John Constantine, Hellblazer Vol. 12: How to Play with Fire
By Paul Jenkins, Garth Ennis, Warren Pleece, John Higgins & Sean Phillips
- Release Date: 2016-01-19
- Genre: Comics & Graphic Novels
Features the wrenching finale of Paul Jenkins�s never-before-collected run on the title, as well as Garth Ennis and John Higgins�s brutal five-issue coda, �Son of Man.� For a man as cynical and jaded as John Constantine, there�s only one kind of torment for which he is unprepared: contentment. But the fact is (even though he recently cut off a piece of his soul and marooned it in Hell to suffer for his sins), things are actually going pretty well. He�s got a new girlfriend that he hasn�t yet killed or damned or driven insane; his surviving friends and family are, by all accounts, still alive and healthy; and his enemies, for the most part, are either dead or trapped in some form of eternal torment. Not a bad score, overall. Naturally, this means that it�s time for everything to go up in flames. Because when you�re as prolific at making enemies as John Constantine is, there�s always going to be a few that you don�t know about, as well as one or two heavyweights who can afford to bide their time. When the two meet, it�s best to get as far away as possible-the collateral damage alone promises to be as deadly as it is indiscriminate. Collects HELLBLAZER #121-133.
