Yesterday, Bleeding Cool looked at the new John Constantine comic written by Si Spurrier, kicking off the new run of Sandman Presents comic books, We enjoyed its introduction of new swearword to DC Comics' lexicon, the appearance of Keanu Reeves in a litany of other versions of the characters and an address that seemed directed[...]

Earlier, we looked at how today's Sandman Universe Presents: Hellblazer brought a new swear word to the DC Universe But it may be bringing a far more insidious beast to the Sandman world That of the dreaded continuity Of contflapsinuity as we should all now call it.
As Si Spurrier Marcio Takara and Cris Peter kickstart the new wave[...]
Although, Garth Ennis did once point out that DC was happy to publish a series called The Kents, which in a certain accent is indistinguishable.
It is also worth pointing out that in British/Irish vernacular, that while one of the most-offensive words used, it's not a gendered form of insult as it is in the USA,[...]
Which, today, includes a new Omnibus volume collecting all of Garth Ennis' Hellblazer comic books As influential on the character as Alan Moore and Jamie Delano, it also preceded his work on Preacher, with relations between of angels and demons, and also teaming up with Steve Dillon too.
Published on April 21st 2020, here's the listing:

Starting in October with Sandman Universe Presents Hellblazer #1, Constantine will pull a magic trick of having two number one issues in a row as a new John Constantine, Hellblazer series launches the next month.
Simon Spurrier will write both the one-shot and the ongoing, with Marcio Takara providing art for the one-shot and Aaron Campbell[...]
Let's face it, radio drama is really TV without pictures, and with the sardonic and angst-ridden William Palmer facing up to people like the King of the Greyfollk, the show is virtually Hellblazer with the serial numbers shaved off Until US network TV brought a more cartoonish version of John Constantine to his own show[...]
This looks like it maybe it for the old Hellblazer as Burke sucks the soul from John's body Constantine has one more gambit left in him, and that is turning Margaret into a vampire and offering the Huntress as a replacement body for Burke.

The rather entertaining and well-regarded Hellblazer/Harry Potter fanfic by Camwyn sought to place John Constantine in one of the four house of Hogwarts, via the Sorting Hat.
"Will you get on with it, you bloody sack of stitches?"
"All right, then I'll make it quick Not Ravenclaw, not Slytherin- Gryffindor would never forgive me if I put you into his[...]
From Captain Britain to John Constantne: Hellblazer to Animal Man to Outlaw Nation to 2020 Visions to Crossed Badlands to Necropolis to Rawbone, he's a comic book writer whose work I have been very happy to follow.
It's just, he's not writing comics at the moment He's a novelist and a publisher of other people's novels as well.

I spent the last seven days just overwhelmed with his cuteness.
First, I couldn't help but mention my three favorite DC You books from last week; Constantine: The Hellblazer, Batman, and Detective Comics This week's Justice League of America #1 by Hitch delivered the goods A wide-screen epic with an iconic League (basically taking place at[...]

And is getting a new treatment in the DC YOU title John Constantine: The Hellblazer #1, with a short story in the back of today's Convergence: SHAZAM! #2.

DC have taken away his years, taken away the politics, taken away his bisexuality and now they have come for his coat.
From a press jolly between DC and their "media partners" last month, embargoed until today, CBR reported a conversation with the new creators of the Constantine:The Hellblazer mini-relaunching in June to discover this distressing[...]
About how there were four books from the June mini-relaunch that I was really excited about, but seemed not to be lighting the fanbase on fire.
Prez, Doomed, Mystic U and Section 8.
So, since I was watching the InStore Comic Convention Kickoff, and Dan DiDio was on the screen, I tweeted out,
#conventionkickoff question for Dan… what[...]
For some people the Constantine comic just isn't the same without it being called Hellblazer.
Okay there are probably other things too But this may mark a start in getting closer to the feel of the original series, while still staying within the DC Universe.
Ming Doyle, artist on Vertigo's The Kitchen is joining Riley Rossmo of[...]
Over on DC Entertainment's website, they posted this video with the cast and crew of the NBC series Constantine talking about the Hellblazer comic book and going from the source material to live action.
I also wanted to remind folks that Constantine has not been cancelled, only stopped after the first 13 episodes so the network[...]
Just as the NBC TV series was placed on hiatus with no further episodes being produced after the initial order of 13, a low-budget fan film was released on the web that created a bit of a buzz.

On Friday the cast and crew of NBC's Constantine were told that the production will be stopped after the initial 13 episode order that it received. But
The particular episode, written by Cameron Walsh, is based off of Hellblazer #1 and is a really good character moment for Constantine.

So when Slate published an article about the state of the character on the eve of his new TV show, they got a comment, first from the last writer of Hellblazer and writer of Justice League Dark, Peter Milligan.
"When [New 52 Constantine] became the only incarnation of this character, he just becomes some British geezer[...]
The series stars Matt Ryan (Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior) as the titular anti-hero made popular in the DC / Vertigo comic series Hellblazer.
Like some of the other comic book based series to debut this season, Constantine had it's pilot leaked on-line Unlike Gotham and The Flash, Constantine went back after and did some reshoots after[...]
Having seen the pilot, am looking forward to the change as I just didn't think Liv fit into the Hellblazer universe… even the one NBC is creating.
Here we have a few picks of Celaya as Zed and a trailer for an episode called Trust where she seems to be introduced.
