So, AMC’s Preacher
show premieres tomorrow. It’s a
pretty big deal, the first major comic adaptation by AMC after their
phenomenally successful adaptation of Walking
Dead. Additionally, it
represents the first time Seth Rogen has thrown his considerable weight behind
a television series, no less an adaptation of one of the goriest and edgiest
comic books to come out of DC Comics mature reader’s imprint Vertigo.
Finally, this is the 2nd time someone has
attempted to adapt a Verigo Comic to the small screen after the abysmal failure
of last year’s Constantine, making
this a second shot at success for the vast amount of properties at
Vertigo. Given all that, and that
it’s another comic book show for me to leach hash tags off of, of course I’m
going to celebrate it and what better to do that then with a look at the comics
the show is based on. So, let’s
dive into the shallow end and get the cover story on Preacher’s 12 best covers.
