Continuity
The initial scenes of the prelude Sword of Azrael mini-series take place during the Gotham City "Founders Day" parade.
As the contemporary Batmobile was destroyed in "KnightsEnd", the original Batmobile (with the large hood ornament) was used by Batman and Robin for several issues following. "Knightquest" also introduces Batman's rocket railcar linking the Batcave to the Gotham subway system; it was designed and completed by Harold after his discovery of the cavern passages in Detective Comics #650 ("The Dragon").
In "KnightsEnd", Jean-Paul Valley references his defeat of Marvel Comics' Jigsaw during the Batman/Punisher crossover Lake of Fire. This is a very rare mention of a character from another company in a non-intercompany capacity, made possible by the insanity of Jean-Paul.
