Book Description
Magic costs. It’s the one lesson John Constantine has learned from his life of cigarettes, superheroes and sorcery. Every spell he casts, every demon he dupes, every fundamental force of the universe he warps—each and every action comes with strings attached and sacrifices demanded. But Constantine has always managed to avoid paying the ultimate price. Until now. When his war against a cabal of powerful sorcerers sends him screaming across the boundary between universes, he arrives in a world much like our own. A world dying at the hands of the mad god called Darkseid. This is the home of another John Constantine, one whose life was peaceful and happy right up to the end. To escape the apocalypse and save the few survivors he can, our black-hearted conjurer must join forces with his good-natured doppelganger. Together, they can return to Constantine’s own world. There’s just one catch: for one to live, the other must die… In CONSTANTINE: THE APOCALYPSE ROAD—a thrilling crossover with EARTH 2: WORLD’S END—the creative team of Ray Fawkes (BATMAN ETERNAL, JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK) and Jeremy Haun (BATWOMAN) give the DC Universe’s most dangerous mage the fight of his lives! This final volume collects issues #18-23.

Book Description
The second year of the Sandman Universe begins with the long-awaited arrival of one of DC’s most iconic characters…John Constantine, Hellblazer! He’s cheated death and damnation more times than he can count, but never like this. Long ago, in the crucible of a magical war waged across countless futures, Constantine was murdered by an all-powerful adversary: a twisted version of Timothy Hunter, bloated with evil. But over the past year strange forces have conspired to restart Tim Hunter’s tale, and somehow-amid sorcery, insanity and secret agendas-this older, wiser, wilier shade of Constantine has been dragged back with it. Unlike young Tim, John remembers every second of a life that went very, very wrong. Now he must ask himself why he, the last person in the world to deserve a second chance, has been given one. Is John Constantine here to put Tim Hunter on the right track and avert a terrible outcome? Or is it because he’s the only person in existence with the guts to do what REALLY must be done? After all, he’s a nasty piece of work, chief…ask anybody. This oversize one-shot sets the stage, and is the perfect jumping-on point, for a new era of Sandman Universe tales beginning in November…and is the official start of the strangest chapter yet in John Constantine’s long life!The second year of the Sandman Universe begins with the long-awaited arrival of one of DC’s most iconic characters…John Constantine, Hellblazer!

John Constantine is back in London, back to his old tricks-and just in time, as things have become very dark indeed in his old stomping grounds. A small-time gang lord has found himself dealing with a big-time outbreak of supernatural weirdness...and without any allies to call on and nothing left to call his own, John doesn’t have much choice about taking a paycheck from one of London’s worst, or accepting the help of one of the gang lord’s would-be foot soldiers.
