I aim to find time in my schedule for a decent night's sleep without cutting into my drinking time. - Steve Dillon

As [Garth and I] talked it over, I thought [Preacher] was a great idea for a story. I was very conscious that nothing like it had been done by a big, mainstream comic publisher before and I wondered if we’d get away with the stuff we wanted to do. As it turned out, DC, and Vertigo's Karen Berger in particular, were great. There were a few battles but, for the most part, we managed to get it done the way we wanted it.

I always end up working with writers with a twisted sense of humour and a fine sense of warped violence. And that's right up my strasse.

It's not like watching a car crash. It's like watching people setting fire to their own cars and ramming into school buses at high speed.
