The Comics Canon

Episode 7 Preacher: Until The End Of The World


Listen Later

In this episode, Curt and Kevin hitchhike their way back to the rural South to sermonize on issues 8-12 of Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's two-fisted, double-barreled 1990s Vertigo series, Preacher. Hard-drinkin' reverend Jesse Custer has been forcibly merged with an otherworldly entity known as Genesis, the product of the union of an angel and a demon. Armed with the Word of God, Jesse sets out with his ex-girlfriend, would-be hitwoman Tulip O'Hare, to find God and discover why He has abandoned His creation. But when they're abducted at gunpoint and dragged back to Angelville, Jesse's horrific childhood home, they learn that God—and the most evil grandma ever—have other plans. Have these lovebirds had their Last Supper? Or can they somehow find their way into that Garden of Eden known as … The Comics Canon? Things Discussed in This Episode: Why don't we discuss issues 13-17? Why is God in cahoots with the most evil grandma ever? Racism, bestiality and incest -- just another day in the South! "Eff you, John Wayne!" "You're under arrest for the murder of a cyclops!" Burning a cross on your own lawn Curt draws a line in the sand! Join us in two weeks as we trade in our priestly vestments for the latest high-tech spandex to rain fire and brimstone upon Marvel's 2006 crossover event Civil War! Until then, please rate us on iTunes, send us an email, or hit us up on Twitter or Facebook, and we may read your comments in an upcoming episode. And as always, thanks for listening!
