NBC CONSTANTINE

EASTER EGGS: Hellblazer
The title to this episode is taken from: John Constantine: Hellblazer  #4, written by Jamie Delano.

Both the title and the basic plot of this episode come from one of the earliest John Constantine stories, in which he faces off against a deranged man rather than a demon or ghost.

In the comics, it was actually John's first interaction with Zed -- and they had a date, which was ruined not by her flirtations with Jim Corrigan, but by the news that John's niece Gemma had been abducted.

In the comics, Gemma's family had taken up with the Resurrection Crusade, the church which is hunting Zed in the TV series, and that was the source of their disagreement when Zed ran out and ended up abducted. The Crusade opposed their hunt for the mysterious pedophile at the center of the story.
