God damnit. I suppose CW's LEGENDS played a role in the scaled back Constantine and this mess is probably why the suits were so against the SWAMP THING series.

I'm going to lose my shit when SWAMP THING gets monkey pawed into being resurrected only to be a teen drama on CW.

WB and AT&T need to fuck off.

>telling a company that has owned DC since 1967 to fuck off in 2019

AT&T just took over recently. And believe it or not, companies change, so I don't even know what the fuck you are talking about. Current WB are a bunch of fuck wits when it comes to DC and handling it.

This image started funny and becomes more depressing every time I look at it.

I'm actually hype for Johnny constantine.
Sounds fun.

At least he's still smoking here.

Everyone goes on about how Disney has taken control of Marvel and done a bunch of damage to their comics, AT&T and WB literally got rid of the only consistently good thing about DC. Shit fucking sucks man

When he tries to smoke the visor on the helmet comes down to stop him.

VERTIGO hasn't been good in like decades man.

That's not true.

Milligan's Hellblazer
Carey's Unwritten
Gaiman's Sandman Overture
Mieville's Dial H for HERO

All produced within the last decade.

>Mieville's Dial H for HERO
That wasn't vertigo.

Already happened after Hellblazer ended and they just ran with Constantine and put him in that Justice League Dark shit.

Also
>Milligan's Hellblazer
>good

So can anyone pinpoint the exact moment Vertigo declined?

I've been making collages over in and the best I can pinpoint is around 2009. There were rumors from ~2008 that WB's president got pissed off at them for running at a cost, and especially since their most popular titles didn't have the media adaptation rights controlled by WB. Contracts changed, and old talent fled them.
Berger points at WB for this.

It was never announced that she was fired, but does seem to have been ousted by changing tides over at WB.

So did Vertigo still have that edge and creativity from their 90’s heyday well into the late 2000s?

Berger Books may be Dark Horse last hope after they lost their Buffy, Conan, Star Wars and FOX licenses.
How's their Mata Hari book by the way?

Honest to god question: why didn't DiDio allowed Ennis to write Constatine Rebirth series or even Constantine during new 52 or DC You?

Constantine's been getting watered down since the New 52 at least.

It was.

You're a fucking retard.

Can't wait for the return of The Sandman Babies

I know that happened between DC You and rebirth but my main question is why the fuck don't let the guy who wrote one of the best Hellblazer runs write the new Constantine series?

Why? Ennis ignored everything about Constantine and turned him into another one of his mouthpieces.

>Baby Endless
>Vertigo
user, I don't think Baby Endless will return, ever.

Because he already had a long run on the character. You're the type of retard that wants the same writer to work on the same character
for 30 years and even f he ran out of good ideas decades ago you're going to still pretend like it's good because you want to maintain the status quo that was established with the first issues of the run.
Also, why the fuck would anyone want Ennis on Constantine again except this time censored edition?

Six Pack and Dogwelder was unquestionably the best comic of its year.

tell me he didn't get John too

Because compared to Rebirth Hellblazer, Ennis version sounds a lot better.

user, I...
If you think about it, Bueno was married to Lady Guts, and Constantine fucked her, so Bueno is a cuck.

>and old talent fled them.
not really

He would be a cuck if he didn't do anything about it, but since he fucked John that makes him a true alpha, and the hero we need.

It's a little funny that Rebirth Hellblazer used Delano's supporting characters, while Ennis completely ignored them and pretended they were never part of John's story

Ennis wouldn't do it, you monkey.

why live...

did this actually happen?

>The Mystery of the Meanest Teacher: A Johnny Constantine Graphic Novel – Written by Ryan North and illustrated by Derek Charm

Yeah I know, Ennis is kind of a primadonna.

Ennis is shiting bricks right now.

>Constantine fans still can't handle the monkeys paw
Hilarious.

>YA versions of Constantine and Swamp Thing
Link, please?

b-but he's supposed to be immune to bad luck! It's in his genes!

Why? He didn't create the character, and his runs are good but not the best i.e. Mike Carey's

>it's real
Ha ha, holy fucking shit.
Remember when Rebirth started and everyone said DC was saving the medium?

Rebirth was last year, user. This is ''All-new All-different DC''.

Rebirth is kill. This is the era of New Justice and Knuckles. Also, I figure we're due for a reboot, New 52 was eight years ago and it hasn't reset since. Although I feel like it'll take at

>New 52 was eight years ago and it hasn't reset since.

But that's what Rebirth was, user. A reset for the reset.

How bad it was? I only know John married some goth girl that is the daughter of the mafia boss.

Meh. Not particularly awful but not great either.

Ennis shouldnta written anything beyond this point. King of the vampires, constantine goes hobo over that cunt (people who defend kit need to fuck off) filler after filler, i mean setup; only to kill the devil in the laziest...
