Gotham has long been the city of the Bat, but there's a new vigilante on the streets, and she's got her own brand of violent justice to deal out to the criminals of the city.

Enter Mother Panic! By day, Violet Paige is a celebutante with a bad attitude and a temper to match, whom no one suspects of having anything lying beneath the surface of her outrageous exploits. But Violet isn't just another bored heiress in the upper echelons of Gotham City's elite. Motivated by her traumatic youth, Violet seeks to exact vengeance on her privileged peers as the terrifying new vigilante known only as Mother Panic.

Collects issues #1-6 of this brand-new series from Jody Houser (Faith) with art by Tommy Lee Edwards (MAD MAX- FURY ROAD).

MOTHER PANIC is a part of DC's Young Animal--a four-book grassroots mature-reader imprint, creatively spearheaded by Gerard Way, bridging the gap between the DCU and Vertigo, and focusing on the juxtaposition between visual and thematic storytelling.

Reviews for Mother Panic Vol. 1 A Work In Progress

"""Teens who love gritty Batman Stories will find plenty to like in this latest Gotham City Vigilante...Violet's bitterness, long-buried secrets, and tightrope walk between bravery and recklessness make this a nice fit for fans of Greg Rucka's Batwoman: Elegy."" --BOOKLIST ""Houser's dialogue and characters are superb. Edwards is in top form; his pacing is wonderful and the action is fantastic.""--NERDIST ""While there is no shortage of women heroes, there is a major shortage of woman antiheroes and MOTHER PANIC looks to fill that gap."" --NEWSARAMA ""Mother Panic is a somewhat more traditional superhero story, but the psychedelic visual style and and surreal, fractured narrative give the book a flavor all its own."" --IGN"
