History: (Hellblazer #43) - John Constantine was dying of cancer, and he’d recently humiliated the First of the Fallen, so he did not dare die. He reached out to his contact in Hell, Ellie the succubus, and she confirmed that the Devil was going to torture him and obliterate his soul when he died. In the past, those that defeated or humbled him were men of God, who ascended to Heaven upon their deaths, and were out of his reach. Now he finally had the opportunity to do as he wished with one of his enemies. Ellie suggested John repent, and he laughed, saying the deity wouldn’t be that gullible. She suggested Swamp Thing as someone who could heal him, and John replied that they were on the outs. He cursed Swamp Thing for ingratitude, and Ellie told him that if he was motivated by rewards and thank yous he wasn’t the man she knew. She told him the Snob, the angel Gabriel, was his only hope. John cursed again, as he despised the Snob, but thought he had to try. John told her she was a good sort for what she was, and she flashed a large demonic grin and told him she was only being civil. Taken aback by her beauty John had to remind himself who he was talking to.
