    Dealing with Satan seemed better than your standard angry mob at the time. But three centuries later, Satan is ready to collect His dues, whether the vampire likes it or not. He's taking Jack down to Hell, and He's even got a job picked out for him down below: an eternal position at the Registration Office of the Damned.

But the whiny complaints of the recently-deceased and the legions of suited, cookie-cutter demons are the least of his problems.
