Look at my LJ interests. Pick one that you find confusing or intriguing, and comment here. I’ll explain what it means and what makes it significant to me.
Then, if you want, please post this in your own LJ, if you’d be so kind, so that I can learn about your interests, too.

Date: 2006-06-23 10:36 am (UTC)Preacher is (or was, since the story is now complete) a monthly comic book written by Garth Ennis. Sprawling across America like a modern Western, it'sthe story of one man's who's looking for God in all the wrong places. Not a spiritual quest, just an attempt to find him and get some answers. It's full of bad language, good sex, strange characters, and genuine horror - not necessarily the kid involving demons, vampires and secret conspiracies called The Grail dedicated to preserving the bloodline of Christ (yes, this did come before the Da Vinci code). Although all of the above do appear the true horror comes in the way people treat each other, and redemption comes the same way. During its sixty month run it made me laugh, made me sick to my stomach, and, on more than one occasion, made me cry.
I know that comics aren't everyone's cup of tea, but next time you're ordering books on line, or are browsing near the SF titles in Borders, have a look at "Gone To Texas", the first collection.
