† Constantine †

John Constantine(me)has been to hell and back.Born with a gift I didn't want, the ability to clearly recognize the half-breed angels and demons that walk the earth in human skin, I was driven to take my own life to escape the tormenting clarity of my vision. But I failed. Resuscitated against my will, I found myself cast back into the land of the living. Now, marked as an attempted suicide with a temporary lease on life, I patrol the earthly border between heaven and hell, hoping in vain to earn my way to salvation by sending the devils foot soldiers back to the depths.But I am no saint. Disillusioned by the world around me and at odds with the one beyond, I am a hard-drinking, hard-living bitter hero who scorns the very idea of heroism. I will fight to save your soul but I don't want your admiration or your thanks and certainly not your sympathy.All I want is a reprieve.
