Hellblazer: Rise and Fall #2

Hellblazer: Rise and Fall #2

by Tom Taylor (Writer), Darick Robertson (Artist)

John Constantine has been in trouble before, but running afoul of the Devil himself is crossing a line even for the self-styled Hellblazer. But that’s exactly who darkens Constantine’s door with news that John’s investigation into the gruesome “angel murders” of London’s billionaire class and Satan’s own vendetta against a treacherous demon are actually the same mission. What’s that mean? You guessed it: It’s time for a team up!

This book is heating up quite nicely.

[Eric · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another fine example of the black humor we know and love.

[Bryan Ball · Rating 4 out of 5]

Four stars (on a comic/graphic novel scale.) This book is a lot of dark, creepy fun. Drawn and written beautifully— and wickedly— this is the John Constantine character and world at his best.

Absolute lol on Lucifer. This is the kind of stuff I want to read.

I can't say too much about this without ruining it but the cover gives you a big hint as to who shows up to help John with this case. The dark humor is fantastic. The storyline is great and the art even better. Worth every cent and can't wait for more.

"I introduced him to his hero." XD

Please tell me this is a five-part series. I love the humour and pacing of this one so much. It may not be the most original run, but I couldn’t care less.

ETA: Dang, just checked, it ends with the next issue. Sigh...I’ll save the conclusion for tomorrow. I better delve back into the original run of Hellblazer soon.

El arte es maravilloso. La historia del primer y segundo volumen avanzan a muy buen ritmo y me tuvieron enganchadísimo, pero sentí que en el tercero todo se desinfló demasiado rápido. Un final muy fofo para una gran historia. Definitivamente, el volumen 2 es mi favorito.

Heading for a typical boring ending

Becoming one of my favorite Constantine series - good art, good story.

Lucha de clases, vale, matar al padre, gran tema, y la euforia del futbol genial pero, en una fabula con moraleja muy lejos de mi #Constantine Se puede ser sentimental sin asquear.

Constantine and Satan in bed together...literally.
