It doesn’t disregard it, it doesn’t say it didn’t happen. Really, this story doesn’t pick up from the previous CONSTANTINE. MD: Just like not everything that happens to Superman is in a regimented chronological order of events, he’s doing seven different things in two books at the same time. We’ll explore the core danger at the heart of him. We’re going to tell an incredible story that’s deeply personal to John. JT: Right, but also if you did read that, if you have been reading CONSTANTINE and you love the character, we’re going to the core of the character you love. MD: If you didn’t read CONSTANTINE before this at all, if you didn’t know what he was up to, you can pick this up and figure it out. This is us, but we’re also not too concerned with staying the course. MING DOYLE: This is just going down a different path.

We’re not going to do anything to directly contradict them or anything. JAMES TYNION IV: It’s one of those things, and I think this is one of the core aspects of a lot of these new DC books, those stories happened. The two will be working on CONSTANTINE: THE HELLBLAZER (as well as DARK UNIVERSE, more on that later), so we asked them what’s coming up for Constantine.ĬOMIC VINE: How will this be connected to the previous series. With James Tynion IV and Ming Doyle taking on the dark and magic area of the DC Universe, they’re tasked with taking John in a new direction.

With the recent events, it’s been unknown where he would end up next. John Constantine has been shown to be a guy with a hand in many things.
