Ah, Ennis...
If you're reading, please do your part and bump the thread!

>ywn be rich enough to swim luxuriously in a pool of sperm whale sperm
why even live
Okay, no clue what this is, but let's go!
1 issue down, 5 to go!
So, how do you like your new pope, Yea Forums?
Ennis is so predictable. Not even clever about it, either.
Pope Jacko is just 100% distilled Ennis.
The rabbit is like a reverse furry, I guess
yup, it's avatar press

>adult women
sayonara my suspension of disbelief
Yeah, Avatar covers are always metal af
Is that Miracleman?
>dude was killed by salt in two Ennis books in a row
Not very edgy by Ennis standards, so far.
Except maybe for some insecure believers
We're getting there, user!
Hello? Vatican?
ennis is highly overrated imo
>image contains embedded file
no it doesn't bitch
A Train Called Love is worse, but I'm down to read this crap too.
He wrote some good stuff but his bad stuff is god-awful
That's our Jacko!
Off to a great start here
Halfway there!
>brain damaged black jesus
The fate of all /pol/tards
>just to see what fucked up thing happens next

ow
His death in Crossed was slightly more graphic tho
This predated Human Centipede by several years. Truly visionary.
Living the dream right there
...
This is edgy, but not so edgy. Why is it ”of pain”?
All will be answered soon enough
Now ye've dun it, Danny boy
The God reveal was my favourite part of this comic.
Oh, this is “the dead coming back”, right?
5/6
Any chrisfags out there who can explain the orange thing?
Maybe the tree he hanged himself from was an orange tree?
Oh, I bet it's something to do with autoerotic asphyxiation
hi, dad
......................................
oh god
6/6!
God dammit
I'm doing the Wormwood one-shot after this, where things really start to go crazy. Then tomorrow we'll do the second series, Chronicles of Wormwood: The Last Battle
Can you also do Battle Pope to continue the theme of zany religious edge?
I’ve always hated that theory of “Judas was the disciple who loved Jesus most, but he had to die so Judas betrayed him for the greater good”
It makes much more sense in “he was a greedy asshole”
Not familiar with it. Should have 50 images or so left, after tomorrow's storytime is over
What the fuck, there’s two series (and a one shot) of this bullshit? What do they even cover?
Truly a storytime of pain. Good work, user
You're gonna be seeing more of your favorite pope soon, for starters
To quote the late Moot “I hate Australians so goddamn much”
The sheer expectations of the billions of people who are some-variant-of Catholic alone... geez
Jimmy' shitting bricks
Awwww.
>The edgiest book to ever edge, from the man himself: Garth Ennis
It's not even Ennis' edgiest work, and I can think of half a dozen edgier off the top of my head. Lemme guess, you're a Christfag?
And that's that! Keep the thread bumped, and in 20 I'm gonna do the one-shot, Chronicles of Wormwood: The Last Enemy
Bumping because I just wasted an hour of my life reading this and I will goddammit see it through
Thanks user!
Have to give a story time of pain a bump, especially as I haven't read this yet.
This sort of unwarranted hostility seems unhealthy, dude. Have you considered accepting Christ's love into your heart, instead?
That is some extra edgy edge
this is a fantastic page
Well, I'm starting to see the problem with this comic.
Like clockwork, this guy.
This comic made me want to hug Jesus. I'm not even that religious.
Jacen Burrows took a day off on this one, so the art is particularly bad
Did y
Wonder why a black pope is a symbol of the end of times
Honestly, the problem with this isn't that it's edgy, it's just boring. It's like Ennis doesn't even care about his own story and he's just kind of meandering through it, checking off the standard notes without much concern or effort.
It feels like paint by numbers edginess, compared to his other stuff. Lacking in good characters to make up for the edginess too.
this is exactly the sort of thing i would expect from an Ennis depiction of god. I'm actually surprised preacher didn't go this route
mystery niggas
He still had some self restraint in those days. Not so in his Avatar forays
I was going to ask how he knew it was whale cum, but I guess when the tanker it comes in says so...
Oh, Jacko!
What a legend
Oh yes, the Vatican and their Secret Assassins. Can’t have a religious story without them
Why would she have... ugh
This is giving me flashbacks to Super Pope.
ahaaaha
Press F to pay respects/ P to piss in mouth
God I wish that was me
Pope Jacko's actually a pretty smart, reasonable guy
He is based and AIDSpilled
>this reused Annie January art
And that's all for today, boys. Check in tomorrow for the thrilling conclusion -- Chronicles of Wormwood: The Last Battle!
What the absolute fuck?
Thanks for the storytime OP, it sure was painful to read.
What the fuck is this?
P
Bump for lazy Ennis hamming it up
The art's so fucking bad.
I like how traumatized all the nuns look in these scenes.
Is this related to that alt-right webcomic that gets posted often here?
Battle Pope is fucking glorious. It ranks up against The Tick for comedy comics.
>We're getting there, user
Eh now I’m concerned to see where this goes
lol
I'm sorry this is stupid as fuck but I laughed my ass off it was so unexpected.
Wait... need a magic spear to kill him, but any old racist cop can knock is brains half out in a permanent injury?
In a white-supremacist society, the white cop holds power over the black man, even if the black man is half-god
ALSO can't Wormwood just use his once a day magic to fix Jesus' brain, since he can swap nose and cock?
Ennis is a lefty all things considered
I don't think he wants to
Yeah, that seems perfectly in line with Ennis' sensibilities.
This art is so subpar, it's kind of disturbing at times.
It's one of Ennis' better books, actually, not anywhere near the best, but a solid entry. OP's clearly not fully deprogrammed from his evangelical upbringing and all this blasphemy gives him the vapours
Gorbachev is still alive tho
>no temptation whatsoever
LOW TEST
Actually kind of enjoying this so far.
First time I saw this panel, I thought the silhouette of her abdomen and ass were his enormous cock.
This will never not amuse me.
Christfag is no more hostile than drawfag, normalfag, writefag, or any of the other varieties of fag we all are here. It's fags all the way down, fag.
Thanks for the storytime, fag
>one of Ennis' better books
You can’t think that. This is one of the least memorable things by him I’ve ever read.
I'M
GONNA
Hmm this reminds me of a picasso exhibit i saw once
SA--oh, dang!
--Y IT!
This page is a fantastic counterplay with the previous segment.
>edgiest book to ever edge
But this is not the Eisner Award Winning HiC!!!
I really dig these covers
This art is hideous.
Jesus those chins. Bad enough on the dude but on the women, ouch.
The first mini was ok, but the rest, eh, shoulda left it at that
TEAR DOWH
...did they just do OCR and not edit the copy?
>You can’t think that. This is one of the least memorable things by him I’ve ever read.
I've probably read more Ennis than you then, this is a solid 7 from him, I'd rank it above the whole of The Boys, much of his 2000ad stuff, various misc miniseries I can't even remember and most of Crossed (Which does have some good bits here and there). His best would be Preacher (Most of it, some of it falters), some Hellblazer storylines and uhh, there was something else of his I liked but I'm drawing a blank
only for the white catholic church.
Not unlike Darkseid, he appreciates a nice comfy chair.
Alan Moore?
First one was alright, this second part is fucking hideous. I can't.
This is bad, but it's not the worst thing Ennis wrote
This is actually one of my favourite books. I wish Ennis continued it. Beyond the Last Battle followup, anyway (which has really great art). The ending of that book is something incredible, and sets up a REALLY interesting story. Danny sets Jesus up with a talk show; they have a whole news conference where they publicly announce that he is Jesus Christ. And since people can't lie around Jesus, half the reporters accidentally reveal that they are panty sniffing pedos.
>Off to a great start here
Nowhere near as good as Last Battle. First page has the rabbit masturbating to furry cosplay porno.
Also I love that rabbits movie references. Kinda think of it, Ennis makes a lot of great movie references, pretty much all the stuff he mentions in the books are great, Hitman drops titles like Kelly's Heroes or the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly..
Wait, isn't this secretary a character from DARIA?
P
>page 10
OH NO, YOU'RE NOT GETTING OFF THAT EASILY!
final bump
>above the whole of The Boys
really?
Edgy
Oh, edgy. I can dig it
Ennis' attempts at writing friendship, love and human connection are fucking embarassing
kek
>until she find him with the vulture
Foreshadowing!
>Not you, idiot
Holy shit
Ha, just noticed that!
RISE
Dude, I enjoyed it. Thank you
UP YOU GO
>that dig at Star Wars fans
Fucking hell that's way more relevant nowadays than when this came out
Nah they showed Judas climbing into his trunk earlier, think it's unrelated.
>The edgiest book to ever edge
that's not Crossed
NEVER
Yeah, I really don't like the boys. Hitman! That's the one I couldn't remember. Hitman's good too.
NEW THREAD:
I didnt think it was that bad
Why is Ennis so edgy?
