DC Cancelling HELLBLAZER; Gets New Series In The New 52

DC Comics has announced that the Vertigo title HELLBLAZER, featuring John Constantine, will end with issue #300 in February. In March, the chain-smoking British occult detective starts a new book within the New 52: CONSTANTINE. The series will be written by Robert Venditti (X-O MANOWAR, DEMON KNIGHTS), with art by Renato Guedes (SUPERMAN).

"Few characters in comics are as complex and entertaining as John Constantine, and I'm finding him to be every bit as enjoyable to write as he is to read," says Venditti. "It's my goal to have the new CONSTANTINE series be equal parts familiarity and surprise. This will be the Constantine we all know and love, but facing new and unexpected challenges from both inside and out."
