We had heard some hush-hush rumors a while back that John Constantine was on his way back to the DC Universe, but I don’t think anybody expected it to be this soon. The star of the wildly popular and long-running series Hellblazer, Constantine is a fan favorite character (despite the bastardization of the character that made it to the big screen). Much like Swamp Thing prior to Brightest Day #23, Constantine had more or less been banned from the DCU as part of the Vertigo line seperation.
Unfortunately, Constantine’s arrival may only serve to further fuel speculation that the Vertigo line, dwindling in both sales and titles, may soon be coming to an end.
