Has John Constantine really turned his back on everything thats hes been fighting for as the leader of Justice League Dark? The last shreds of his humanity are at stake when hes forced to confront a hideous demon thats been feeding on the American Southwest for decades!
This was a really fun one shot for our brash Brit. Almost like a ghost story you tell around a campfire, and for once even though it goes against his persona, he didn't come off as quite as big of a dick. While I love big story arcs, I could do for more one shots like this, just to give us a breather before his more serious adventures. I liked the book and so should you, so go check it out and try not to get burned. Read Full Review
Constantine has spent a lot of time trying to distance itself from Hellblazer, but it just goes to show that if it tries to take just a little of what makes Hellblazer so special and makes it its own, then we can get issues like this, that are so close to the mark on the story front that it's hard to be critical. The artwork lets this issue down slightly due to the tonal discrepancy between the subject matter and the visuals, but once again this series shows that it has come along leaps and bounds from where it began.

The issue has a cool, creepy vibe to it, though the art isn't always 100% successful at channeling it. Ray Fawkes also takes the opportunity to flesh out John's New 52 origin a bit more. Read Full Review
They say the key to getting better at writing is to just keep writing, all the time. Fawkes already shows a lot of promise, and if that's the case, then we can expect big things from him pretty soon. Read Full Review
