I never could get the cover. It looks like some Symbiote-Batman in flames. Otherwise, this was a pretty good issue. Half focuses on Batman struggling to finally bring down the Firefly after 2 escapes. The other part is about Robin having to deal with The Riddler taking a TV studio hostage after his gang turns on him when they get tired of him sending his riddles, with no responses, due to all the craziness spread throughout the city. Among his hostages is the amusingly named Dr. Simpson Flanders.
This was one of my first issues, so it's a classic to me. I love the storytelling and art, as I usually do with the work of the Dixon-Nolan team. It's also one of my favorite chapters of the Knightfall saga.
