Hellblazer: Rise and Fall

Author Tom Taylor
Illustrated by Darick Robertson
If a billionaire falls out of the sky and dies...who gives a damn?!

A wealthy man plummets from the sky and is gruesomely skewered on a church spire. Bizarrely, angel wings are attached to his back. More such deaths follow until, hallelujah, it’s raining businessmen. Detective Aisha Bukhari is stumped by this strange phenomenon, until she’s visited by her childhood friend, occult investigator John Constantine, who discovers a link between the falling elite and a shocking moment in his and Aisha’s misspent youth. How are these killings tied to the first death on John’s hands? How does this involve heaven and hell? Even if this is kind of John’s fault, will Constantine be happy to let a few more rich bastards fall from the sky, like a vindictive Robin Hood? 
 
DC Black Label presents Hellblazer: Rise and Fall—an occult mystery from the all-star team of writer Tom Taylor (DCeased) and artist Darick Robertson (The Boys)! Collects all three installments of the degenerate and debauched miniseries along with a variant cover gallery and behind-the-scenes artwork. 
Darick Robertson is a veteran comic artist who has worked at DC Comics and Marvel for nearly twenty years.

Robertson is best known as the artist / co-creator of the Eisner Award-winning series Transmetropolitan with writer Warren Ellis, which was hailed by Wired magazine as "The Graphic Novel of the Decade."
