In this issue of Barty the Kid, Bart Sr. battles the necromancer in a back street of Boston while searching for his son. Employing an unorthodox spell, Bart Sr. defeats him...and reveals Old Boston below. At the same time, Barty has agreed to help the ghosts in Old Boston destroy the anti-magic field so that they can be returned to the parents. Unfortunately, Liam must kill him to do it.
