Missionary Man
Preacher Cain (a cross between Kwai Chang Caine of Kung Fu and John Wayne) and his sidekick Joe inhabit a living, breathing Cursed Earth setting borrowing heavily from Westerns and, like High Plains Drifter, tending towards mythology and the supernatural (especially in the earlier stories).
