To Hell and Back

It's been a long and difficult road for John Constantine – one that's left him with demon's blood in his veins and dead friends' voices in his head.

Still, with his sharp tongue and unequaled shrewdness, the sorcerer from Liverpool has manged to raise himself to a position as rarefied as it is dangerous: being the magician of last resort for a world under constant siege from the forces of chaos and evil. That same rough path has also sharpened his mind, and taught him a thing or two about ruthlessness. Now, with the outcome of an ancient prophecy hanging on his actions, it's time for Constantine to bring the scales of justice back into balance – at Hell's expense.

Continuing the collection of original Hellblazer writer Jaime Delano's celebrated run on this signature Vertigo series. Collecting: Hellblazer 10-13, Annual 1; The Horrorist 1-2

In The Fear Machine, John Constantine looks for a way to reconnect to humanity -- but how can such a man ever find inner peace? Constantine finds himself encamped with a new-age pagan group that's tapping into their own psychic abilities -- but a defense contractor is out to exploit their powers. Is the company's aim just political, or is it something much more sinister?

After surviving confrontations with demos, elementals, cultists and serial killers, John Constantine now faces the one enemy he can't outrun or outwit - his own malfunctioning flesh.

Decades of chain smoking have taken their inevitable toll, and Constantine's tortured lungs have blossomed into malignancy. The world's greatest magician has, at the most, two months left before his body gives up the ghost, and he knows exactly what will happen after that. The ruler of Hell has some very special plans for the soul of John Constantine - and eternity itself may not be enough time to undertake all of the tortures he is readying.

After twice outwitting and humiliating the Prince of Darkness, John Constantine isn't anxious to make a third attempt - but he hasn't got much of a choice. Finally freed from his stand-off in Hell, the Devil is coming to collect, and nothing on God's Earth can stand in his way. Of course, Constantine's not going down without a fight, but he knows better than anyone that you can only beat the odds so many times. In the end, all you can do is prepare yourself for the worst, and make peace with those that will be left behind.

Unfortunately, when the Devil comes to town, "peace" is never what follows.

In " Warped Notions," written by Eddie Campbell, Constantine is drawn into a web of time travel and terror when he's accosted by the ghost of Sir Francis Dashwood, the founder of the Hellfire Club. Dashwood needs Constantine's help to avert a disaster that could threaten the very fabric of reality. Then, Paul Jenkins begins his Hellblazer run with "Dreamtime"! John Constantine plunges deep into an arcane landscape where a powerful entity known as the Rainbow Serpent intends to punish man's treatment of the environment by clearing the earth of all animal life.

Jump into the opening chapter of this wickedly funny and racy modern reintroduction of John Constantine!

The dead can’t die again—even within the supernatural circles that surround John Constantine, some things are impossible. But when the ghosts that haunt the occult detective start being murdered, it becomes clear the rules have changed. Far worse than ordinary death, this second death means oblivion—no afterlife, no way back. To stop it, Constantine must explore the barriers between the mundane and the extraordinary: the thin places.

The investigation takes the Hellblazer from New York City back home to London, where he joins up with an old rival, now an exorcist in Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Their dark, tangled history together is filled with music and magic, failed friendships and disastrous romance.

But even if Constantine somehow survives the supernatural serial killer, the price involved could leave whatever’s left of his soul beaten and broken.

Constantine: The Hellblazer, Volume 1: Going Down, by celebrated writers Ming Doyle (The Kitchen) and James Tynion IV (Batman Eternal) and acclaimed artists Riley Rossmo (Proof) and Vanessa Del Rey (Hit).
