Batman #373

In "The Frequency of Fear," the Scarecrow unleashes a terrifying new weapon: a broadcast of pure psychological terror, turning Gotham’s airwaves into a weapon against Batman and Robin. Written by Doug Moench and brought to life with moody precision by Gene Colan, Alfredo Alcalá’s inks, Adrienne Roy’s colors, and Albert De Guzman’s lettering, this 1984 issue delivers a chilling exploration of fear’s reach—its pulse felt in every shadowed panel. The cover by Ed Hannigan and Dick Giordano captures the dread with a haunting, stylized vision of the city under siege.
