To John Constantine
Eric Bryan writes for Bleeding Cool; If you're reading this (and I hope you are, or else we're both losing our minds), odds are you've heard the fate of John Constantine Once the figurehead of mature comics and the reason for the existence of Vertigo comics, Constantine has now been relegated to the third tier dregs[...]
Thursday Trending Topics: John Constantine

Things You Won't See In A John Constantine Comic Book Again
For example… The sex… The drugs… The violence… The bad language… The racial epithets… The politics… More sex… The racial politics… …safe sex… …and Alan Moore popping in for a pint.

Goodbye John Constantine[...]

Mashpoint – Wonder Woman And John Constantine
I'm more concerned about the revelation that Wonder Woman and her nation of Amazons killed all the British men, all thirty-two million of them in a massive misandrist holocaust, possibly by removing their testicles.
