Ignore the one star review below, and make no mistake that Rare Cuts is essential Hellblazer reading. Mainly published to coincide with the release of the Constantine movie from Warner Bros., it has been long overdue for these issues to be re-printed in TPB form. Consisting of stories written by Jamie Delano, Garth Ennis, and Grant Morrison, with various art from Sean Phillips, Mark Buckingham, Richard Piers Rayner, and V For Vendetta artist David Lloyd; Rare Cuts is a gem. Delano scripts the infamous "Newcastle: A Taste of Things to Come", an important story that remains a pivotal event in the Hellblazer mythos to this day, while Morrison provides a great two part story involving John and some very blood curdling going's on's in a small town. Ennis' story isn't up to par with his other Hellblazer material, but it's still a solid story. The real standout here is Delano's "In Another Part of Hell" which examines the long relationship between John and his best mate Chas Chandler, and just what John did for him way back when. All in all, Rare Cuts is a gem for Hellblazer afficiondos, although newcomers may want to check out older titles first before digging into this.
