Hellblazer - Pt. 3 - The Rogue Shadow Pt. 4.
[]Please comment if you favorite[]
A man in a black trench coat enters a dark room. The only light is from a small flame lit in front of a shrine. On the shrine sat a skull. The man walked to the shrine and placed his hands on either side of the skull and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath in and when he let the breath go he began to talk to the skull.
"Sista'. Tell me, where is John Constantine?"
The flame on the shrine waved furiously around. The skull eyes lit up with a blue candle that sat inside it. Suddenly a voice sounded from the skull.
"I dO nOt KnOw."
The man sighs but does not break his connection with the skull. Instead he takes another deep breath and asks another question.
"Have you seen him at all recently?"
"No... WaIt, I SeE sOmEtHiNg. A fAiNt LiGhT. yEs, I sEe It. JoHn CoNsTaNtinE."
Suddenly the man's vision is taken over by the skull. A scene comes to his view. A neon bar light shines in his eyes.
"Where is he?"
"HoLd On, BrOtHeR."
The man's vision shifts and he appears in the bar. Suddenly the man he is looking for appears on a bar stool. He takes the final drink of his beer and asks for another. Moments later he is given another beer to which he begins to drink. His attention is drawn to a television set playing a soccer game. He suddenly lets out a swift cheer as the team he is rooting for scores a goal.
"Yes! That's my boy Benteke!"
The man's vision becomes hazy and a sudden headache causes the man to bring his hands to his head. He opens his eyes and looks at his sister's skull. He leans down and kisses the forehead of the skull.
"T'ank you, sista'. I now know where John Constantine is."
The man turns and walks out of the room. As he gets to the doorway he turns back to the shrine and smiles.
"Goodbye, sista'."
He walks out of the room and suddenly the fire in front of the shrine extinguishes itself...

Credit to SupremeDalekDunn for doing similar shots like this and inspiring me to do one for this shot. I'm not entirely sure the way I pulled this off is the same way he does, but it worked for what I wanted to do.

This concludes Hellbazer Vol 1 - The Rogue Shadow. I know that I said, or think I said, that these volumes would be longer, but this is exactly how I imagined and wrote the story. When rewriting to actually upload I thought of making it last a few more issues but ultimately decided against it.
Also stay tuned as I got a pretty cool Halloween story coming for Hellbazer. Nothing too big as I just started back up the story and I'd like to ease myself into the story.
