    He's literally my second-favorite writer next to Alan Moore. The entire Preacher and Battlefields series along with both of his Punisher runs are pure graphic novel gold.

    Absolute preacher is one of the most beautiful comic book of all time. It's glorious. Love Steve and Garth. They were a great team.

      @GodLovesComics 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      By "beautiful" I assume you mean tasteless and grotesque? And yes I read it when it was first coming out with a mixture of fascination peppered with disgust. It's entertaining, but often engages in shock value for its own sake and after awhile that became Ennis's calling card to the point of being cliche.

      I didn't know he'd passed on. Dillon was one the best true storytellers in the business. He could convey so much through the expressions of his characters that thought balloons were redundant. As good as Kirby in many ways, and a more polished pure artist. Rip Mr Dillon.
