    Hey guys! So DC's formation with Wildstorm and Vertigo comics has introduced me to John Constantine, found him to be an interesting character so I picked up some of his Hellblazer arcs such as Original Sins, Devil you know and my favorite Dangerous Habits and very much enjoyed the series. I was hoping to get some recommendations to read some other good arcs, preferably recent and I am a sucker for good art. Look forward to hearing from you :)

    Late to the party but let me recommend Ennis' Son of Man (my personal fav- I mean Demons and mobsters what's not to like) and all of Warren Ellis' oh so brief run.
