Description: "Panic on the streets of Gotham! The shadow of the Bat falls over all of Gotham City, from its dark alleys to its glittering high-rises. But a new vigilante has just stepped away from that shadow, and she has her own brand of violent retribution to deal out to the city's corrupt elites. Meet Violet Paige, a rich young celebutante with a bad attitude and a worse reputation. No one would ever suspect that this tabloid-fodder wild child has a secret hidden beneath her spoiled heiress exterior-- a secret that has driven her to become the terrifying force of vengence against her privileged peers known as Mother Panic! But even as Violet launches her all-out assualt on the rich and twisted, her shaky allies threaten to betray her, and every one of Gotham's guardians-- from Batwoman to the dark knight himself-- is hot on her trail. Will Mother Panic continue to strike terror into her enemies' hearts? Or will her violent quest for justice reach an equally violent end?" --
