My favorite Garth Ennis story is from his run on HELLBLAZER. Dangerous Habits, and i dont say that because ethat story arc lays the ground work for the movie but after reading the trade paper back i got a really good look at Jonh Constantin’s Psychology. I could relate to him, i felt like he was Hank Moody of Californication except (Constantine) being a British wizard. I love how i can view who Constantine really is in that Arc : He always thinks of himself first, he never has a long lasting change, always ends up with more enemies, he tried to be a shinny superhero but ended up becoming a fuck up dancing with demons.

The Heartland one-shot better in the top ten. . .

The trouble with treating Preacher as a collection of seperate arcs is that it will push everything else out of the top ten.

I dunno Dean, I think his Punisher MAX run will stand toe-to-toe with Preacher.

Sigh, Ennis’s Demon run isn’t even mentioned in his listed works. That run never gets any respect.
