Preacher, Volume 4: Ancient History by Garth Ennis
4.0
The fourth trade of preacher starts with an intro by Garth Ennis where he declares his love to westerns. Those few pages got me so psyched because I can find myself in the love for westerns that Ennis describes here.
the rest of the book are three stories about some of the other characters in the preacher series. The first story is an over the top western origin story of the saint of killers, the second story is the origin story of Arseface, which is a tale filled with nineties references and teenage drama. And the third story is a spoof of typical action movies with Jody and TC as the main characters.
These stories where funny and brutal but they were essential genre exercises. In the main preacher series there is another layer present that was missing here. But still three very entertaining stories.
