1. Anything Involving Swamp Thing, Sandman Or The Wider DC Universe
Hellblazer purists may remember that Constantine first appeared as a supporting character in Alan Moores reinvention of Swamp Thing. In fact Jonny boy is very much the village bike of the DC Universe having enjoyed crossovers in Crisis on Infinite Earth and Neil Gaimans The Books of Magic. Hes shared panel space with The Phantom Stranger, Morpheus and Lucifer and is currently enjoying a team-up with Zatanna, Black Orchid and Deadman in Justice League Darker (a property which Guillermo Del Toro has expressed an interest in). Its true that DC has had way more success with its television properties than it has with the big screen. Arrow continues to draw respectable ratings with considerable hype around spin-off The Flash and theres eager speculation around Seth Rogens adaptation of Preacher. If DC wanted to build the kind of genre-crossing, universe continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe it would be much easier to do it on the small screen, but its just not going to happen. While Constantine will be broadcast on NBC, Arrow and The Flash are The CWs property and two competing television networks are not going to promote each other through crossovers of vastly different worlds. On the subject of some of Constantines weirder allies making an appearance its unlikely. NBC has pitched this firmly as noir-esque supernatural detective series à la...well Supernatural. Including a creature composed of moss or the King of Dreams would contrast far too much with a show determined to take itself seriously.
