Arseface
Eugene Root, most commonly referred to as "Arseface", is a fictional musician and a character who appears in the Preacher comic book series published by Vertigo, an imprint of DC Comics. He first appeared in Preacher #1 in April, 1995. The character also appeared on the Preacher television series on AMC, where he was played by actor Ian Colletti. Eugene was a teenage boy from Annville, Texas. In the early 1990s, he was so distraught over the apparent suicide of grunge singer Kurt Cobain, that he sought to follow in his footsteps and placed a shotgun in his mouth. Miraculously, Eugene survived this, but suffered great facial deformity as a result. It was the vampire Cassidy who coined the nickname "Arseface", given that Eugene's face now resembled a person's ass.
