Dancing our troubles away with JPV! Today's episode takes our headsocked hero into the Clocktower where he shares an odd, awkward, and almost disturbing flirtation with a... thirsty... Babs Gordon. Also, a bunch of people in alleys get their throats slashed by a Skull-Headed Lord of the Dance! It's an issue so weird, you'll probably think I'm making it up!

Following our recent dips into the one-n-dones, Azrael-land, and Anthologyville... we get a "return to form" in No Man's Land storytelling. A couple of gang-leaders are looking to expand their turf... and, if they gotta break a few bats to do so, so be it! We also bear witness to another big ol' dollop of Gordon family drama. It's definitely a fun one!
