Introduction The following are projects by Garth Ennis, a good Irish writer who can't resist playing into a stereotype by drinking too much. These projects are as follows: Dicks True Faith Goddess Bloody Mary Pride and Joy War Stories The Pro Following these is a list of other sites of interest.

Dicks "Troubled Souls" was serialized in the British anthology Crisis, published by Fleetway, in issues #15-20 and 22-27. #15 was cover-dated April 1989; #27 was cover-dated September 1989. Concerned with Irish politics, it was illustrated by John McCrea -- who would later collaborate with Ennis on many other projects. Fleetway quickly offered a trade paperback cover-dated February 1990.
A sequel, "For a Few Troubles More" was serialized in Crisis #40-43 and 45-46. #40 was cover-dated March 1990; #46 carried a June 1990 cover date. It too was illustrated by John McCrea. Whereas "Troubled Souls" was a serious drama about Irish politics, "For a Few Troubles More" featured the secondary characters from the original in a bawdy, humorous tale. Fleetway quickly offered a trade paperback cover-dated October 1990.
In 1997, Ennis and McCrea redid "For a Few Troubles More" as Dicks, a four-issue mini-series published by Caliber Press that revised and expanded the original story. Caliber offered a trade paperback as well. Five years later, in 2002, Avatar reprinted the Dicks mini-series as Bigger Dicks with new material, then collected the series.
