You learn the basics, have a hideous experience in a graveyard, they give you a trenchcoat and take away your razor. Like an assembly line, really. 
- — Ambrose Bierce src
Ambrose Bierce is an occultist. He has a similar appearance to, and is often mistaken for, John Constantine.
History
Bierce is a card carrying member of the Disreputable Urban Magicians and Sorcerers Union. He traveled to Hartsdale, New York to find a loose demon. He talked his way into the Dover household and met Stanley and His Monster. His target was Nyx, sent to Earth to retrieve the Monster. Bierce helped the duo fight the demon and created a diversion that let her get away with a doll disguised as the Monster.

Notes
- When writing Stanley and His Monster (Volume 2), Phil Foglio originally wanted to use John Constantine in this role, but permission was denied. Then he wanted to use Willoughby Kipling, but that was also not allowed. So he named the character after real-life satirist Ambrose Bierce instead.[1]
