I like the stories when Scarecrow is immune to his fear toxin because then he can’t be stopped by his own weapon. I feel that him being defeated by his own toxin has been overdone.
@@pendragonxt3674I have to strongly disagree with that being an "awesome moment." It was a cheap cop-out in a cutscene. Seriously, Scarecrow's ostensibly the main antagonist and the player doesn't even get a boss fight against him. I really wish that we'd have gotten a return to the Scarecrow hallucination boss fights from Asylum in the main game (outside of the challenge maps, etc.) That would have been an awesome moment
Scarecrow takes a back seat to no other Rogues. My one wish about Scarecrow is that I wish Denny O'Neil and Neal Adams had done a Scarecrow tale back in the early seventies.There are brilliant Joker and Two Face stories from this time and I think that The Scarecrow would have been a natural fit into their brilliant and beautiful works.!
Scarecrow has grown in popularity and use over the last 20 years. Having his own stories without Batman battling Superman, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and Catwoman many many times. He's as major a player as Riddler, Poison Ivy or Two Face in my opinion.
It's to the Scarecrows credit that he's such a mainstay in Batman's world in spite of some writers having difficulty getting a handle on him. Great video BTW.
He is persistent. The problem is that most of his story revolved around exposing someone to their fear, they overcome it and defeat him in the end. I wish more writers would be more creative with him and explore him more. At least he is getting some (well deserved) recognition in video games. Hopefully this will translate to the big screen. The fans want a proper Scarecrow film, with a proper costume. And give the man hi@ bloody hat!
So, if EC Comics has the Cryptkeeper...does that make you the Comic Gravedigger, since you had to dig up these stories? Heck, one could say that this particular undertaking...called for a Pageboy?!!!!! I’ll fully admit that is probably my worst attempt at a pun EVER.
I've actually read three of these stories, and...you're right about them being forgotten, because I seriously forgot how GOOD they are. I've read the 200th Anniversary Story, "Evil Eye," and the story from Black & White, and I find all three to be fun. I think that the 200th Anniversary and Black & White stories are my personal favorites; Evil Eye is okay, but not exactly among my absolute favorites. As for the other two...I can't guarantee I'll read the 3D comic, only because of the fact it IS a 3D comic, and I don't like straining my eyes, plus it would probably work best on paper rather than online or something like that. However, I'm almost definitely going to look up Sweet Dreams. :)
"Batman's Evil Eye" was one of the first two Detective Comics I ever bought, and one problem I've always had with the Scarecrow is that several of his stories struck me as rehashes of that plot (Scarecrow amplifies Batman's fear).
In the last story, I started to giggled when Scarecrow's sole henchman went "Gee Boss, that a good plan! You scret is safe with me!", and decided to read "Sweet Dreams" first, to find out what horrible fate awaited the poor guy. And a bit later in your video, the next peage is revealed: "Gee, say Boss, what's with the fifth coffin an' all?"; perfect... Thank you for your service Mistah Rogues, the time sacrificed going through everything Crane-related story out there to serve us a new quality video is appreciated. You're doing great work there. I had never heard of "Sweet Dreams" nor the first 2 stories that you presented, and they're one my list now...
I knew you'd have difficulty, Rogues. The way Johnny is usually used is so criminally overdone and stupid. I myself was a fan of the "I want to be a teacher" angle from the early DCAU comics, if only for the fact it painted him as sympathetic and conflicted for once. Good job on digging these out tho, some real gems here.
I think there was a Gotham Adventures story (do we count comics based on the animated series?) where Crane drove the city to chaos by televising that he poisoned the air supply. People were panicking in hospitals and all that despite not every vital sign being fine. It was revealed that Scarecrow lied on his broadcast and only did so because he wanted to study the citizens.
1:30 - N°1 - The man who radiated fear 4:05 - N°2 - Batman evil eye 6:55 - N°3 - Concert of fear 9:50 - N°4 - Fear is the key 12:10 - N°5 - Sweet dreams
Something that I immediately thought of while hearing your description of the 3D comic, is Crane deciding, for scientific research, to have the teens sprayed with both Bliss’s happy gas and Scarecrow’s spooky gas, and him studying the effects of 2 opposing hallucinations. I think that would be interesting to see.
Scarecrow is conflicting for me. He has an awesome design, gimmick, tragic backstory and scientific motive. And yet, I never really think of how good he is until I sit down and ponder him. Otherwise, I forget about him utterly. I blame it on all his media appearances. Arkham Asylum was a terrifying and awesome villain; but a henchman. Same with Batman Begins. And Arkham Knight makes him so much about breaking Batman that all tragedy and compelling aspects are done away with. Oddly enough, my favorite videogame take was Injustice 2. I loved the lab coat and mask, and his "fighter" being a hallucinatory monster. He was also very good at getting in your head without toxin. Everyone forgets he was a a psychologist/psychiatrist before becoming Scarecrow.
Interesting points, but I'll have to disagree about Arkham Asylum; he wasn't a henchman as far as I remember; he was just running around the asylum doing his own thing.
@@mr.rogues4145 He wasn't specifically working for Joker, but the way the game used him it kinda felt like he was one of Joker's men, rather than a side villain with his own story. He just seemed oddly dependent on Joker not being around, unlike Croc and Ivy who actively stood up to him. The hallucination with him as the doctor probably contributed to this
Maybe it's because I'm just a big Tim Drake fanboy, but one of my favorites is Identity Crisis (the Batman story, not the event). The idea of Scarecrow taking away people's fear of consequences was a really cool idea for the character.
5:14 It's also like the Animated Series episode Fear of Victory where Scarecrow put a version of his toxin on telegrams that he gave to sports stars so they'd get scared and not be able to play then he'd bet on the opposing team so he'd get more money to do more sick fear experiments.
The 3D visual effect on that comic actually gives to the story quite a psichodelic look when you are reading, like if you are inhaling for real Scarecrow's fear toxin.
It's kind of a catch 22, isn't it? If we explore a character, we become familiar with them, and familiarity is the end of fear. Or is it? Do you feel Scarecrow could be fleshed out while still keeping him eerie and unsettling? On a side note, Scarecrow is one of the few characters out there who is not only interesting himself, but makes other characters more interesting as well. After all, what better way to dissect a character than to analize what they're afraid of?
Scareow 3D was awesome & should've been on his top 5 list of best Scarecrow stories 🔴🔵🔴🔵🔴🔵🔴‼️ & "Buried them alive drugged out of there minds on fear toxin...so they'll die in there graves living out there worst nightmares!" 😂🤣😂🤣 typical Dr Crane, you gotta love that guy... @13:10
He's my second favorite rogue from Batman and I have ran into this same issue in how he's hardly featured. The new Batman story Last Knight On Earth incorporated him very well and his appearances are the best I've seen in a long time. Hopefully this recent feature opens the door in the future for him to appear again!
I recently made it my mission to read every Scarecrow story in existence, so this list is immensely valuable! By the way, it would be cool to hear your thoughts on Scarecrow's recent portrayals in this new Infinite Frontier era :D
I really enjoyed Batman #523 and #524, the two parter after Swamp Things with Croc. I also enjoyed "Kings of Fear", especially Kelley Jones's art. No one draws Scarecrow quite like Jones!
I can see why Scarecrow didn't choose Wonder Woman and Cheetah as one of his victims. If you ask me, I preferred Circe or Ares as Wonder Woman's number one archenemy, while Cheetah is her number three.
Great video as always, Mr. Rogues! I think an overlooked Scarecrow story would be Batman Gotham Adventures issue 32. A great and overlooked Scarecrow story. Highly recommended for any Scarecrow fans even though Crane isn't in it for much of the issue.
Say what you want about Gotham, but they found our Scarecrow for us I believe. Julian Sands. He's probably too old for most people, but I can't see anyone else honestly, even a younger person for "Black Label" DC movie like Joker.
You should look up the batman young Jason Todd before the revamp during the noctura period...I believe it was called" Frequency of Fear"...Crane dicovered a sound frequency that effects the Brain fear centers....
Scarecrow should be Batman's primary rogue, as he is truly Batman's opposite, but...alas. Batman #200 was the first comic I ever bought. Thanks, Mr. R, for reminding me of it.
Opposite how? Is Batman optimistic? Does he use hope? A part of Batman's appeal is his great and diverse rogues gallery. What is great is that different foes present different dangers to Batman or what he cares about. I don't mind that the Scarecrow is not his primary foe. (I do mind that writers overuse the Joker).
Great video. I know you don't usually do videoes about superheroes, but can you do something about Wild cat and/or Plastic man? Interesting characters, but completely overlooked.
@@bravoalley228 Pyg is by far the most morbid and violent especially when it comes to literally slicing and chopping his victims into bloody jigsaw puzzles. I am a huge Scarecrow fan but Pyg is underused.
Scarecrow’s motivation in that black and white story is what I always thought it should be. Like a drug addict. It would make his motivations way more interesting than the oft used “fear experiments”. Glad to see Geoff Johns thought the same.
Scarecrow is my favourite villain but I admit that that the only story I know from these is Evil eye. I had never heard of the others but I will read them all this Halloween. The last one sounds really interesting
Interestingly, test footage of the 66 series actually mentions the deaths of the Wayne’s, so it seems like they still had that origin story in mind. Would’ve made for an interesting Halloween episode.
If you're going to do one of these for Penguin then I would recomend you read Batman #190, Penguin Takes a Flyer Into the Future. It's silly but very fun. It may not be overlooked as much as some of the others, but it's worth consideration.
So in fear is the key it shows that just like the joker he can't live without the Batman. That Sweet dreams one is impressive it makes you how has scarecrow not on same level as joker. Any overlooked killer croc stories?
I liked the green lanterns story with the scarecrow. I just didn’t like how they removed Simon Baez’s gun. The reason he carried his weapon was built up in the new 52. It just felt like an anti-gun take to remove his weapon fast over character development.
Please, o please, o please do a vid on The Ghost, an old Captain Atom foe. He has stuck with me since I first read about him as a kid 50 (?????) yrs ago. Tnx.
Not all comics in the '60s was campy. There was a change in direction of the comics with the new look when Julius Schwartz and Carmine took over the comics. Batman was moved back to his roots in the '60s before the TV shows. Batman in the '60s wasn't all camp.
Alexander Smith It’s going to sound very convoluted when I say this. If you remember Arkham Knight. Batman was effected by the Joker’s blood. Although Joker was dead in Arkham Knight, indications were there that he can be effected by the fear gas. I can’t say for sure if it’s because his blood was infuse with Batman. Plus Batman has been effected by the fear toxin on multiple occasions. And has inoculated himself from the effects of the fear toxin. From my reasons, I wonder if there has been any occasions that Joker has been put under the influence of any toxin so far to date. Unless I’m wrong, I’m thinking the only person in the Batman comics who can withstand any toxins is Poison Ivy. She has the ability to withstand any and all toxins as she is the walking toxin herself.
Shadow X I was talking about the comics. In the comics he is immune to (basically) every toxic chemical known to man, and Scarecrow tried using his fear gas on Joker, but it didn’t work. Obviously, this wasn’t the case in the Arkham series cause he’s fucking dead from Bane herpes or something
Scarecrow is one of (if not THE) greatest chemists in the world, there's no one he can't drug if he puts his mind to it. All it takes is time, and a little trial and error.
@@mr.rogues4145 Kidder, but It is something I genuinely want. It's right up there with top 5 disabled hero/villain stories ever since I dislocated my kneecap. Top 5 hero stories before Superman was introduced. top 5 forgotten characters that share names with well known heroes/villains, like the telepathic villain Superman. P.S. what do you've against Mr.Freeze? he's a good character.
About what? That Scarecrow stories generally suck? Well, it's the truth, sadly. For the record, I am pretty rude. And arrogant. And cynical. I've never really claimed to be a nice person, have I?
@@mr.rogues4145 I was a subscriber. And liked your videos. But with your fuckin weird ass voice n shit I've unsubbed. You don't deserve a single subscriber if you're gonna have that sort of attitude
If he was being fucking rude he would insult his fans in every video and even take his videos down out of spite! If you think he is a rude selfish prick (which he isn't) don't fucking watch his videos! Some people cannot take a fucking joke any more!
I like the stories when Scarecrow is immune to his fear toxin because then he can’t be stopped by his own weapon. I feel that him being defeated by his own toxin has been overdone.
Also at this point it would make sense that he’d be immune to his own fear toxin at this point. Just like in Blackest Night.
Agreed
And it is unoriginal
However it does give us a awesome moment in Arkham Knight when Batman uses Scarecrow’s weapon against him.
@@pendragonxt3674I have to strongly disagree with that being an "awesome moment." It was a cheap cop-out in a cutscene.

Yeah, I don't really know why Crane was absent in the early 70s - he would've been a perfect fit for that spooky era.
@@mr.rogues4145 What's with Scarecrow Being A Ghost Rider Villain?
Scarecrow's an overlooked villain, in general.
Why do you say that?
He's been utilised in the films and the games. I feel that shows appreciation for the character.
Bravo Alley it usually the way he’s handled in the stories as a weak individual and he gets defeated by his own toxic in to many comics
Scarecrow has grown in popularity and use over the last 20 years. Having his own stories without Batman battling Superman, Green Lantern, Aquaman, and Catwoman many many times. He's as major a player as Riddler, Poison Ivy or Two Face in my opinion.
He is to a extent
He really needs a movie where he's the main villain. No being used by bigger villains, just him as the mastermind.
It's to the Scarecrows credit that he's such a mainstay in Batman's world in spite of some writers having difficulty getting a handle on him.
Great video BTW.

YEAY! Another Scarecrow video. Let's give this boy a spinoff!
2:45 Goon: "Batman gags Joker" "Killer Moth netted" "Birdman Caged"
Scarecrow: Birdman?
Goon: Oh sorry, that's an unrelated article. Riggan Thompson's just been done for indecent exposure.
Media Baron and would die if he was exposed for a long period
Yes! A new Top Stories video for my favorite Rogue, The Scarecrow

I love the Scarecrow. So much. I wish he got better stories and writers used him better!

Thanks for the excuse to break out my 3D glasses, Mr. Rogues! The effects come through pretty well in the video.
You left out "Batman:Kings of Fear". Plus, Mad Hatter is one of my favorite villains, so I think he should be given the spotlight.
A story where Robin and Gordon and Alfred were afraid of him would be very interesting. Missed opportunity.
Scarecrow deserves more of the spotlight I think. Great video!
I wish that John Noble would become the default voice actor for Scarecrow. His portrayal of the character in Arkham Knight is superb.
Him or Robert Englund (Injustice 2). There's just something too appropriate about Freddy Krueger voicing the Master of Fear
Re. Scarecrow, I thought DC missed a great opportunity to team him up with other horror-themed villains.
Batman: why you do dis
Scarecrow: cause f them that’s why

Batman Adventures Annual Vol 1 1
" Study Hall" its pretty psychologically dark with a interesting twist
Great video as always, Mr. Rogues! I think an overlooked Scarecrow story would be Batman Gotham Adventures issue 32. A great and overlooked Scarecrow story. Highly recommended for any Scarecrow fans even though Crane isn't in it for much of the issue.
I will have to check these out. One other recommendation I would give is scarecrow's one shot in joker's asylum.
Story is ok but art won't be for everyone.
Is there any story where Crane tortures all the innmates in Arkham at once?? I am looking for a story like that.
Don't think so.
There should be. Scarecrow tormenting the other Arkham inmates would be awesome!
Say what you want about Gotham, but they found our Scarecrow for us I believe. Julian Sands. He's probably too old for most people, but I can't see anyone else honestly, even a younger person for "Black Label" DC movie like Joker.
You should look up the batman young Jason Todd before the revamp during the noctura period...I believe it was called" Frequency of Fear"...Crane dicovered a sound frequency that effects the Brain fear centers....

Scarecrow should be Batman's primary rogue, as he is truly Batman's opposite, but...alas.
Batman #200 was the first comic I ever bought. Thanks, Mr. R, for reminding me of it.
Opposite how? Is Batman optimistic? Does he use hope?
A part of Batman's appeal is his great and diverse rogues gallery. What is great is that different foes present different dangers to Batman or what he cares about. I don't mind that the Scarecrow is not his primary foe. (I do mind that writers overuse the Joker).

Is scarecrow for you the most scariest supervillain of all or is ther someone else?
I have no clue. Scarecrow is often not really scary enough, which is of course a problem.
Hmm. Professor Pyg scares me. The Scarecrow intrigues me with his methodology.
@@bravoalley228 Pyg is by far the most morbid and violent especially when it comes to literally slicing and chopping his victims into bloody jigsaw puzzles. I am a huge Scarecrow fan but Pyg is underused.

Scarecrow’s motivation in that black and white story is what I always thought it should be. Like a drug addict. It would make his motivations way more interesting than the oft used “fear experiments”. Glad to see Geoff Johns thought the same.
Detective comics #389 I feel was a big foreshadowing of the stories of the bronze age. clever!
I want all the Scarecrow comics, then I want to make more, so I can have more Scarecrow comics!
What would happen if scarecrow got a dose of bliss ?
Scarecrow is my favourite villain but I admit that that the only story I know from these is Evil eye. I had never heard of the others but I will read them all this Halloween. The last one sounds really interesting
Since it's Halloween can you do 5 stories of the Green Goblin
Interestingly, test footage of the 66 series actually mentions the deaths of the Wayne’s, so it seems like they still had that origin story in mind. Would’ve made for an interesting Halloween episode.
I just played "Harley Quinn's Revenge" from Arkham city, and it was pretty cool. Especially the Harley themed Titan
If you're going to do one of these for Penguin then I would recomend you read Batman #190, Penguin Takes a Flyer Into the Future. It's silly but very fun. It may not be overlooked as much as some of the others, but it's worth consideration.
Yeah I do remember reading the sweet dreams comic a long time ago
14:54 So Crane hates that Batman, Superman, Lex and Joker are overused? Ha ha.
Have you read BATMAN: KINGS OF FEAR? i think that is a cool Scarecrow comic.
Mr Rogues has already made a review video about "Kings of Fear", go check it out ^^
You always got me covered, Randall - thanks! ;)
So in fear is the key it shows that just like the joker he can't live without the Batman. That Sweet dreams one is impressive it makes you how has scarecrow not on same level as joker.
Any overlooked killer croc stories?
poor johnny, he only wants to spread the joy of fear but no one wants to take him seriously
Happy Halloween. And don't worry about that strange figure watching you from the shadows. It's just a Scarecrow.

Batman says fuccin "oowoo"
People may not agree but i liked the arkham Knight story of scarecrow, i know its not a comic but i think its cool.
I still say “Autobiography of Bruce Wayne” is not only the best Scarecrow story, but the best Batman story by far.
Please, o please, o please do a vid on The Ghost, an old Captain Atom foe. He has stuck with me since I first read about him as a kid 50 (?????) yrs ago. Tnx.

It sure wasn't. Most people think it was though.
Gonna be that guy, 1st \o/
We all know the best Scarecrow is the one from Iron Man :v
Scarecrow has made Batman cry like a bitch before not many if any has done that so let that sink in
Have you seen the trailer for the new scooby doo movie that has elvira and bill nye and of course the scarecrow in it?
so scarecrow is underrated, he used too much as a plot device
I would have placed ''Where Stalks The Scarecrow'' on this list
11:27 I think this is a pretty interesting version.
scarecrow is the best villain in DC but not written well enough sadly
Wait, but how did the fear toxin work on Joker if it was established before that he is immune to it?
Alexander Smith It’s going to sound very convoluted when I say this. If you remember Arkham Knight. Batman was effected by the Joker’s blood. Although Joker was dead in Arkham Knight, indications were there that he can be effected by the fear gas.

Wait I thought Joker can't be affected by Fear Toxin........ah whatever.
He couldn't in the 70s. I guess he can now! Or Crane came up with a more potent drug ;)
Scarecrow is one of (if not THE) greatest chemists in the world, there's no one he can't drug if he puts his mind to it. All it takes is time, and a little trial and error.
Do Batman the cult next because there is supernatural elements in it
Like you, Scarecrow is my favorite villain of all time. He is The Master Of Fear! 😱💉🤯🎃
Indeed.
I actually went as scarecrow for Halloween
Would a worst/silliest list be possible?
Could you do a underrated marvel villain like jack o lantern.
please do top 5 underrated stories for mr. freeze, hatman & the mad hatter
Either someone is a kidder, or someone didn't watch the ending ;)
@@mr.rogues4145 Kidder, but It is something I genuinely want. It's right up there with top 5 disabled hero/villain stories ever since I dislocated my kneecap. Top 5 hero stories before Superman was introduced. top 5 forgotten characters that share names with well known heroes/villains, like the telepathic villain Superman.
P.S. what do you've against Mr.Freeze? he's a good character.
@@insanemakaioshin He has nothing against Mr Freeze, he's said that he is a really cool character but sadly most of his stories sucks
Benjamín Vicente Yarrá Berrios fair enough
Have you considered a top 5 centered around gentleman ghost?
He already did a "Top 5 Best Gentleman Ghost Stories " like 6 months ago ^^
You are right! 🤦♂️
Well you could've just asked me, if you needed some good Scarecrow comics that you haven't mentioned yet. #scarecrowbestvillain
I love you.
When’s the next Forgotten Superheroes episode?
Hugo Strange used a Fear Gas long before Scarecrow... way back in Detective #46
Yes. I am the Master of Fear!
You are not the master of fear, I am!
@@somethingofascientist5764No I'm dirty Dan!
@@Assassin42481 I'm batman
Where’s a good place to read these comics online?
I prefer your old voice
5 overlooked Killer Moth stories?
Doubtful.
All of them.
This video wasn't as scary as I thought.
SPOILERS
Doesn't that 3D issue end with Scarecrow being defeated because he gets high off Bliss' drugs and trips balls?
Yup.
@@mr.rogues4145 Amazing
Damn bro. You want subscribers or not? You seem to come off as standoffish and rude. 😠
About what? That Scarecrow stories generally suck? Well, it's the truth, sadly.
For the record, I am pretty rude. And arrogant. And cynical.
I've never really claimed to be a nice person, have I?
@@mr.rogues4145 I was a subscriber. And liked your videos. But with your fuckin weird ass voice n shit I've unsubbed.
You don't deserve a single subscriber if you're gonna have that sort of attitude
If he was being fucking rude he would insult his fans in every video and even take his videos down out of spite! If you think he is a rude selfish prick (which he isn't) don't fucking watch his videos! Some people cannot take a fucking joke any more!
If you want to talk to a UA-camr who is truly rude and arrogant go to Channel Nerd-Gasm
Good riddance.
