Brian Azarello's work on Hellblazer is excellent but very challenging to the reader. The series was always dark, but Azarello's John Constantine tends to go beyond antihero and into villain territory. Still, there are always glimmerings of his morality and his desire to do the right thing, although this is frequently misguided. Not for everyone, but very well drawn and written.

A rather confusing and preposterous story, with very capable art that seems inappropriate for Constantine; it makes him look like a Joker-style madman. It doesn't help that the script gives him a few Constantine-worthy lines, but none of Constantine's wit or attitude. His motives are as muddled as anyone else's, and the punchline is quite ridiculous. A very strange failure of a storyline.
