Genesis was the child of an Angel and a Demon. After his birth, the Angels captured him, and trapped him in a cell in Heaven. Genesis eventually escaped, and flew to Earth. He then flew into the body of the preacher Jesse Custer. Genesis gave Custer the ability to force people to do things, simply by telling them to. Genesis stayed with the preacher until they were shot and killed by one of The Grail's soldiers.

Genesis was created by Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon, first appearing in Preacher #1 (1995).
