    Summary

    Jason's on the trail of a killer who's targeting kids in Crime Alley for an unknown magical ritual. Between that and his family who insists on butting in, he's got his work cut out for him. But, as they say, nothing is as it seems.

    Magic doesn’t come to Gotham.

    Which is simplifying it. Because, well, magic isn’t allowed in Gotham, first off. But also, it really doesn’t want to come to Gotham. Of all the things the Bat tries to keep out, magic is the easiest because magic wants to stay as far away from the city as possible. Zatanna called it a “cesspit of untamed ambient magic,” which was being nice even with calling it a cesspit. The last time some asked Constantine about Gotham he just laughed, lit his cigarette, and walked away.

    Summary

    “To kick off our curriculum, I’d like to introduce you to an idea that I learned when I was in fifth grade,” says Ms. Miller. She’s only twenty-three, this is her first job out of college, but to an eleven-year-old Jason Todd she seems as wise and worldly as a magi. “There was a writer named John Gardner who once said there are only two kinds of stories." She pulls up a Word document on the Smartboard and Jason reads the two lines, written in capital letters:

    SOMEONE GOES ON A JOURNEY

    A STRANGER COMES TO TOWN

    A thrill runs through Jason. He immediately knows why this idea always stuck with Ms. Miller. It seems so profound, so important. Something that every student of the written word should know. And that’s exactly what Jason is, and what he always plans to be.

    Summary

    After some strange conversations Danny discovers that he knows very little about ghost culture, which is probably not a good thing considering he's going to be their King.

    When he is informed that ghosts express affection with punches and battles, he realizes that they need a day for it, a day where no one should "hold back" or "be responsible", a direct opposite for Truce. So, he created "War Day" after his coronation. Of course, this day needs some adjustments, which involves inadvertent discoveries and some wizard with terrible luck.
