Preacher #4

Three unsettling figures dominate Glenn Fabry's cover: a grotesque, scarred man with a cracked eye socket looms in the foreground, flanked by a sharp-jawed man in a white suit with a red tie and, further back, a blonde woman in a white jacket who watches from the shadows. This 1997 German-edition installment of Preacher — subtitled Jäger — brings Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's acclaimed series to German-speaking readers, with the story title "Und täglich grüsst das Gürteltier" adding a wry local flavor. Fabry's painterly portraiture sets a deeply atmospheric tone that makes this edition a compelling read in its own right.
