The fan-favorite creative team of Si Spurrier and Aaron Campbell (John Constantine, Hellblazer) have reunited for a brand-new series featuring the DC Universe’s most beloved occult con man/detective, John Constantine!

This is certainly not the first time John Constantine has had a brush with death — but if he doesn’t play his cards right, it may be his last!

Far from home and with precious few allies to call upon, Constantine, his son Noah, and his “bodyguard” Nat are on the run in America and wanted for murder. To make matters worse, John’s heart has stopped beating and his body is quite literally decaying more and more with each passing day.

Thankfully, he may have a chance at winning a favor from the King of Dreams himself, Morpheus of the Endless, to save himself— that is, if he can figure out who is using Dream’s sand to weave its terrible will into America’s collective unconscious! Afterall, when has playing quid pro quo with all-powerful, extra-dimensional entities ever blown up in Constantine’s face?
Simon “Si” Spurrier is a British comics writer and novelist whose credits include The Flash, Star Wars: Doctor Aphra, and The Dreaming. In 2020, he won the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Comic Book. In addition to his work with Marvel and DC, Spurrier has garnered recognition for his work with 2000 AD.
