John Constantine has seen more than his fair share of supernatural horrors, yet somehow the street sorcerer always manages to survive--but what about the all-natural horror lurking inside the darkest human hearts?

Matt is joined by one of the podcast patrons to discuss the first 3 story arcs , issues 1-22, of Hellblazer.

In the aftermath of the horrors of the Fear Machine, Constantine leaves Britain for what he thinks will be a well-deserved vacation. But a whimsical twist turns this vacation into a nightmare populated by literary heroes.

John Constantine's efforts to stop the Fear Machine have failed, and now it's up to the women in his life to save the day.

John Constantine believes that there's more fuel behind the Fear Machine than mere political power. But what is "the God of all Gods"? Support us at: https://www.patreon.com/PlanesTrainsandComicBooks Follow us on social media: https://linktr.ee/planestrainsandcomicbooks
