Vigilante spends most of this issue interrogating Dick. He wants to know what his connection is with Eddie and Liu. And he's not liking the answers he's getting. Basically all this stuff with Dick and Eddie and Liu happened right after Dick has his big blow-out with Batman. You know, when he was saying he didn't want to be Robin anymore, and that he wanted to be his own man. Essentially, they were trying to use him to get to Bruce. And he pretty much went along with everything, until it got to the point where they wanted the pass-key to WayneTech. That's when Dick stopped going along blindly, and started doing some investigating of his own. We learn most of this through Dick and Vigilante's screaming matches with each other. He tells him the story from Dick Grayson's perspective. But as he is, we're seeing the story from Dick and Robin's viewpoint. Finally Vigilante believes what Dick is telling him and let's him go. Of course there's a scuffle. Dick can't just take this treatment lying down. But he's to weak from hunger and thirst to put up to much of a fight. So he gets a little rest and eat and drinks, and now . . . as Nitewing . . . he wants to figure out just what the hell's going on. Great story by Marv Wolfman. But then he did create the Vigilante character. Well . . . not exactly this one. But . . the original. And Jon Bosco's art was . . . ok. Nothing great. But it was ok for this particular story. Is this the same Jon Bosco that did Noble Causes? I think it is. Anyways, it was a pretty good story. I really liked the Ryan Sook cover.
