i basicaly having another horrible year in the last 10 months i've split up with 2 girlfriends and tryed to kill myself twice because my life has become a living hell, i'm stuck on prozack and when i do stop taking it i cant stand myself, all i do every day is work 9-6 in a job i get no recinition for and when i do get time of all i can do is sleep as i've not had a chance to

apart from work when i can i've been getting my tattoo finished (see hellbazer 181 cover or search my posts) in some vague hope 2 sort my live out just to tie my soul together and repeice my mind from the broken mess it has become, every time i shut my eyes i get flashes from the past that get so strong and lifelike that it makes me feel even worse

anyway sorry for the morbid post just dont have anywhere else 2 write it down

hi

haven been on here alot latley but u can normaly find me reading posts in the hellblazer section, so heres a face to put to the name

old pic and old hair cut its shorter now and not parted

lol, the big circle contains symbols from the zodiac and centers the person in the universe and the triangle is a conjuration of powers symbol to help conjure up spirits for rituals

this is only the begining of the tattoo the finished design is similar to constantines and will ward of demons and anything else trying to harm the wearer

as for the tattoo it was done by a good friend of mine who helped me find meanings and symbols for it

I know its an old post now but I'd just thought I'd update it with my recent tattoo (ok it was done before chrismas but i've just got round to posting it)

bit blury as the lighting was crap and so is my camera

just on the subject of the movie I know alot of people didnt like it but I thought it wasnt to bad, I say that as a movie not in any relation to the comics, dont get me started on there "vison" of constantine.

I have an argument with a guy at work almost everyday, about comic movies i.e he hates the fact that spider-man doesnt have web shooters and the fact that prof x died and magneto lost his powers in x-men 3, all i keep shouting back it its not Earth 616 (if you dont know earth 616 is the main marvel earth and various spin offs happen on differnt earths not to disrupt the time line) so I see the movie as a what if.. version (I can see that being turned into "What if hellblazer was shit) of the vertigo universe.

the movie had some nice points like his tattoos, the idea was right but were used differntly as his arm ones are the mark of the red king that is used by alcamists and is linked to sulpher, as in the film the coming of deamons is marked by the smell of sulpher and his pack tattoo is all about the zodiac and the universe. I did alot of research in to that and I know some people in glastonbury through my brother that know alot about it as I've had the same design altered for me and tattooed on my back (there is a pic of it floating around the forum). The whole mammon thing is mentioned in the bible and hells bible and describe pritty much as they used it in the film.

Uniteresting film fact, the spear of destiny is the same one that is in the hellboy film and can be seen whem myers first enters the B.P.R.D

As I said nice points in the film just badly writen and directed

Mina makes it very clear that, as of Red Right Hand, Chas hasn't spoken to Constantine since their falling-out at the end of Carey's run.

maybe due to the bad tpb publishing scedual mina didnt get to read all his engines, lol

This looks pretty cool. Anyone know how well it matches up with the official timeline in Vertigo's HELLBLAZER SECRET FILES?

just re-read the time line and for the best part it matches up.

Just a couple of things about the later entries, the time-line in the rare cuts tpb states the events of stairing at the wall happen in 2004 and the red sepulture happen in 2003 also john doesnt defet manor untill 2002 this would tie up the 18 bloody months after being declared dead quote.

The burning of his lock up and the tate club dinner could well have been in 2005 as so far there is only the insident with map in the underground on the 11/07/05(english date layout) in 2005 that have been put in a comic.

With the empathy is the enemy and right red hand arcs there happend in the summer of 2006 as chapter 4 of right red hand is set on the 1st of june when england played portugal in the quater finals of 2006 world cup so empathy would have happend about 2 weeks before this.

I read all his engines again for the 3rd time and I do think it was set in autunm 04 I dont want to spoil it for anyone who hasnt read it...the way chas family reacts to constantine is even worse than in #195-196 so they obviously still harbour the memorys of when constantine was force to almost kill chas grandaughter and that chas beat up his wife as a direct result of johns past, at the end of all his engines hes still in america and i'm not sure if it has ever been put in a comic...so highlight back from here (tryed to mach the colour as best I could, its hard being colourblind).

just my 2 cents

on another note good luck with the writing andy, look forward to reading your work

nice work, just one thing I saw when reading it there is no reference to "all his engines" the comic states that the arc happens in the autumn of 2004

so where does it fit in with the other carry arcs

this is my tattoo its the one from the deleted scene in the movie
