From what I hear, HBO was in talks and whatnot, but due to obvious reasons they came to the conclusion that it wouldn't really translate well to live action. i.e. 600 lb men falling from helicopters, some kid blowing half his face off, orgies involving animals, an Irish vampire getting demolished every other issue/episode, and the utterly ridiculous hyper violent gunfights.
no! i haven't gotten past the 4th book! don't say anything else! yeah, i kinda suck. i went to pittsburgh before i could get past the 4th one and just never found the time to resume reading it. i lent the 1st book to a friend of mine, who loved it, but lost like 3 boxes of books when i moved back home and thus, have none of my preacher comics.
damnit! oh well. i'll just have to smoke a lot of weed, lose my short term memory and forget what you just said (already done), round up my preacher books i already have (working on it), then buy the remaining ones (which i shall), then start reading the whole series again and be pleasently surprised
That panel loses something without two pages of Starr walking around staring at progressively bigger and bigger tank guns, but it's still pretty fucking awesome. My contribution:
