Constantine is a fucking knob With Mike Carey at the helm we see the return to a long-term plotline in this collection. Early chapters seem like one-off stories, but they artfully connect to the later plot and provide background details to further enrich the tale. As per usual, the issue-spanning saga has Constantine on hand to save the world again - or to at least try in his haphazard but sincere manner. Carey draws on multi-cultural legends (Celtic, South American, and Judeo-Christian) for Constantine's new foe - a dog-typed demon that seems to have the power to open the gates between the realms from the bad side, which is definitely not the norm. It seems that not all of the other realms denizens want this breach though, so Constantine may have some aid, even if it is unasked for and less than savoury. Individually the tales that make up the volume work well together –the first with Constantine as prey, the second a village scarred by a horror hidden in the local asylum and the last a tale of a hidden gateway to paradise. The only downside is that it’s the middle volume of a bigger story and as such it’s a tad unsatisfying with the bigger story left hanging. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
The plot of any Constantine book is secondary to the man himself; readers will just enjoy the protagonist's fearless, feckless attitude toward time travel, slime-spewing aliens, and the native women. Like "Batman" and "X-Men" comics, "Constantine" is now at the level that any copy will be heavily used, and imitations can try but will never supersede the original. A dark, complex, brainy book, Black Flowers is set in a wonderfully gritty London and then jumps to a haunted country mansion. When Constantine begins protecting Angie, a local woman, she blossoms into his equal in daring and together they embark on a desert vision quest. Best of all, every page has more John Constantine.
