The City of Light is a world away from John Constantine’s regular stomping grounds in the Old Smoke, but the two erstwhile imperial capitals have more in common than you might think. They’re both among the oldest and grimiest burgs in Europe; they’re both centers of political and economic power; and now, following the arrival of the infamous street-level sorcerer known as the Hellblazer, they’re both potentially ground zero for the kind of magical Armageddon not seen since the days of King Solomon. All across the Île-de-France, from the winding streets of her charming arrondissements to the crime-plagued towers of her gritty banlieues, Constantine leads his allies and enemies alike on a desperate search for a Djinn, a journal, and the dark, long-buried secrets that bind them together. At long last, England’s greatest magus is closing in on the prize he’s chased across the Channel. But once he has it in his grasp, will he discover he’s too good a man to use it? Or will the climactic confrontation ignite an infernal fire in the Hellblazer’s heart? Find out in THE HELLBLAZER VOL. 2: THE SMOKELESS FIRE, the latest tale of mystical intrigue rising from the pages of DC’s blockbuster Rebirth event—as detailed by acclaimed author Simon Oliver and celebrated artists Davide Fabbri, Philip Tan and José Marzán Jr.! Collects issues #7-12 of the ongoing series. Review: Satisfied customer - The item arrived in excellent condition, securely packaged and on time. Very happy with purchase. Thanks.

Better than average story
Better than average story, interesting art and dialogue... a definite improvement over the first "post-Rebirth" Hellblazer. Some beautiful art and snappy dialogue in this volume, which is a lot snappier than its immediate predecessor. If you enjoy DC's "least super" hero this is a good read, with occasionally beautiful art. The dialogue is still a little "Hollywood British," but that's part of the charm.

In Medias Res
For good or ill, we're firmly in the middle of the story here. Events pick up from the previous collection (referencing Swamp Thing and Abby Arcane without explanation) with no real chance to catch up before we are thrown into a new set of adventures and introduced to still more characters related to the djinn. Constantine is somewhat likeable (and almost heroic) here protecting his friends and innocents thrust into his world. The djinn, in contrast, are brutal creatures relishing in violence and bloodshed. The story also does not have a satisfactory end but leaves us to pick up the next collection. Like other recent DC books, this too features art by a number of artists. The art changes drastically from issue to issue or every other issue making it hard to recognize characters at times. A further note, Amazon often treats comics with little care. If you prefer your comics without bends, dents, and broken spines, purchase elsewhere.

Good, wish it was better
Call it 3 1/2. I want to like Hellblazer. John Constantine is one of my favorite comic book characters mostly because he's extremely flawed but still follows his own sense of justice and right. I think its the storylines that drag things down a bit. To me, they feel disjointed and at times non-related to whats actually going on. Tangents for character can be interesting, but a tangent for the sake of a tangent is just filler. Hopefully the series gets better

This new one is missing something
I've never had a problem being captured by a Hellblazer story but for some reason this book was torture to finish. I didn't care for the art and coloring in part 1. I found it too murky and perception seemed off. The whole book chasing thing was weak and John seemed uninvolved, passive aggressive and apathetic all at the same time. I kinda got tired of Merc holding Constantine's hand all the time. John needs to go back to see the Horrorist for a bit of waking up.

Regular
El arte es bueno, me hubiera gustado más tonos oscuros; la trama es regular, a mediocre. El primero volumen me pareció muy bueno, este deja mucho que desear

A good read ,but the story that started this series ends unsatisfactory, with out conclusion and the other stories in the series are OK but overall a bit disappointing.
