Written by Frank Robbins and illustrated by Bob Brown with inks by Frank Giacoia, the story explores the psychological edge of Gotham’s Dark Knight. The cover, by Nick Cardy, captures the mood with a stark, shadow-drenched image of Batman silhouetted against a stormy sky.
In "The Night Has a Thousand Fears!", Bruce Wayne returns to Gotham after a private flight, only to be flagged at customs by the suspicious "Bomber" Smith. Though the inspection seems routine, Bruce later visits the wealthy man—unaware that a mysterious powder in his suitcase has left Batman vulnerable to an unexpected terror: an intense fear of darkness.
