John Constantine Plus Cigarette Plus Pentagram Equals Demonic Summoning
John Constantine takes a much-needed smoke break while fiddling with a pentagram in a dark London pub, nothing good can come from this. My version was inspired by Elena Casagrande's image I saw on Instagram.

Sci-Fi Saturday Mornings on the classic Zenith 25" TV Console
[Workflow: built the movie image first, including adding graffiti, found my parent's old TV set on eBay, then merged them together, created TV distortion, liberal dispersion live layer use, added my classic channel 62 on the TV dial, and then added the dreaded reflection from the windows messing with my TV viewing]

Legend of the Serpent's Temptation (John Constantine)
As he wandered deeper into the garden, the trees grew taller and the shadows darker. John's eyes scanned the surroundings, his hand instinctively reaching for the cigarette pack in his pocket, only to remember he'd left it on the nightstand back in his dingy London flat. A faint rustling caught his attention, and he turned to face a massive, serpentine creature coiled at the base of a gnarled tree. Its scales glinted like polished obsidian, and its eyes burned with an otherworldly green fire.
The snake's gaze locked onto John, and he felt an inexplicable pull as if the creature was drawing him closer to the tree. A branch creaked, and a single, glowing apple fell from its bough into John's hand. The snake's forked tongue darted in and out, tasting the air, and John's mind whispered a single, chilling phrase: "Eat the fruit, and all your sins will be forgiven."
