Can't see the word 'preacher', without automatically thinking of this:

@mugwart,
it's a little different from the comic, but it's pretty fuckn good,
I'm especially loving the pacing and sense of humour!- Not sure why the down votes but thanks, going to check this out. Trying out Outcast first. Really hope arse face is in this!mugwart
- don't worry about the DV man, but yep check it out, I would totally recommend getting the comics too, they are fantasticGeorgesII

I didn't care for much it was jumping around. It was ok - i actually removed it from my playstation vue "show" so I'm not longer recording it.

I watched an episode the other night - had a great, amusing and wildly violent scene with the angel woman attacking them in the hotel room and the bodies were piling up as they regenerated. Was thoroughly entertaining, reminded me of the Kill Bill showdown.
- that scene cracked me up, totally in the league of the comicGeorgesII

One of the few comics I have completed and loved. I think as long as they stick to the main premise, it could be good. I only saw the first episode so far, but I will watch more.
I guess even on pay cable you have to water down certain moments. For instance, in the comic, the way they introduce his "Word of God" is by him telling a guy to fuck himself, which he takes very literally.
- seems they switched that part up to having a guy cut his own heart out?http://images-cd...PonyBoy

Enjoying this way more than i thought. The first 2 episodes were mediocre to me, but after that its great. I hope it gets renewed.

Checked out the first two....
I have serious reservations about the film making side of this.The comic is a power house and on some level a master piece, every frame space is perfectly used and had a variety of shots... wide, medium and close ups -- this show had one fixed lens and the blocking and staging was boring as shit. Even on great set ups (corn cob in mouth, chainshaw bit) - dull.
The introduction to Arse face in the comic was so so memorable but in the show was uneventful almost a throw away.
The cast seemed a sleep but I know they can act so it feels they are being held back and the comedy timing is really off. I was excited with the idea of Jospeh Gilgun as he has great timing and energy but he was so under used.
Another really really annoying thing was the poor casting of Tulip. It felt it was to tick the political correct box. I don't give a shit if they cast someone different the original character just make sure they can act!
As with all the Hellblaziers film/tv show they have lost the cultural imprint from the comics....
rant at an end - glad they are making the show, just hope it gets better and the DP/director realise they can change a lens...
God I'm a nerd!

I got to episode 7 of Daredevil and the characters were annoying me so much, so was glad to get into a series where the characters are actually worth engaging with. Loving this show
