This issue offers interesting insight into the life of Commissioner Gordon. He won't let a vengeful gangster keep him from doing his job, nor the fears of his new wife. Batman is in the beginning phase of his descent into his exhaustion point that allowed Bane to defeat him later the following year. Sarah's distrust of Batman doesn't stop her from turning to him when her husband's life is in danger. I've considered this to be the start of the very slow development of their relationship. Headhunter is an interesting character. Who's his dentist? I don't think he appeared again until the rebirth era where he was killed. This is a good stand-alone story I remember finding in a 25 cent box at my comic shop. It was rare to find Batman books more
