Hellblazer: Bloody Carnations

John Constantine’s grip on sanity has always been tenuous, but now he’s really lost it. Haunted by memories of striking Epiphany, the cracked magus tries appeasing his demonic tormenter by making a bloody offering of his own flesh. Things get so desperate he even attempts to summon the high prince of madness, Shade, The Changing Man.

But Shade is not the gentle soul he once was – he’s desperate and dangerous. In fact, Shade’s harboring a nasty grudge and has more problems than Constantine – if that’s even possible.Assisted by Shade, Constantine must regain his sanity, find out why he grew a white beard, lost a thumb and went out of his bloody mind.

It will take a trip to Shade’s home planet to learn the truth – and to settle an old score between Shade and Constantine.
