10 Things You Need To Know About Preacher

8. The Incredible Arseface

Easily one of Preacher€™s most beloved characters, Arseface is a perky, spit-spewing, incomprehensible gent named thanks to his uncanny likeness to a gaping butthole. This unsettling mug stems from his teenage years, when after an umpteenth beating from his father and Kurt Cobain€™s death, a failed suicide attempt with a shotgun left him horribly disfigured. In a world where 15 minutes of fame can be accessed simply by clicking the like or upload button, the story of this iconic butthead would be all the more relevant. Telling his own story in this cross-country tale of warring angels and demons, this unconventional hero rises from the arse-end of nowhere to the top of the pops. A Forrest Bum-p of sorts, Arseface€™s story still makes for a wonderful insight into the fragility of fame from Ennis, who creates a character you can't help but root for.
