John Constantine: Hellblazer #4
| Writer | Si Spurrier |
| Artist | Matias Bergara |
| Cover Price | $3.99 |
John Constantine was missing for years-and in that time, England needed a mystical protector, a guardian at the gates. Heroically, the young man known as Tommy Willowtree stepped into the breach! This cosmically attuned mage has held evil at bay with the force of his positive white magic, unlocking a new era of peace for the citizens of London. He is a gentleman, a scholar, a clean-living, vegan acolyte of love.
So naturally, John Constantine hates his effing guts. And now they have to team up. Great.

AIPT - Nathan Simmons
Feb 26, 2020This issue is a lot of fun, exploring a bit more of John's petty side when faced with a new generation of magic. It makes for a humorous read that nonetheless moves the story forward in interesting and dramatic ways. Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Nick Devonald
Feb 26, 2020Brilliant new tone for this two-parter, Simon Spurrier’s writing will have you in stitches, Matías Bergara’s art sets the tone and helps with the humour, and Jordie Bellaire’s colours is the visual glue which holds it all together. A perfect jumping on point for new readers. This run on Hellblazer is definitely shaping up to be one of the best and most memorable. Simon Spurrier was born to write this series. Read Full Review

Feb 26, 2020This is a near perfect issue. Readers of the original Hellblazer are sure to get a kick out of this. Beyond that, any comics reader in Britain (of a certain age because it is a Black Label book) really need to be reading this. Spurrier is crating masterful work here. Well worth the read.

Mar 02, 2020John Constantine: Hellblazer #4 begins a new arc in fresh clothes, that is until Constantine ruins them. In this visually gorgeous issue, Constantine meets Tommy Willowtree, who just might be everything he hates. Still, Willowtree needs Constantine's help, but Constantine might need Willowtree's more.

Feb 29, 2020I enjoyed the art most of all in this book. I have never seen the artwork of Matias Bergara before. He is excellent and one hell of a talent. He brings the quality of this book up a lot. This is a fairly decent first chapter of a new storyline. Read Full Review

Feb 26, 2020After an initial arc that promised to return the series' titular character to his roots, this reads like a cover band that only knows a couple of hits and that makes the entire experience quite a drag. Read Full Review
