Preacher #1
"The Time of the Preacher" kicks off Garth Ennis’s acclaimed 2013 series with a chilling mix of the sacred and the sinister. When Jesse takes his friend Si to meet a man claiming to speak with God, the encounter unsettles even the hardened Cassidy—and hints at deeper mysteries beneath Si’s quiet demeanor. Meanwhile, Detective Tool is drawn into a grisly new case with a killer known only as the "Reaver-Cleaver," setting a dark tone for the series. Steve Dillon’s sharp, gritty art and Matt Hollingsworth’s moody colors bring the story’s uneasy atmosphere to life, while Glenn Fabry’s cover captures the unsettling intensity of the moment.
