A story over a year in the
making and set into motion with Infinite Frontier #0, Fear State
begins! Batman played into the hands of the Scarecrow, who has
unleashed a coordinated attack on Gotham City through his
manipulation of Simon Saint and Peacekeeper-01! But there are other
forces at work with the emergence of an Anti-Oracle spreading fake
news across all channels and inciting terror and violence on the
streets of Gotham! Backup: Clownhunter has turned down help from
Batman, Leslie Thompkins, the Red Hood, and everyone else who has
offered it to him, thinking that he can handle being a vigilante on
the streets of Gotham City by himself. But when he takes a shot at
fighting the Scarecrow one-on-one, he'll learn very quickly how
much in this city he's not ready for yet. NEW HERO - PEACEKEEPER
