Redpill me on Constantine. What makes him better than like, Spawn, Ghost Rider, or Hellboy?It just seems more of the same
Ive heard it as him being the kind of guy punks want to be like
>>144630429He's a poofter
>>144630520Gah. I fucking forgot they made him half a fag. Same with Deadpool. Why do they keep doing it?
>>144630429He is magic Batman who doesn't need preptime
>>144630429Constantine was just a regular street nigga who got into some seriously fucked up shit that made him realize the world is bigger and more horrifying then what we knowHe delved deep into the dark portions of humankind and life and retained his humanity and that small spark of hope and goodA classical trickster who does what he does to survive and for the current greater good. Also ends up destroying every relationship he has. Part of an ancient bloodline called the constant ones and his familial progenitor and descendents were always there and will be there at the end. The bar at the end of the Hellblazer? That's the bar that Death will drink her last drink in. Before she closes shop, sends everyone on their way and turns the lights out on all of creation.John Constantine will probably still in that bar after Death turns out the lights. He also is a firm believer in "A hole is a hole" as long as it's female or feminine, till the fags and fujo's get a hold to them then he's a straight up dick sucking power bottom faggot.
>>144630429He's a cynical british guy who likes to rat his way out of a conflict. Depends on the writer but If a vampire wanted to kill a guy Hellboy would beat the shit out of it, while Constantine would probably have the guy eat copious amount of garlic until the vampire gets poisoned.
So he's basically british capeshit Witcher?
>>144630429He's an edgy leftist
>>144630520>>144630646Because it's hot and makes them ripe for relationship/sex drama for both sexes. They don't call them bisexual disasters for nothing.
>>144630429Zatanna can't have a single story focused on her without this limey cunt hijacking it and making it about him, so I don't like him at all.
>>144631012>John Constantine will probably still in that bar after Death turns out the lights.then she won't turn off the lights not yet at least
>>144630429He's just a guy, not a superguy
>>144631857Boy. Just wait until you see how forced Madam Xanadu is
I'm supposed to be impressed because he can beat Superman. But its magic. Thats the equivalwnt of saying a guy with a gun can kill Batman
>>144631927Constantine doesn't beat Superman in a fight, he tricks Lois into selling her soul to the devil
>>144630646>>144631012He's been Bi since 1992, the only way "They" were making him Bi was via fucking Time Machines.
>>144631324Actually. I think John did something like that.
>>144630429He's an actually troubled character trying his Best (minus when he's drunk) and somehow being British is only his second worst sin
>>144630646>half a fagfag = fag, fag.
>>144630429I miss when Constantine was more a trickster and manipulator. Now he's casually casting spells, leading superhero teams, and doing all sorts of un-Constantine-like things.
>>144630429Simplebefore they went full retard with Heckblazer, John Constantine's whole shtick was him being a conmanAs a brawler?He's mediocreAs a magician?Also mediocreAs a trickster?Absolute mad lad
>>144630429Nothing. He's just an edgy cunt for people who like trench coats but thought they were cooler than cape fags.
A friend of mine's bi and into SMTI don't think he's remotely into capeshit but I kind of want to get him Vertigo era Hellblazer Any recs?
>>144633448Just start with Delano and keep going until he gets bored probably at Jenkins
>>144630429He's based but he's not better than Hellboy. At least, his comics aren't.
>>144633369Yes, Heckblazer
>>144630429He used to look like Sting.
>>144630429Everyone else can fall back on brute force, for one.
