Constantine: The Hellblazer Vol. 1: Going Down


Book Description

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: GOING DOWN collects the first six issues of the groundbreaking series by celebrated writers Ming Doyle (THE KITCHEN) and James Tynion IV (BATMAN ETERNAL) and acclaimed artists Riley Rossmo (Proof) and Vanessa Del Rey (Hit).

SOMETHING’S ROTTEN IN THE BIG APPLE… Ever since English occultist John Constantine moved to Manhattan, the city has grown more magical by the day—in a BAD way. The Swamp Thing is out of his element when Central Park itself begins eating the city’s young lovers alive. A demonic infestation has taken over the city’s magical hotspots, forcing the powerful sorcerer Papa Midnite out of his supernatural nightclub and onto the street. And one of hell’s most lethal lords, Neron himself, joins forces with Constantine’s infernal ex to make New York a deadly offer it cannot refuse. Now Constantine must blaze a path through the most perilous places in this world and beyond, from the alleys of New York City to the bright lights of Los Angeles, from the mystical realm of Faerie to the bloody highways of Hell itself. To save his city’s soul—and what’s left of his own—he’ll need to work alongside enemies and allies, magical mistresses and a certain dead man. But how can John defeat evil when even he can’t deny the devil’s dark allure?
