Trivia
This is the fifth attempt to adapt Preacher to moving pictures. The first had Rachel Talalay as the director and James Marsden as the protagonist Jesse Custer. The second was going to be made by Miramax Films. The third was an HBO series to be written by Mark Steven Johnson. The fourth with Sam Mendes direct and Neal H. Moritz and Jason Netter would have produced the film from Columbia Pictures.

Goofs
Cassidy has tattoos. However, he heals, and since a tattoo starts out by being skin "damage", it is unlikely any tattoos applied would survive any healing session he undergoes.

Quotes

Pretty good

I read the first 7 issues of the comic and plan to read and watch simultaneously. Although both differ and the pilot is not what I expected (Why did they make tulip black?), I liked it. They got me to continue watching.
