Notes

  • As also mentioned in the issue, Chas' latest appearance in the present occurred in Hellblazer #228, the epilogue of the The Red Right Hand storyline, which takes place one year and a half before this story. During the gap between his appearances, he reconciled with his wife, Renee.
    • Chas states that Renee is both angry (as a consequence of the Out of Season and Reasons to be Cheerful storylines) and grateful to Constantine (because of the events of John Constantine - Hellblazer: All His Engines). However, his words may suggest that the latter storyline is more recent than the former two, which is actually false.
  • This issue is reprinted in Hellblazer: The Roots of Coincidence.
