Synopsis:
When Green Arrow delivers some flowers to Dinah Drake two harpies appear. After a short skirmish, the harpies disappear. Green Arrow contacts Green Lantern to help investigate. When Green Lantern approaches, he sees the harpies and follows them to a discotheque. Inside he is ambushed by a woman brandishing a magic jewel which pulls Green Lantern into another dimension.

When Green Lantern never arrives to meet Green Arrow, he and Black Canary conduct their own investigation beginning at the flower shop. There, they encounter a group of amazon warriors. After a brief misunderstanding, the warriors lead them to the discotheque.

The Witch Queen is still inside with her brother Sinestro. Green Arrow beats Sinestro, while Black Canary subdues the Witch Queen. Black Canary then enters the jewel with the Amazons. Together they rescue Green Lantern from the queen of the jewel dimension, Medusa.
