| Nick | I honestly think that Garth Ennis can do no wrong. |

| Butters | I found the movie to be enjoyable. Of course, I have never read Hellblazer.If I decide to, though, I will skip this one. |

I bought that thing. Art is horrible, like most of Vertigo's early stuff from like 1991. It's at a level where it's ugly enough to annoy me when reading it :O The writing is sorta Neil Gaiman-ish in the sense that he never shuts the fuck up. BLABLABLABLA INNER THOUGHTS BLABLA LONG BOGUS EXPLANATIONS BLABLA and then I forget what's going on half the time and you can't look at the art to remind you because it looks like it was done entirely with a ball-point pen. I liked the ones done by Ennis/Dillon better but still nothing that would make me read Constantine and God knows it would be easy since like 1/5th of the comics on sale in the huge crap box at the used book store seems to be Hellblazer issues. Like, I don't even think they accept any more comics, they just sell until they finally get rid of it all and all that's left is crap from the early 90s... Anyways I did like that part with the fat dude eating constantly but still drying up like a fig and dying of starvation. Very post-modern. |

The first two issues of the series (The Hunger) are brilliant. I think that they're a perfect intro to the character. However, the rest of the trade leaves a lot to be desired. I like the movie, but everytime I've watched it I've felt dissapointed afterwards. I mean gum? Come on. |

| Max Power | Know what you mean. I started with the first book, stopped for months for other comics, then began again after seeing the movie. When I began the Garth Ennis book, it definitely breezed through quicker and more enjoyable. But then again, anything Garth Ennis writes is fun to read. |
