Synopsis:
Jason Blood returns to Gotham and enlists the aid of Harry Matthews. He constructs a magic circle to bring Belial to the Earthly plane of existance. He succeeds in summoning the demon and learns that Etrigan is Belial's first son. Merlin is Etrigan's half-brother with a human heritage that gives him some power over the Demon.

Jason demands that Belial return Glenda from Hell. Belial does so, but not before he is able to pull Harry Matthews into the circle and take him to Hell, where he is made into a seat cushion.

When Belial leaves, Jason enters the circle himself and summons Etrigan. The Demon tells Glenda that music can conquer Merlin.
