In the DCU
During DC's rebirth event, the character of Mercury makes her first appearance in The Hellblazer: Rebirth. Mercury, now a grown-up teen, helps John when the Magus was fighting against a powerful demon who had cursed him. Although it was shown that Mercury harbored disdain against John, she nonetheless helps him when the magus threatened to use the curse to destroy London.
Mercury uses her telepathy to discover the demon's name and informs John, who then uses it to bluff the demon back to Hell.
