"It may be that there has been sinners so notorious evil that the fires coughed em up again..." - Tobin the expriest.
Very interesting to hear a little more about the Judge. Speaks Dutch and a pile of other languages, is a crack shot with both hands simultaneously, can make gunpowder from bat guano, sulphur, and urine. Silver-tongued, hairless, an underlying nasty streak (is it just me, or was it implied he murdered that Mexican kid?).
Is he supposed to personify the devil? Sure starting to seem like it. The endless references to sermons and preaching and congregations and whatnot certainly point to some religious symbolism. I wonder, if I were better versed in the Bible, if I could pick out more subtle references in the little vignettes that happen as the crew travels along...
