@Bullsize, it's not a zombie movie ... I glanced at the comic a few time at my friends house and from what I got something happens to the people that forces them to be enraged and just start killing people in the most brutal way. It's really good I just never got to into it because it's really not my thing as far as a comic.

This is great news. Crossed is awesome.

For anyone who doesn't know what the Crossed are, they're pretty much the Reavers (from Firefly) and bloody happy about it.

I read the first couple of issues. I'm an Ennis fan but this is an example of him running away from solid writing in favor of shock tactics..The Boys which started off well suffered the same.

This is gonna be an evil and hardcore movie. Ror@ Agree with you on that one. Started following Ennis since his run on Punisher, then collected his greatest hits like Preacher and Hellblazer. Better storys with more shocking circumstances since you were more emotionaly invested in the charachter.

Dude, that's so not it. Give it another try, at least check out the third issue.

I mean sure, it is the sickest thing he's ever written, and yes, one of the characters is a large fireman who packs the rotting member of a horse as a weapon. But the sick things are treated as such, they resonate with the characters after they'd happened, rather than being handwaved once the novelty wears off.

Crossed had nothing new to offer. I found it very boring. Not interested

Well Frank, we seem to have pretty similar taste so I will give it another go. But you have to admit that he really hasn't been able to come close to Preacher..but then what does I guess!
