Don't know why it was made, I know they are re-releasing the series in different volumes so it may be for that - i'd recommend anyone to read it
The first issue can be read here: dccomics.com/media/excerpts/1719_1.pdf
To quote the man: Did you ever want to set someone's head on fire, just to see what it looked like? Did you ever stand in the street and think to yourself, I could make that nun go blind just by giving her a kiss? Did you ever lay out plans for stitching babies and stray cats into a Perfect New Human? Did you ever stand naked surrounded by people who want your gleaming sperm, squirting frankincense, soma and testosterone from every pore? If so, then you're the bastard who stole my drugs Friday night. And I'll find you. Oh, yes.
Edit: So glad to see so many fans!

it's still my favourite comic, even above Preacher and Y.

If you like Ennis I would recommend his Punisher MAX run.

I would also add to that Batman: The Long Halloween!
