Summary
The Red Hood is a mystery who wants nothing to do with Batman and his entourage. Coincidentally, Tim Drake thinks the mechanic working on his bike is the ghost of the older brother whom he’s never formally met.
While Red Hood leaves a bloody trail in his wake, the spirit of Jason Todd wanders Park Row in search of his personal Charon’s obol to pay the ferryman for peace.
This begs the question: what do we owe the dead?
Or, the one where Dick Grayson is haunted by ghosts, Tim Drake is desperately trying to save Bruce, and Jason takes over Willis Todd’s mechanic shop following his resurrection. Somehow, their paths still converge.

Summary
Gideon had no proof, but her gut told her that Cytherea was responsible for Sextus' death. If Harrow pursued his killer with the single-minded intensity that Gideon expected her to, then their paths were going to cross very soon.
"Text me," said Gideon. She was careful not to touch Harrow's skin with her own, lest she notice that Gideon was a little too cold, even for late winter. "I'll help with whatever stupid shit you're up to.”
[Gideon pretends to be human while assisting her childhood nemesis with killing a vampire.]

Summary
Harrowhark Nonagesimus has come a long way from her sheltered Mormon upbringing. She's moved to the city, she's out, she has her dream job as a paleontology research associate at her favorite museum, she has friends, she's got a (begrudgingly alright) situationship that hasn't crashed and burned yet.
So why does she still feel like a fraud? And why do her thoughts always, inevitably return to the girl she abandoned more than a decade ago?
