John Constantine’s new DC comic book ends with him kissing the Devil

Today, DC concluded the Black Label book Hellblazer: Fluctuate with a story about John Constantine examining a mystical string of deaths in which the worst of society’s upper crust keep jumping to their deaths with what appear like angel wings stitched into their backs.

Method back in the series’ very first concern, Satan techniques John into thinking for numerous minutes that he had an inebriated one night stand with the devil himself, prior to chuckling his ass off and informing John that as the King of Hell he has much better requirements than that. However is John Constantine too low lease for fast snog with the Lord of Lies?

Today we discovered that no. No he is not.
