Hellblazer Reading Order

This is for the original run of Hellblazer 1-300 from 1987-2013 along with all relevant miniseries, one-shots and specials. I wanted to read this for a long time and it’s worth it. There’s a chunk of issues that I disliked, but I’m less mad that they weren’t good and more disappointed at being robbed of 80 or so issues with the character. Reaching the end felt like losing a friend, and now, as a reader watching the title end, I know what it was like for John to see all his friends die around him. So cheers to John Constantine: while there will be reboots and adaptations and alternate versions, there will never be another character like the original. Things in bold=important parts of the main story Italics=optional (with explanations) Constantine was created by Alan Moore in the pages of Swamp Thing so it feels necessary to add that as an optional start. However, aside from a few quick references in the first few Hellblazer issues you can enjoy that run without this. Still, it’s a good story and a good introduction. Technically he first appeared in ST 32 but that’s a retcon for a single panel of a guy in the background. Like how Jessica Jones “technically” first appeared in Amazing Spider-Man #4 in ‘63 despite not being created until the early ‘00s.

Swamp Thing Volume 2 #37-51 – The main story ends with 50 but there’s a short epilogue in 51.

Hellblazer 1-9 – Beginning of Delano’s run.

Swamp Thing 76-77 – The crossover timeline is funky but it works out midway through Hellblazer 10.

Hellblazer 10-13

Annual (1989)

Hellblazer 14-17

Sandman 3 – John’s in basically the entire issue as he and Dream team up to find Dream’s missing shit. The end of this story is shown in the middle of issue 19, so nowhere you put it will really fit because 18 ends in a cliffhanger immediately picked up in 19. I’d say read it before 18 or after 19, if you decide to read it at all.

Hellblazer 18-40

Shade the Changing Man 42-44 – Not much of a Constantine story as he’s barely in it. Technically this takes place before his Swamp Thing appearances because of time travel stuff, making the chronology wonky. I only mention this because the same writer eventually does a Hellblazer run and this arc becomes part of it. Can be read any time before Hellblazer 251.

Books of Magic 1-4 – A sort of team comes together with Constantine being one of the four. Written by Neil Gaiman.

Hellblazer 41-69 – Start of Ennis’ run.

vertigo jam 1  – Short story by Ennis.

Hellblazer 70-71

special 1 – Another one-shot by Ennis.

Hellblazer 72-83

Heartland – Epilogue to Ennis’ run. doesn’t have Constantine but it’s about one of his close supporting cast and is pretty good. They even include this in the collected editions.

BATMAN DYLAN DOG no.2 (of 3) • cover art • Gigi Cavenago [Apr 2024]

The second issue of the bombastic team-up between DC's Dark Knight and Sergio Bonelli's Nightmare Investigator is here! Batman hunts through London to find any trace of the kidnapped Catwoman, and all of his clues are turning up smiles...while Dylan Dog must enlist the help of John Constantine to track down a serial killer...a serial killer he already put in the ground years before. Life is hell in more ways than one in this gargantuan issue that will bring you straight to hell (but will it take you back?).
