This comic was so effed up, but in a good way!

In this volume, we get the origin story of the Saint of Killers.
He's so badass that he even kills a certain someone in hell. It doesn't really get more badass than that. I did end up feeling something like sympathy for him, which is pretty amazing for a guy that's killed hundreds of people. I felt no sympathy for the residents of Ratwater.

Cassidy meets another of his kind in New Orleans. These have to be some of the funniest moments in the Preacher series so far. I was laughing out loud, reading all by myself, and I just didn't care.

(And by the way, Eccarius IS a wanker. SUCH a big wanker!) As are his little group of sycophants, which you'll discover for yourself when you read this.

Aresface makes another appearance here and seems to be taking off on a whole new life. And Preacher and Tulip are still in pursuit of God. We won't even discuss how the scar on Herr Starr's bald head, caused by the Preacher, makes it look like a penis. I could NOT. Stop. Laughing.

The humor in this book is the blackest of the black and that happens to be my favorite kind. This series is dark, hilarious, irreverent and so much fun, I just want to read all the rest of this series right now!

My highest recommendation! Period. :) ( )

This collection starts off with a couple of specials with the 4-part origin story of the Saint of Killers kicking things off and then a 1-shot of Cassidy called Blood and Whiskey in which the Irish vampire finally meets one of his own kind in New Orleans. Any huge [[Anne Rice]] fans might want to give this one a miss. And then it's back on the main story arc with the reunification of Jesse and Tulip and catching up with Herr Starr and Arseface before Jesse sets out to try and gain access to the information that Genesis has stored inside his head. Cassidy makes things tough in these episodes though, firstly telling Tulip that he loves her and then with his past catching up with him. Can the trio manage to survive each other let alone everything else that's arrayed against them?

Once again I'll state that this series is intended for an adult audience with copious amounts of violence (including torture), sex and foul and abusive language. It's a very dark story, especially the origin for the Saint of all killers, though there is also plenty of humour to be found here too. The artwork is great and the cover, titles and closing poster gallery are superb. I will say that if you already own this series in another format it will not be worth replacing them with these hard cover editions. In this issue there is a slight (but noticeable) dip in the quality of the paper used from previous books. No dip in the storytelling though and I'm continuing to look forward to carrying on in the not too distant future. ( )
