I think it was meant to be Helena, although with Bruce there in the hallucination... I wonder if it was meant to be Bruce all along and editorial nixed it at the last minute, so the writer made a quick switch with Helena--and wasn't she Batgirl at this point?--and just had it be Bruce in delusion.

That said, I really wish it WAS Harvey. I mean, obviously, but I love your take on why. Even more wasted potential after "Face the Face." Sigh.

Great post and analysis. I remember being puzzled by this story when I first read it, and while I'm still not sure I get it, you've raised some wonderful questions worth pondering. That said, I've always been fond of that moment near the end where Harvey and Helena have stopped fighting and are wondering if there's anything they can do to save him.
