Preacher #40

Glenn Fabry's cover for Preacher #40 delivers one of the series' most unsettling images: the Earth itself rendered as a grotesque, weeping face — continents warped into sagging flesh, a single tear falling from its misshapen features against the cold void of space. The title "Arsefaced World" makes the visual joke land with dark, deadpan humor perfectly suited to Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's Vertigo series. It's a genuinely memorable piece of painted cover art from 1998, inviting readers into what promises to be another sharp, irreverent chapter of this acclaimed run.
