Mother Panic Reading Order
This reading order is designed to give an outline of major storylines featuring Mother Panic (Violet Paige) throughout DC Comics. It does not encompass every one of her appearances, but is an outline of the major ones and the stories that affect them.
The continuity details relating to each specific storyline are explained in the “Review” of each storyline. Every “Review” link will provide a detailed continuity breakdown of that story and will explain any reference the story makes to other aspects of the DC Universe. All of this can be found under the “Continuity” section of each link.
Rebirth
Mother Panic was introduced during the Rebirth era of DC Comics through their Young Animal imprint. Almost all of Violet Paige’s initial appearances were confined to the Mother Panic series until the Milk Wars (Reading Order) crossover event. At this point, the Violet’s adventures were shifted to a new reality and her solo comic was relaunched as Mother Panic: Gotham AD in order to reflect these changes.
As of now, this Reading Order comprises the entirety of Violet’s story. Her character may be brought back at some point in the future but it is unclear when/if this will happen.
