Fan Casting Jesse Custer in View Askew's Preacher

A small-town Texas preacher with a whiskey habit, a pack of Marlboros, and the literal Word of God burning in his throat. Possessed by Genesis—the offspring of an angel and a demon—Jesse can command anyone to do anything, a power he inherited when the entity crashed through his church roof and incinerated his entire congregation. Haunted by the childhood murder of his father and the monstrous grandmother who raised him through torture, he hits the road to find the God who quit on creation, determined to be one of the good guys even as the world burns down around him.
