Reverend Chuck is a Tennessee preacher man with faith healing powers. The cops think he’s a con man and they’ve got evidence to prove it, but the Reverend has his followers, and the combination of conflicting agendas generates narrative tension in Dario Maria Gulli’s three-issue limited series Touch. Illustrator Wellington Dias’ five-panel pages move the pace along a little too briskly to generate much suspense and Gulli’s story elevates plot over strong characterization. Noirish elements blend with hints of the supernatural to help make this book more engaging despite some missed opportunities.
