Preacher

recently bought and read the series.

I have mixed feelings about this one. the story was interesting ... i liked the artwork... but for the most part it left me kind of cold.

i found too much of it forced. every gunshot had to tear a face or limb off. every badguy spoke exactly the same way (incredibly foul mouths)

The messages were (as they say) as subtle as a flying mallet.

the anti religious diatribe was in your face - it reminded me of those kinds of kids that try to shock older people by saying these 'profoundly sacriligeous' things (when the older people - with brains - just roll their eyes)

i dunno ... parts were ok. most of it was pretty obvious and overstated.
