10 Best Comic Books Of 2020

4. John Constantine: Hellblazer

Daredevil One More Day
DC Comics/Bilquis Evely

In an ideal world, we would be gearing up for another arc of Si Spurrier, Aaron Campbell and Matias Bergara's Hellblazer run. Sadly (and bizarrely), the series was cancelled earlier this year, meaning we only have 12 issues of what is frankly the best Hellblazer comic we've seen in years.

Spurrier gets a real handle on John Constantine and positions the character in his best setting: away from the rest of the DC Universe. Constantine has never really been a superhero, and Spurrier is given the necessary freedom to take the occult scouser back into familiar territory (this time London), but with a few added wrinkles that ensure the comic remains as biting and as compelling as ever.

John Constantine: Hellblazer marked a strong return to form for one of Vertigo's most beloved characters. Such a shame it is, then, that it's yet another Big Two comic cancelled way before its time.
