've seen him in was Master and Commander, so I'm not qualified to judge his ability as Cassidy.

	The Preacher
		A character with "bite", Proinsias Cassidy is the rogue in the trio of protagonists.
		Like those mentioned above, there are still many more stereotypes and conventions which are used and made fun of at the same time, and thereby serve as one of the main sources which give power and dark humor to The Preacher.
		When Jesse meets a Voodoo priest, he waits for the skulls and the black hat; when he purchases Peyote from a Navajo, he expects him to chant something in order to make the Peyote effective.

		Well, if the guy was Arseface, Jesse would try to reason with him, Tulip would stick a gun right back in his face (she's getting violent lately), and Cassidy would laugh at him.
		This looks to be an interesting story line coming into the Preacher, let's just hope we don't have to go through anymore opening scenes like the one in this issue...stupid.
