Walk Through Hell Volume 1
by Garth Ennis
I'd probably put Preacher as top 20 comics of all times. I read it a lot later, but it still has/had a big impact. It's brutal, well told, funny, and important for the comic world. Saying that, recent Garth Ennis work has been piss poor at best. Are there ANY good, RECENT, Garth Ennis stories?
So what is this? A confusing mess of a storyline where it starts off with a public shooting. The shooting occurs in a mall where a baby and the mother are shot down in front of the husband. Then the story confusingly jump to two detectives dealing with the aftermath, and reading twitter, and talking about shootings and gun control. Then we go to, well hell, where the supernatural part comes into play.
Good: The art? Sometimes?
Bad: The confusing plot points are ALL over the place. One second you're in one time zone, the next you're in another. The art gets muddy at times, hard to tell who is who. The dialogue isn't much stronger, just okay at best.
Not sure if Garth Ennis is just bored now days. This guy wrote one of the greatest comics of all time, and then some follow ups that I don't think highly of but people love like The Boys or Crossed. This though? This is horrible. A 1 out of 5.
