John Constantine - the incorrigible trench coat-clad anti-hero
- hunts down a mad demon that has left a trail of bodies stretching
for London to Los Angeles. And to have a prayer of defeating
this ruthless enemy, Constantine must forge alliances with
monsters every bit as terrible as the one's he's pursuing...
All
His Engines sees
Constantine up against a worldwide plague that is putting
millions into comas. When one of his closest friend's granddaughter
falls victim to the disease, Constantine steps in with the
cure. However, in scratching the surface he finds a mad demon
in a body woven out of cancer cells, and a plot to build franchised
Hells in the cities of men. To rescue a single innocent child
from the clutches of evil John has to face temptations he
never imagined as well as forging alliances with monsters
every bit as terrible as the ones they are fighting.
This
story has a lot going for it. The plot keeps you guessing
until the end - will Constantine be able to free the young
girl? Or will she be imprisoned for ever? Okay, while it's
pretty obvious that Constantine always manages to win through
in the end, this collection will still keep you on your toes.
Not
only is All His Engines a damn fine tale, but the reproduction
job that has been lavished on this graphic novel is also something
to behold. Firstly this paperback edition has some of the
best quality paper stock you are likely to see in a graphic
novel release - nice thick glossy pages are always a welcome
sight.
If
you are a Hellblazer fan, then you are not going to
want to miss out on this collection.
