Constantine returns to a familiar building in the latest animated DC venture
SCI-FACT! Rick Morales was a storyboard artist on various Justice League and Scooby-Doo animated films, as well as Ben 10 and Young Justice.
Constantine certainly has a few demons of his own.
DC’S UNDER THE RADAR HEROES ARE GETTING THEIR moment to shine in DC Showcase: Constantine – The House Of Mystery, a quartet of animated original shorts. They will explore lesser-known DCU characters, including Blue Beetle, Kamandi and The Losers. Anchoring the films is the Master of Dark Arts, Constantine, the most recognisable name of the bunch.
“The reason for doing these shorts was to do things that we haven’t done before, to try and play with characters we normally wouldn’t and hopefully find something that the fans are into that doesn’t involve Batman,” producer Rick Morales tells Red Alert. “We have an opportunity to do these shorts: ‘Who are we going to focus on?’ We always knew Constantine was going to be involved and the House of Mystery was the direction in which we were going to go on that one.”
