DC's John Constantine Returns With A New Hellblazer Omnibus Collection

Almost 40 years after he first appeared in the pages of Swamp Thing, John Constantine's early years are getting reprinted in a deluxe hardcover compendium. This massive first volume collects Constantine's solo adventures, and it's currently priced at $139.50 (normally $150) on Amazon ahead of its October 15 release. At almost 1,600 pages in length, this is a gigantic tour across the seedy supernatural underbelly of London, and it comes with a ton of extra content as well.

John Constantine, Hellblazer Omnibus Vol. 1

$139.50 (was $150)

This particular run was written by Jamie Delano, who helped establish Constantine and his world through dozens of comic book issues, creating a complex and captivating character. There are some terrific tales here, like The Fear Machine and The Family Man, and the art from John Ridgway, Richard Piers Rayner, Stephen R. Bissette, and other illustrators helped define a dark style of storytelling that became a trademark of Hellblazer comics. Here's the full list of what you're getting inside of this compendium:

Hellblazer #1-22
John Constantine: Hellblazer Annual #1
Swamp Thing (Vol. 2) #65-77
The Sandman #3

Additionally, there's a brand-new foreword by Garth Ennis--another famous Hellblazer writer--a brand-new introduction by Delano, the never-before-seen proposal for the Hellblazer series, the full script for issue #2, and more content around the production of the series that has never been seen before.

For something more traditional, there are several DC compendium editions up for preorder as well. You can return to a bygone age of crossovers with the DC Versus Marvel Omnibus and DC Versus Marvel: The Amalgam Age, or catch up on the classic adventures of Superman, Batman, and and more with these upcoming editions.
