 Amazon.com: The Punisher Vol. 1: Welcome Back, Frank: Books: Garth Ennis,Steve Dillon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Helmed by the creative team of Garth Ennis (who really is a cleverly insane British fellow) and Steve Dillon (a solemn artist that has a calm way to his art), the Punisher came back in a very strong sense of the manner.
Two crazy yahoos like Ennis and Dillon can provide the story and storyboard to guarantee the capture the essence of the character and make for a successful flick just like the miniseries and TPB were.
Credit also goes to inker Jimmy Palmiotti for making Dillon's art as stunning as it is. Palmiotti adds a depth to the pencils that once again reinforces his reputation as one of the best inkers in the industry.

 Comics2Film: Preacher (Archives)
Last year, Ennis told Comics Buyer's Guide that he and co-creator Steve Dillon were waiting for a film deal that would give them creative control over their characters.
"Steve Dillon and I have decided that we'll wait until someone agrees to give us creative control." With the comic going strong, they'd rather do that than to make tons of money and a bad movie.
By creative control Ennis says he means they would "allow me to write the script, Steve to do the storyboards, and we'll make this thing as watertight as possible so nothing can go wrong." Ennis expects the Preacher comic to wrap up in a little over three years from now.

Steve Dillon had alternated with Dave Lloyd as back-up strip artist in the early days of the Weekly, but after half a dozen stories (including Cyberleader Kroton and Abslom Daak), he disappeared to fresh woods and pastures new.
Those back-up strips were some of his earliest work, but The Moderator looks much more like the Steve Dillon we know and love from Judge Dredd, Preacher and more.
That should theoretically be the lamest cliffhanger ever, but Steve gives us a big headshot of a worried Doctor vanishing into the flness and somehow it's really dramatic.

Having said this, there is talk of a film being made of this, which writer Garth Ennis is said to be scripting.

 Graphic novel review - Preacher: Salvation - Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon
This is achieved by having Jesse stumble upon a town in turmoil - the Salvation of the title - that needs a hard lawman to bring a local capitalist megalomaniac (not to mention murderer and pervert) into line.
The book features wonderful storytelling from Ennis and Dillon, with the usual bizarre mixture of extreme tenderness and healthy dashes of violence and depravity.
This is a great story focusing on the human elements of the series' main character, adding another unmissable volume to the already essential Preacher series.

) Steve Dillon is an artist who has drawn many stories, which is why it seems strange that when he writes a series of single episode stories that the art is such unimportant part of it.
The following tale does not need the brillant artwork of Steve Dillon in fact most of it is covered of the lettering needed.

 TheFourthRail.com - Snap Judgments   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Moore's story revolves around a pompous bureaucrat who stumbles onto a family of immortals of various stripes living illegally in a building, and the contradiction between everyday bureaucracy and the more outlandish habits of a werewolf, an all-powerful (yet self-conscious) girl and other residents makes for plenty of bizarre laughs.
The story itself is a little bit too understated, but there's only so much you can do with five pages, and Dillon does get in there and make you care about the lead character in that small space of time.
As expected, the artwork is terrific, and Dillon is one of those artists whose work really shines in fl and white, where you can see the delicate linework and really get a sense of the strength of expressions that he brings to the work.

 Hellblazer: Rake at the Gates of Hell [2003] Shaking Through.net: Comics: Review
John Constantine -- the British occultist/con man with a thing for trench coats and a bad habit of saving the world on the backs of his friends -- has changed considerably since he was first introduced in Alan Moore's Swamp Thing in the 1980s.
In Rake at the Gates of Hell, the six-part storyline that ended the Ennis/Dillon team's tenure on the book, all of those facets of Constantine's character coexist at once -- save for the "good woman" part, that is, since the woman in question, the beguiling Irish lass Kit, has long since left him.
Even the First (brilliantly rendered by Dillon as a leonine figure of ruddy, Mediterranean appearance) acts out of recognizably human motivations: anger, indignation and revenge for having been bested.

But we all agreed that Steve was the only guy for this issue, a standalone bank heist story focusing on Professor Xavier and a 100% all-new mutant villain named SYNDICATE.
I'm particularly proud of this script, and I hope that fans of Ex Machina and Y: The Last Man who've been reluctant to read a "mainstream" book like UXM will give this issue a shot, if only to see Steve's insane design for our new baddie.
Dillon's ability to capture facial expressions puts him head and shoulders above the rest in my opinion.
