Yeah, Halloween may be over but the treats keep coming so here is the trailer for AMC's Preacher upcoming tv series based on the Vertigo comic series and starring Dominic Cooper as Jesse Custer:

Preacher Coming To AMC

Cool news for Vertigo fans: AMC Orders Pilot For 'Preacher' Series. I would much rather watch this than a spin off of The Walking Dead.

No Preacher For HBO

Comics Continuum reports MARK STEVEN JOHNSON: NO PREACHER ON HBO, which is a shame for I believe that the Vertigo comic series would make an interesting tv series. He refused to water down the content for the network. There is a rumor that someone is trying to get the rights to make a movie.

I have only read a few issues of Preacher and I liked it. My favorite character is Cassidy the vampire.

Vertigo's Preacher is being developed as an one hour television series on HBO according to various sources. The comic book series ran from 1995 to 2000 and created by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillion.
