4.0 out of 5 stars Preacher, you know em you love em so why not read some more, 20 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Preacher: Dixie Fried (Paperback)
I first started reading preacher in Judge Dredd megazine, when i realised i was on;ly buying it for preacher i decided it was time to buy the books.

Dixie fried is yet another excellent installment of the preacher series. As with most of the preacher books, it keeps you hanging on with twists, action and excellent artwork.

be prepared to see characters in a whole new light and see Jesse Custer confront genesis to find out the truth about the saint of killers.

all round, an excellent buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hmmmmm, 8 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Preacher: Dixie Fried (Paperback)
In all honesty I must firstly say that this isn't exactly the best Preacher TPB of the series. The story takes itself a teensy bit TOO serious here, with TOO much pointless graphic violence, and the bizar humor is also on low-profile for the time being (which is not a good thing here). Cassidy has some good oneliners but that's pretty much it for the humorous bit in this trade. The first two issues in here are about Jesse having to face Tulip again after what he did to her in France (see "Proud Americans" for that). Tulip handles it in her own manner and then wents out to get a drink in the bar, where she gets to hear a disturbing confession from Cassidy. After that she meets an old friend and the rest of these issues is filled with them talking and reflecting on their lives and relationships these last couple of years. In the rest of the issues (#29-33) Jesse thinks of (and tries) a way to try and get in contact with the Genesis entity in his head (an idea he had because of what the angel in the previous volume said). When he goes to meet the person who can possibly help him with this it turns out that Cassidy and this person have a (negative) history together, and if that isn't enough there's also a group of wannabe vampires called 'Les enfants du sang' who know Cassidy from the past and need him to do something for them now (a past that is cleared up in the Preacher Special "Cassidy: Blood & Whiskey" which is also collected in this trade). One of the positive notes that I need to share here is the return of Arseface in this trade. His goal is to avenge his father but he turns out to have another carreer-perspective ahead of him (a hysterically funny one I might add), which DOES really come to the good of the mood in this trade. Also, the included Preacher Special about Cassidy is also good reading. Not that important for the general story, but very nice. In here the humor IS at level.

The story in this TPB seems nothing more than a filler, which wouldn't even need to have been so bad if the humor had been at level. But that, like I said, isn't really the case. Overall pointless violence has the upper hand without the sub-plot adding anything to Jesse's quest. Now I don't wanna make it sound like it's an awful book because it IS pretty nice reading, but for Preacher standards I consider this one of the lesser volumes.

5.0 out of 5 stars A little off the wall, 10 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Preacher: Dixie Fried (Paperback)
Personally, I like the pseudo-vampire wannabies in this volume, (Especially Lilly) as well as the Cassidy backstory. This is the first real glimpse we get that Cass isn't the good time guy with a nasty side that we thought he was, but something far darker. The echoes of Xavier's previous friendship with Cassidy resound throughout the rest of the series. This one is a little short of the mark next to the rest of Preacher, but 5 stars anyway
