JESSE Custer (Dominic Cooper) and co are back for a second series of the excellent comic adaptation, Preacher, which starts on Amazon Prime Video this Monday.

This series finds fallen Texas holy man Custer – who has become possessed by a supernatural power enabling him to control those around him – his ex-girlfriend Tulip (Dublin actress Ruth Negga) and vampire buddy Cassidy (Joe Gilgun) embarking on a road trip to find God, who has apparently gone AWOL from Heaven.

Unfortunately, demonic gun-slinger The Saint of Killers (Graham McTavish) is in hot pursuit, which results in the eruption of some hilariously messy, ultra violent mayhem in New Orleans and every other place else the trio pass through.

Based on the cult comics by Co Down writer Garth Ennis and English artist Steve Dillon, series two promises to bring the TV version of Preacher a little closer to events in the source material in the wake of the debut season's largely stand-alone plotting – and they're also giving us an extra three episodes over last year's 10.

Amen to that.

:: Episode one will be available on Amazon Prime Video on Monday June 26, with new episodes following every Monday.
