From Cerone's Twitter, Episode 4 will be a very close adaptation of the Mnemoth 2-parter from Hellbazer's inagural debut (#1-2) hence the Modern Mystery clip contained an image of John with Gary Lester.

Regarding Chas and how he survives deadly harm it'll be adderess in Episode 10

Zed's arc is present throughout the season (presumably the whole Resurrection Crusade/Damnation Army or a deep variation of it)

2nd episode was straight. I like the humor that Matt Ryan brings to the role of Constantine, him bringing the frozen dinner to the wake was funny. Also liked the introduction of Zed, she has a very pretty face :whoo:. The actual case was alright, with the whole miner plot. I have a feeling if the show really wants to get good, it will need to embrace more serialization in the long run.

Episode was slightly better than the first.

I felt like matt ryan was more comfortable in his skin as constantine here than the pilot which made it more enjoyable.

But the case of the week shyt is so archaic. I feel like its unacceptable in 2014 to still be using that stale format.

I hope they go for bigger arcs.

I'm liking what I've seen so far. Like the cosmic side of Marvel, the supernatural side of DC is by far the most interesting and has the most depth in the company.

2nd ep was solid :ehh:...dudes thinking these type of shows will start off as a arc are just plain foolish and it makes absolutely no sense in the long haul on network tv....they will at some point start doing that like every other show so niccas just gotta be patient....with that being said this bish playing Zed is borderline gorgeous imo, like im literally looking at the screen sometimes like :krs: whenever she on it, they definitely stepped it up from the last chick in the looks department

:mjcry: Damn no one posted anything after last night's ep. I enjoyed it and really feel like the show's getting into it's own pace. Same with Gotham. Really like the dude playing Constantine. He's coming into his role as well...

And that Zedd chick :shaq::tmntbeli:

The last ep was good. Zed is a much better character than the chic from the pilot and I like the dude they picked to be Pap Midnight.
Anyone else see the Doctor Who callbacks with them talking about Constantine's lair is bigger on the inside than on the outside and how he used what was basically Doctor Who's psychic paper to fool people into thinking he has legit credentials?
