Necro begins to seclude himself in his obsessed search for the fabled Books of Magic, the two young magicians explore a romantic relationship with each other.



Necro betrays them because of jealousy that they feel in love with each other and He leads the two into a trap with some cult of cold flame henchmen help.

Constantine’s cleverness and adaptability allow them to win against him and Necro is killed by a cold flame dagger and his soul gets set to hell. Constantine begins to wonder what he’s missed out on by not being able to get more information about the Books.



He then takes Nolan’s trench coat claiming his place as the new “king” of occultists.

I haven't been reading this ... but is that the Cult of Cold Flame from the Tim Hunter books? Do I need to be paying more attention to this?

Well, the same name at any rate, but given this is the new DCU, not sure what difference it makes if they're the same or not, if you see what I mean.

I was thinking along the lines of, if they're using them, does that mean they might be using Tim, which I see now is already the case :)

Tim himself has a fairly major secondary role* in the current arc, and the Books of Magic are the major focal point of the arc, so...yeah.

* Minor spoiler: He's apparently actively discarded his magical potential. But, he's been given so much focus in the last couple issues, I'm not thinking it's gonna stick.

Tim's done that before at some point during Books of Magic. It didn't stick then and I don't expect it to stick now.

I miss his floppy hair.

Does make me wonder if this version of Constantine, as he's younger than the Hellblazer one, is more influenced by Billy Idol rather than Punk and Sting.

Though in the preview he did still have a Mucous Membrane t-shirt.

FFS. Someone felt the need to give an origin to Constantine's trenchcoat? Ugh.

hey all good coats have a story. i still want to know where Indie got his hat, where han got his pants and where exactly DID Stella get her grove back from...

Indy's hat got its origin in the third movie, and had the benefit of originality; this seems to borrow heavily from that. And while it's good for a good coat to have a good story, and preferably several good ones, it's incumbent on the wearer to come up with those stories in order to have the personal connection, otherwise they're trading on borrowed glory. (I have a black leather jacket (nothing flashy, very basic cut), and I've got a few stories to tell about my adventures in it, but its origin is that I bought it from Wilson Leather when it was on sale.)

How to write a British accent in three simple steps;

If it's a guy your character is speaking to, stick 'Mate' on the end of a sentence.

If it's a girl your character is speaking to, stick 'Love' on the end of a sentence.

Overuse until your character sounds almost Australian, then cease.

John and Andrew having a romantic history would explain their hostility toward each other during Bennett's brief stint with the JLD. (Of course, they've already got John and Zee for the 'disastrous romantic fallout', but, hey, it is kind of John's 'thing'...)

Oh, the female character is the prize over which two male characters compete. Yay!

And by "yay", I mean "ugh".

Okay, maybe it's just me, but is the idea of wearing a dead person's coat really iffy?
I mean, my favorite characters all seem to have done it now (Grell Sutcliff, and now John Constantine) so....
