This volume of Constantine: The Hellblazer has been a critical hit for a number of reasons, but the biggest of those reasons has to be the gorgeous art. Riley Rossmo isn't on art this issue, but the series doesn't suffer from it thanks to guest artist Travel Foreman. Foreman and Rossmo share some similarities in approach, mostly from a character perspective, but Foreman is entirely his own artist in this issue. Instead of doing a variation on Rossmo's Hellblazer world, we get a perspective on this series that is closer to Foreman's impeccable Animal Man work. The inclusion of Deadman to the story allows Foreman to play with anatomy in some grotesque and hilarious ways. The fight for John's body is one of the best artistic sequences you'll see in comic books this week. Foreman makes sure this wonderful book doesn't skip a beat. –Levi

Final Score:

8.4/10

Constantine: The Hellblazer #11 (Published by DC Comics; Review by Richard Gray; 'Rama Rating: 8 out of 10):

John Constantine in the City of Angels is a glorious punchline that writers Ming Doyle and James Tynion IV run with in this interlude issue, with the Hellblazer's wry observations about the differences between New York and L.A. forming much of the backbone of the dialogue. Between the angel Gabriel running a never-ending party, and Deadman body-hopping to convince Constantine to return to the beleaguered N.Y.C., it's an issue that completely understands the comedic aspects of the titular character's foot in each realm of reality. Travel Foreman's distinctive style provides a point of difference to Riley Rossmo's claustrophobic New York, a much more delicate and defined set of figures that positively glow. Foreman and colorist Ivan Plascencia also get to cut loose on cartoony figures in Constantine's view of Orange County, with jibes against craft beer sitting alongside creatures that feel at home outside the gates of an unnamed theme park. It's a filler issue in many respects, but a sharp journey through the darker side of the DCU, setting up a bigger confrontation awaiting the anti-hero.
