A man struggling with his faith who is haunted by the sins of his past is suddenly thrust into the role of defending humanity from the gathering forces of darkness.
First of all , hats off to Matt Ryan for actually bringing the crazy witty bastard we all know as John Constantine to life. A true gem and a revolution in bringing the less glorified and star spangled yet utterly brilliant comic characters to life. I've been a fan of hellblazer since i was a kid, the dark creepy twisted plots and the always witty John Constantine, always having an ace up his sleeve, always surviving. The charisma the actors exude, the level of believability is very carefully plotted and the true comic genre is employed quite fantastically. Hope this show runs long alongside the spangled spandex runners and proves that u don't need hugely popular and socially feasible hero characters to come up with a brilliant show. I'll give it 10, yes, for being true to Constantine, and especially for holding no bars, may it be gore , creepiness, nudity or just the plain simple religious incantations. Absolutely Promising and spine chilling.
