Because of what he's done, John Constantine (voiced by Matt Ryan from the Constantine TV series) finds himself banished to The House Of Mystery with no idea how or why he's wound up there. He soon meets up with some friends like Jason Blood and his lover Zatanna, and discovers that she and he have popped out two kids... who quickly turn into demons and attack him.
