The hotly anticipated _Breaking Bad_ spin-off _Better Call Saul_ premieres this Sunday, but if that’s too long a wait, AMC has something to tide you over. A new digital comic book that fleshes out the _Better Call Saul_ universe is [available right now on the network’s website](http://www.amctv.com/shows/better-call-saul/client-development-comic).

Like the _Breaking Bad_ comic released before its final season, the _Better Call Saul_ comic is a collaboration between illustrators and the show’s writers that expands on a moment between Saul and Mike from the first _Breaking Bad_ episode that featured Saul (played by Bob Odenkirk).

“That episode is complete as it is but there was an opportunity there … to unpack something from that episode that directly leads us into _Better Call Saul_,” Mac McKean, senior vice president of digital media and content for AMC, [told _Mashable_](http://mashable.com/2015/02/04/better-call-saul-comic-book/). “We’ve seen the evidence in terms of usage \[of the comics in the past\] that there’s a sizable chunk of people who want to read about this world in this form.”

## Transcript

[00:00] I'm number one on your speed dial right next to your
[00:03] weed dealer. Please call me McGill, James McGill, I'm
[00:07] an attorney. It's showtime, folks. I
[00:12] don't go looking for guilty people to represent. Your
[00:15] honor, I'll never do it again. I told you a suit, Ember.
[00:18] That's a loaner, OK I need it back. Who
[00:22] needs that aggravation, right? [ MUSIC ]
[00:26] The
[00:28] hell kind of math is that? 700 per defense. The money
[00:29] is beside the point. Here's Johnny. The money is not
[00:29] beside the point. Money is the point. The day of
[00:31] reckoning is here. It will be a cold
[00:39] day in hell before I do any more PD work for this ****
[00:41] court. I was in the court back there, saving people's
[00:45] lives. Thank you. Thank you for restoring my faith in
[00:45] the judicial system. Now you either pay the $ 3 or you
[00:49] get an additional sticker. Son
[00:55] of a ****. Employee of the month over here! Yeah! You
[00:56] have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr.
[00:56] Hamlin and I. I won't have
[01:04] it! What can we do for
[01:09] you, Jimmy? What Chuck did for this firm, one third of
[01:12] this place belongs to him. If Chuck can call this an
[01:16] extended sabbatical, then so can we. You know I'm
[01:19] going to beat this. It's time to do right by him and cash
[01:22] him out. Hamlin's making you a chump! I'm going to
[01:24] get better! Chuck, I'm going under. Whose side are
[01:28] you on? Law offices of James
[01:32] McGill. How may I direct your call? The longer you stay
[01:36] here, the more explaining I have to do with him. I
[01:39] don't. It's going to be bad for you. You! I'm not back
[01:42] sliding. Will! Atone! I'm bet if
[01:46] we. If you were in church right now, you'd get a big
[01:50] amen. [ NOISE ] Better Call Saul, two night series
[01:53] premiere begins Sunday February 8th at ten. Damn
[01:56] straight. Go with God. Only on AMC.
