BIG THANKS to the guy in Camden who was super nice and gave me a great recommendation to start reading Hellblazer.
I don't usually read a lot of comics. I read Garfield and one manga, but really wanted to get into the comics of my favourite DC hero: John Constantine.

Now, I mostly read novels. Almost exclusively, I guess, so getting used to this format was a process in itself, but I absolutely loved it. I think Mina did a great job writing this story, and Manco did an amazing job drawing it.

Admittedly, there was a couple of times where I wasn't really following what was going on? In that sense, Hellblazer: Original Sins was far easier to read. There was also something... silly about the plot conclusion here, but it was funny, and I think the story was cool either way.

Great comic! I look forward to reading more of the Hellblazer series🫶.

This is more of a part two to Empathy is the Enemy.
