According to a recent issue of Wizard, the Constantine movie will be based on Dangerous Habits. Since it's my favorite Hellblazer story arc and the story that got me hooked on the title, I'm starting to look forwardto this, despite the world's worst casting job. (Keanu Reeves is playing John Constantine.)
Dangerous Habits is one of those rare comics that catches you from the first couple of lines. By the second page you are told that John Constantine is dying. The story then goes on to tell how Constantine's doctor told him he had lung cancer and only months to live. What follows is Constantine's search for a way to cheat death. He speaks with archangels, demons and the devil himself looking for a way, while looking up some old friends and making lots of new enemies.
It's a great comic. I suggest reading it before seeing Hollywood and Mr. Reeves butcher it.
