John and crew find themselves traveling west and contending with some of the tall tales that permeate the American frontier. It's here that John probes an ailing Clarice about her past run-ins with Dream's power. The sands have caused quite a stir, but just how far have they lodged themselves in the heart of the American dream?

John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dead in America #3 is an absolute must-read issue whether it is digital or physical. This series is exactly what DC Black Label was started for. Spurrier masterfully weaves themes from T.S. Eliots The Waste Land with the storied mythology from the pages of Hellblazer and Sandman. The work the creative team is doing here is simultaneously timeless and more relevant and important than ever. Read Full Review
This series almost has a bit of an anthology vibe to it at points, even as the main Constantine story continues to evolve. Read Full Review
Campbell continues to create some beautifully detailed and dramatically dark art throughout the issue. The visual style captures the eye with every page and panel. Read Full Review
This was truly a difficult read as it hits on the levels of your mind that you seldom want to look at as it makes you an inferior version of thy true self reflection. This is adult writing for adults to ponder on long after you have closed the last page in the book. This is John as John should be written and takes my breath away and leaves me sad at how I am and how I see the world I didn't make. 10 out of 10 all day long.
