No but seriously. Seems like there are thousands of vampires in pop culture who can't turn into bats and aren't hurt by crucifixes and yada yada. And every time one of them pops up it has to be pointed out, like it was a very original thing to do, only it's been done a thousand times by now. And every writer who creates a vampire who can't turn into a bat or be hurt by crucifixes also seem to think that these ideas were really stupid, but seriously, if you've agreed to the possibility that someone can have eternal life and some kind of superpowers and live on blood it's not like it can ever become any less realistic than it already is by adding bat-changing etc.

So I think Cassidy was carrying on a pretty tired theme there... But on the whole I loved Preacher. Despite the lack of flaming homosexual main characters.
