This issue is packed with villains. You have the Joker and Scarecrow torturing the Mayor, The Riddler preparing for a big heist, The Cavalier getting his butt kicked and The Firefly, who was a lesser, hardly seen foe until this point. This is when he's proven to be quite dangerous and works his way up to being a better-known Bat-villain. He loves his work and is definitely suited for residence in Arkham.
Robin also gets to show his detective skills here as he gets the goods on The Firefly and figures a list of targets he's likely to strike, making it easier for Batman to figure where he's bound to strike next. A well-written issue, with a great creative team. I do miss a lot of the crew who worked on Batman books at this time. They put together such fine issues. more
