It would make more sense to start with the Silver Age series, but I have a strong aversion to Silver Age nonsense. You get this series instead.

The run preceding this, the Tom Taylor/Bruno Redondo one, had included that corruption being cleansed with Superman supporting character Maggie Sawyer being appointed Blüdhaven police commissioner.
This run's following from that with " there's still problems in Blüdhaven's police force ". Part of it's been their officers cheerfully accepting laser guns, jetpacks and walking tanks (provided by Spheric Solutions, front for the run's overarching villains) to use in their duties.
Issue #125'd had one of the laser-gun-and-jetpack cops murdered - and Maggie, looking into his death, discovering that his " by the book " nature had just been his way of getting away with everything he wanted to.
She and Nightwing'd met the dead Officer Dietrich's killer - an apparent manifestation of Captain Hallow, the ghost of " the first [Blüdhaven cop] to die in the line of duty ", who supposedly punished those of the Blüdhaven police who didn't stand by their fellow officers.
Nightwing'd grappled with the ghost - who'd slipped his grip, leaving a cloak behind. Maggie'd got a shot off at the Captain as he fled - one that hit.
