Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon collaborated on the legendary Vertigo series, Preacher, a comic book unlike any that came before. But is it worth your time? Josh, Ron, and Conor spend a good, long while discussing the epic tale of a man on a mission to find God, and iFanboy will let you know if it lives up to all the hype.

You'd be hard pressed to find another book like Ennis and Dillon's Preacher. There's literally nothing like it before or since. But at the heart of all that, are we just looking at an old fashioned western, or is it some new synthesis of graphic fiction. Along with Sandman, there's hardly been a series from Vertigo to generate so much buzz and love among people who wouldn't normally pick of a comic book. This episode tries to solve the strange alchemy making up this most excellent comic book series.

The guys were all hooked after the first volume, Gone to Texas. After that, it's a non-stop, exciting ride to The Alamo, and the big, controversial ending.
