Hellblazer: Dead In America #6 - Cover!

NOTE: Unlike most mainstream original art, Mike drew this piece at the same size as his The Bat-Man: First Knight art, slightly larger than twice-up, measuring an impressive 16.5" x 21"!

This is the haunting, atmospheric original cover art to Hellblazer: Dead in America #6 by Mike Perkins, published under DC’s Black Label imprint. This striking piece is rendered dramatically in pencil and ink, with white paint used to emphasize the swirling wisps of smoke enveloping the partially obscured figure of John Constantine, evoking the eerie, occult world that he inhabits. Perkins’ masterful interplay of light and shadow heightens the tension, while the intricate smoke patterns seem to materialize from the darkness, hinting at Constantine’s constant dance with demonic & supernatural forces! 

Every brushstroke conveys a sense of gritty unease, underscoring why Hellblazer remains one of the most compelling series in DC’s mature lineup. Fans of Perkins’ expressive linework will appreciate the evocative textures and layered inking techniques that bring the foreboding ambiance to life. This cover art is an exceptional piece for any serious Hellblazer collector, capturing the essence of Constantine’s dark, mystic realm in a single, unforgettable image. And just imagine how tantalizing it is in person, at larger than twice-up size!
