7. The Big Heat

Batman meets Firefly, a man who dresses in a heavily-armoured fly ensemble and has a turbo-enhanced jet pack. Firefly breaks into numerous Gotham companies, destroying their technology, and takes to the skies when Batman arrives. As the Bat finds out, he's no easy foe to bring down. Meanwhile, Bruce meets up with Mayor Grange, who tells him that he's going to have to give his father's charity work to GothCorp instead of Wayne Enterprises due to his lifestyle.

Complete story — includes the ending

Bruce is concerned when Marion Grange, the mayor of Gotham City, informs him that a contract for work on the children's hospital may be awarded to GothCorp, a company with a rather dubious reputation, rather than Wayne Industries, despite the charity work of Bruce's late father. At the same time, Batman confronts a new villain, the jet-pack and fire-armed Firefly, while investigating a number of break-ins at tech firms around the city. When his effort to sway the city council fails, Bruce becomes suspicious of GothCorp's bid, and soon finds a connection between them, Firefly and the break-ins.
