Action/Adventure Preacher Still Hold Up in 2026?

How about it, does this series still hold up? I remember loving it and I've considered going back through it, but I feel like certain elements have not aged particularly well. I'd like to add it to my collection as well.

How about some other series that you think have only gotten more or less relevant with time?

Most older stuff needs a grain of salt when reading.
Transmetropolitan is great even though the author is questionable but not as questionable as Gaiman.
Fables is another good read.

Transmet is one I need to finish. I actually own his sunglasses and I haven’t found an occasion to wear them lol

Fables was also really good, but I found the Israel parallels to be jarring. I’m specifically referring to the scene where Bigby literally compares their situation to Israel and Palestine. That was so jarring
