Comic Book Art: John Constantine: Hellblazer (1-100)

Continuing my look at my favourite comic books and their cover art, with the long running DC Comics' / Vertigo series John Constantine: Hellblazer.

John Constantine was created by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, John Totleben and Rick Veitch and first appeared in 1985 as a recurring character in the horror series The Saga of the Swamp Thing (#37 June 1985), in which he acted as a "supernatural advisor" to the main character.

In 1988, Constantine was given his own title, Hellblazer, published by DC Comics and written by Jamie Delano and illustrated by John Ridgway. In 1993, at the launch of DC's Vertigo Comics imprint, Hellblazer was made an official Vertigo publication. It is still the longest continuously published Vertigo title.

Hit the jump to see the cover art to the first 100 issues.
