In the past 13 months, I’ve become a big fan of Supernatural, the show about Sam & Dean Winchester, two brothers on a rather long road trip in search of evil supernatural things to hunt & kill, all while they’re listening to a pretty swell classic rock soundtrack. Because it took me so long to start watching the show, now in it’s fifth season, I’d passed on reading Supernatural: Origins when it first came out two years ago. I needn’t have worried.
