And fans are sure to be ecstatic at the news after the end of the first series left viewers with a jaw-dropping cliff-hanger.
While all of the season’s questions, mysteries and dramas seemed to be wrapped up and finished off with a tidy little bow during the season one finale, creators left viewers with a taste of what the second series could be about with the very last scene.
Showing that it wasn’t quite as easy as it had previously seemed, the last scene followed seemingly unimportant character Gabe (Griffin Gluck) as a major plot twist was revealed and he was unveiled as the show’s highly-sought after villain.
The hit show was adapted from the graphic novel series, however was hit with a number of major changes.
Responding to criticism over the changes, writer Joe Hill and artist Gabriel Rodriguez said, "It has to work as a TV show. It has to succeed in the possibilities and limitations of its own particular form.
"When we worked on the comic, we were always eager to make it successful as a comic, and there were things we could do that you couldn't do in any other form. We made a comic that worked and thrived as a comic.
"It was the job of Carlton [Cuse, co-showrunner], Meredith [Averill], the cast, and the production team to make something that would succeed on its own terms as a TV show."
