10 Things You Need To Know About Preacher

3. It€™ll Mean We€™ll See 'All In The Family'

Every adaptation has a moment fans yearn to see. For Game Of Thrones readers it was the Red Wedding, for Walking Dead lovers it€™ll be the second Negan arrives on the scene, for Preacher fans - like it or not - it€™ll be when Jesse is reunited with his dear old gran Marie L€™Angelle during the All In The Family story-arc. Nothing in Preacher compares to the revelations that come to light during our heroes' journey home. Kidnapped and dropped at a house that has burning crosses for garden furniture, we€™re greeted by Jesse€™s grandma, Marie L€™Angelle and her two cronies, Jody and T.C. These sociopathic, god-fearing figures all had a hand in tearing apart Jesse€™s childhood and transforming him into the man he is today. It€™s a heartbreaking and fascinating exploration into our Custer's backstory that grabs you as soon as it starts, and will make for damn fine television. Facing demons before Jesse€™s even fought the angels sent to stop him, All in the Family isn€™t just the greatest story arc in Preacher, it€™s some of the best work Ennis has ever done. For men that have had their feet so firmly planted in the funny pool for years, this will be the greatest test yet for Rogen and Goldberg, and if done right, will be the highlight of the show.
