Hellblazer #86

John Constantine stands front and center on this striking 1995 Vertigo cover — cigarette dangling from his lips, trenchcoat draped over his shoulders — with one arm extended and a lighter's flame catching the darkness, all set against a vast, blood-red globe looming in the star-filled void behind him. It's a beautifully composed image from cover artist Sean Phillips that perfectly captures Constantine's trademark blend of weary cool and dangerous intent. "Warped Notions, Pt 2: The Everything Virus" promises exactly the kind of atmospheric, unsettling storytelling that made Hellblazer essential reading under the DC Vertigo banner.
