When neighborhood kid Oliver show up asking for help finding his possibly stolen pet gecko, Shirley is on the case. Jamila joins her when she discovers she has some sleuthing skills of her own.

Hasbro continues to develop their shared universe through comics, as they bring together their magical and technological universes.
