1* CompleteMonster: [[BigBad Nergal]] is a depraved and sadistic demon from Hell. When ComicBook/JohnConstantine summoned him to save the young Astra from being sacrificed by her father Alex Logue, Nergal not only killed the latter and his followers but then slaughtered the people at the club before tossing Astra into a portal to Hell for nothing but [[ForTheEvulz his own enjoyment]]. Unsatisfied with his work in Hell, Nergal, under the identity of Beroul, settles in Los Angeles to run his own hellish dimension where the damned souls are tortured and gruesomely executed in various ways by demons. He gets his supply of souls from comatose patients in hospitals. He's also a [[ToServeMan man-eater]] who regularly bathes in a pool of liquefied human bodies. The demon abducts the soul of the young Trish Chandler, keeping it inside his own body in order to compel John into getting rid of his five demonic rivals. After John fulfills his demand, Nergal [[ILied doesn't keep his words]] and keeps Trish as a bargaining chip to force the man into working for him. When John turns against him, Nergal strangles Chas Chandler and gloats about his ill intentions for Trish.
2* ItsTheSameNowItSucks: The plot-line of Chas' daughter's soul being held hostage along with others and Constantine and Chas having to get her back had already been done in the live-action show in the episode "[[Recap/ConstantineS1E10QuidProQuo Quid Pro Quo]]".
3* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: The Newcastle Crew being adapted out.
