John Constantine Hellblazer: Original Sins

Collecting the earliest chapters of John Constantine's solo adventures, this 1992–1993 DC trade paperback reprints the first nine issues of the original Hellblazer series. Writer Jamie Delano and artist John Ridgway establish the cynical, working-class magician's gritty London milieu, weaving a dark, politically charged horror that set the tone for the character's long-running Vertigo era. A foundational collection, it captures the raw, unglamorous occult noir that defined Constantine's early years.
