MERRIWETHER: GODS DEMON-THUMPER
Resplendent behind a cover by noted Bristol artist Paul Ashley Brown, the original tag to this collection of Merriwether strips was “This year the Church of England Goes Hard Core!” -it was pointed out that this might be taken to have a double meaning so it was dropped!Merriwether, 6 feet 3 inches tall is built like Arnold Schwarzenegger in his younger days and his unquestioning faith in God leads him head-long into confrontation with ancient Egyptian deity (or is it?), vampyres, demons -including a whole English village full of demons and the dark one himself -a confrontation with Satan!
Originally a back-up feature in the Small Press version of Black Tower Adventure, like The Bat, the Reverend caught on and has quite a following. The shocking conclusion to the series (never before published) had fans in an uproar!
58 pages including back-up feature. Available via the online store.

MERRIWETHER: THE TEST OF SATAN
How could Ben Dilworth, another legend of the British Small Press era, not do a follow-up to Merriwether in his own inimitable style and, in places, tongue firmly in cheek?
This 27 pager looks at the images flashing through Merriwethers mind in the seconds between life and death.
What prepared and set him on his quest?
