About this Collection

This collection gathers the Nightwing issues tied to DC's 2021 'Fear State' crossover event, following Dick Grayson as he protects Blüdhaven from the chaos unleashed by the Scarecrow's psychological warfare. Written by Tom Taylor with art by Bruno Redondo and others, the volume showcases Nightwing's resilience and leadership amid a city-wide crisis.

In "Nightwing: Fear State Part 1 of 3," a shocking act of violence sets the city on edge when Red Hood is caught killing FBI agents and their informant. With trust shattered and the streets in chaos, Dick Grayson must confront Jason Todd—once his brother in arms, now a man accused of crimes he may not have committed. As past tensions resurface, the two are forced to reunite, chasing a conspiracy that runs deeper than either could have imagined. Written by Tom Taylor and illustrated by Cian Tormey and Daniel HDR, with colors by Rain Beredo and John Kalisz, and letters by Wes Abbott, the issue’s cover by Bruno Redondo captures the moment the uneasy alliance begins.
