Name: Akbar Abidi

Bio: I just recently got into comics, after having read one issue of Preacher online and ordering all the trades of the series within the hour. I came from a strict family with a heavily academic background, so of course comics were considered sinful and taboo to the utmost degree, and as a child and even into my late teens I had never even touched a single issue. I have since then gone on to explore many of the greats and modern classics (most of which happen to be published by Vertigo), and have developed into a solid DC freak; I think I've got a handle on the entire DC Universe continuity from the start, including all Crises. At this time, I only read my books in trade, aside from collecting a few rare back-issues, and I've also collected every Absolute Edition, with the exception of two books, and I hold the collection very near and dear to my heart and intend for it to be the family legacy that I pass on to my children and their children. Preacher is without a doubt my favorite graphic novel/comic and is up there as one of my favorite books of all time (this is coming from an English major).
