If you live in the EU feel free to check out my "store" where I'm selling part of my comic collection: www.tradera.com/profile/items/4753168/mrrogues Several comics from this video are up for sale there, actually. Do keep in mind tho, that the site's in Swedish.
2:03 - Crane'sn't sadistic! He's a warning about overindulging in an obsession. He's a scientist that let his desire to learn about fear consume him to the point of abandoning his morals. *He was on his way to become the Psychiatric Florence Nightingale, but his addiction turned him into Mengele.* 4:55 - Says he's sadistic but shows him talking about SCIENCE! 8:20 - When one's desire to learn about something goes too far & one seeks to be further consumed by their obsession. 10:10 - I agree. It makes the Scarecrow better & more humane. 13:50 - That's who the Scarecrow is. He's a doctor that wanted to improve the field of psychiatry, but let his research consume him to the point of addiction.
Hi sir, i love you videos. But, do you recall a channel that made videos called "villain guides" Which included guys like Anton Arcane and Suma-Gorath etc. They are in the same catagory as the ones you make, so im just curious if you know about those videos, and if you know what happened to the channel?
Yes that’s true! Probably my favorite example of that power in effect was when the joker personality of Batman in the Arkham knight video game was exposed to the fear toxin. It exposed that deep down Joker is not completely free of fear despite what some think. His fear is to be forgotten by the people of Gotham, to have no one mourn his for him when he’s gone. Fitting since he’s a very vain diva of a supervillain.
I love how Scarecrow just... fancies himself the devil in that No Man's Land story. It's a top shelf Batman story for sure, his role is very well-written, even if the resolution is a little sappy. I'll have to check out Kings of Fear, I'm glad it came out well!
@@cyclopsboxhead5318 Right? The Scarecrow and his delusional dialogue are the best thing, but that part with the reformed thug ties it all very nicely and gives you a reason to care, it really is the highlight of the No Man's Land saga imo.
Slightest tiny correction, Becky isn't a teenager. She's a university student that studies law, so she's most likely an adult attending college. Most students who partake in law school are about in their 20's.
Wow I’m surprised something beat no mans land on your list but I see the reasons! Glad to see you warm up to kings of fear as well! As for my personal favorite. I think blackest night and Gotham knighted are my ideal depictions of scarecrow for my personal head cannon. Addicted to fear and desperate to feel/spread it. But I just as much enjoy *The fear State* and that one part in *Legends of the dark knight* as they also portray how a guy like cran could feel he’s doing a good thing despite the dastardly methods he uses. Plus his designs are AMAZING there!
I never really liked the origen of "my father experimented on me" for scarecrow because really just feel like scarecrow and his father as the same character than anything else, even if there is some thematic significance on that of trauma
I can certainly understand that. If you amp up Just how much crane was Bullied in his youth and emphasis, his family drama I think it evens out why he is the way he is, without making his dad a more boring version of himself.
@Greater Grievobeast 55 You guys really don't understand the concept of cycle of violence, do you? Crane was simply repeating the pattern of pain his Father instilled in him. Is it any worse than being bullied constantly?
@@zemox2534 i understand the cycle of violence you dude, and just because is a thing that actually happens, doesn't mean is a lazy excuse for a scarecrow's start, oh how crane because so twisted??? His dad was literally him, in all senses, was obsessed with the same things and did the same as him with pretty much all the same methods, ahhh...okey then, so how the dad became like that, don't tell me gramps also was a fear scientific The problem isn't the cycle of violence, is that crane being a fear scientific that torture people become empty if his dad is... another fear scientific that also torture people, is not clever
Mistress of Fear. I've yet to actually read it, but that is a real humdinger. Becky and Johnny are the same, bullied geeks, of course Crane would want to help her... in his own way. Almost a shame Becky never became Scarecrow's Harley Quinn, but short of depicting Crane as a fear worshiping cult leader, I find he works best alone. Fear has no friends after all...
It would have been cool if she became his protégé, like a terror dynamic duo. It also could have made for a cool story at some later point in the timeline where she becomes the new Scarecrow when Crane dies/retires and goes up against a Dick Grayson or Tim Drake Batman.
I'm glad Becky never became Scarecrow's Harley Quinn. If she did, she'd just be Harley Quinn, 2.0, and that's boring. Scarecrow and Becky could have an entirely different dynamic or something. And I can't really see Becky taking up the Scarecrow mantle at some point. She uses a cane, you really think she'd be able to fight Batman, or other superheroes? Unlikely. Edit: and he never really helped Becky in the first place. His "helping" her was just an accident, a byproduct of the fear he was trying to cause her to have. Even his offering Becky to be the Mistress of Fear was done with one goal in mind: to ruin her.
One of my favorite Scarecrow stories has gotta be Year One. Not only did I enjoy the story but God, the artwork was gorgeous to me. I only dream to develop my artstyle close to that. The story was also really good. I sorta gave Crane a new backstory while also keeping everything from his old one. Basically his old backstory but with added details. Like the addition of Grandma Keeny and how she'd cruelly punish Jonathon for the simplest things like reading a book. And how Jonathon learning how to control fear because of her. I'm terrible at explaining stuff but you should really check it out if you haven't already. It's probably not the best Scarecrow story out there but it's number 1 for me!
Now this one I've been waiting for a long time. Even though you have already talked about all these stories in the past, it was interesting to see the way you ranked them. I'm very happy to see Kings of Fear and Concert of Fear made it into the top 5 as those are also some of my personal favourites, the former has a near perfect characterisation of Crane and (in my opinion) the second best design Scarecrow has ever sported, and the latter is just a lot of fun. It's surprising how low Sinister Straws and Cycle of Violence have come to be in comparison to their placements in the original top, specially the latter. While I understand Cycle has it flaws, like for instances feeling too excessively edgy, I still think it's a highly enjoyable read with a great Scarecrow origin and my single favourite Scarecrow moment ever, this being when the little girl he kidnapped gives him a drawing of them together, i don't know, it was just a surprisingly touching scene in such a gory story and it added a lot of humanity to Jonathan as he is actually kinda moved by this act, he may be a psycho but he's still got a heart... just a bit.
Fear for Sale might be my favourite Scarecrow story solely for the scene where he goads the drugged-up racing driver into jumping to his death then walks away laughing. I got chills reading that part. Two of my favourites not on this list are Gothtopia from the New 52 and his chapter in the Heart of Hush storyline.
I think No Man's Land Scarecrow is my favorite. The thing is I think the Scarecrow must not be sympathetic or understandable by a normal person, to be an effective villain. The writer should be able to communicate the mind of a torturer that does what he does just because he's good at that, because doing things that you are good at makes you feel happy and satisfied with your life. The Scarecrow just happens to be naturally good at terrorizing and manipulating people. Not that a 100% bullied Scarecrow doesn't work for me. But I think that the "bullied" should be just a trigger to make Crane realize how good he's at terrorizing people. If I could rewrite his origin, I would give him the role of the bully: initially he is the bully target and also with an psychologically abusive family member, because he is physically weak and seems the perfect target for that; but, after reflecting on how not scary and unefficient his tormentors really are (since they couldn't even break a skinny little boy like himself) he starts to understand how fear works and counter-tormenting them in more subtle ways, driving them to insanity. He is... A natural. A monster unleashed by random acts of cruelty. A Serial-terrorist, if you want. I think the Scarecrow should be way more on the "Unredeemable Evil" side than on the "Sympathetic and Unlucky" side of rogues.
That is a pretty interesting perspective on the character. And an imposing reaction to being treated poorly. More out of a need to improve the method than revenge. Ever still I sort of like the notion that Crane believes people and even himself is better off with terror in their hearts. Like he’s been made to be scared for so long in his life its made him a master at terrifying others due to self experience. And worse, he sees the absence of fear as a perversion. A misfortune to be corrected. In no mans land’s I think that perspective works in how he’s content with the church mob killing him, but is absolutely distraught when they forgive him.
There are two stories that I think should’ve been on this list, identity crisis, and god of fear, since they were both written by the same guy Alan Grant. The first story shows the first time Tim drake ever put on the robin costume, Plus scarecrow scheme is pretty clever, he phone calls random people and then mails them strange masks with specially design chemicals that turn them psychotic and loose on the city. The second story from Shadow of the bat feature scarecrow, starting a cult of kids, wearing costumes similar to him committing crimes and causing all kinds of problems. One of the kids is actually the son of one of his murder victims, and since this took place during nightfall, if features Jean-Paul Valley as Batman and he has to deal with this situation. combined over the fact that Anarchy becomes a problem for bats too in the story and you got a fun read.
Hi, Rogues. I am surprised that neither my favorite nor second favorite made the cut! My favorite story is "Six Days of The Scarecrow" in Detective Comics#503 (1981). My second favorite is the somewhat meta story that transitions Batman from camp to the more murder mystery and noir, " Batman's Evil Eye" in Detective Comics#389(1969).
My list would have God of Fear from Knightfall, The Fearless Man from the Gotham City Villains Special that came out this year, and the Cowardly Lot by James Tynion IV. God of Fear is great cause I love when Scarecrow is written with a kind of god complex, super entertaining. And his methods are fun, we get to see up close and personal fear inflicted on his mind controlled minions while city wide panic is inflicted on everyone else. The Fearless Man I love for its cult-imagery, and how its fixation on "what would we do without fear" reminds me of Fear for Sale. The art is very Mignola-esque which fits Scarecrow VERY WELL. And then the Cowardly Lot just feels like the natural progression from Fear of Faith, a city-wide scarecrow attack without any fear toxin. Just some well placed scarecrow dummies in secure locations. I never see any stories really leaning into that aesthetic part of Scarecrow. And while his design might not be for everyone, I love it. Plus I'm just a sucker for James Tynion IV's writing. Honorable mention for the Man-Bat solo series, Scarecrow was trying out subliminal audio in place of fear gas and it's super freaky, his characterization was good but there was something keeping it from really hitting it for me. But also I'm not sure I've even read 10 Scarecrow stories.
17:00 Bliss was also the name of a gas a villain called Narcosis who the Mad Hatter worked with during No Man's Land used. Tetch agreed to help Narcosis spread the gas through Gotham in exchange for his mask.
You have probably already talked about this but I'm curious what you thought of the reimagining of Mr Freeze's origin in the New 52 (which has since been retconed). Personally I think it's great if you look at it as an "Else world" story which it basically is now.
No Mans Land: Fear of Faith story is PERFECT for The Batman 2 plot- while Gotham city is in ruins thanks to Riddlers bombing, citizens are haunted by rogue criminals and Scarecrow comes in to further terrorise everyone and who's there to help him? Penguion of course, who becomes the Kingpin of Crime in ruins of Gotham City. You can also throw in Cycle of Violence and Mistress of Fear as well to further scement Scarecrows backstory, motivation and character development
Yeah but I think it’s an even better opportunity for Mr Freeze because considering the city is flooded, you could turn it all into ice 🧊. How many chances will we get for that
Scarecrow is a good villain shame he’s mostly used as a side piece or forgotten especially in media like movies or tv shows. I feel it would be cool if tried to fuck with more characters then the bat family like trying to mess with other villains to show he can come for anyone.
Scarecrow is never perfectly squared in his characterization. He has a huge kooky streak but rarely does it show without his mask, and never is it precisely explained. It is odd given he's probably in his 50s at least at a certain point.
I do not read comics but I do like watching the cartoons like Batman:TAS, Batman Beyond, Teen Titans ( classic), Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, and Super Friends. I also love reading about the characters in my character encyclopedias which gives me ideas for creating my own characters! 💡😀
PLEASE don't take this the wrong way, but I think your videos were cooler when it was your badass voice and the comic pictures rather than a face cam. Please do not take this as an offense please.

Do scarecrow and Harley Quinn have any connection moment, since both of n them were psychologist before becoming criminals?

@Mr. Rogues please make a trilogy for Superman movie with your own version of idea just like the flash one you just did.😁
The thing I like about Scarecrow is that he makes you see your fears. Whether we want to admit it or not, we all have them.
Yes that’s true! Probably my favorite example of that power in effect was when the joker personality of Batman in the Arkham knight video game was exposed to the fear toxin.

@@cyclopsboxhead5318 It is the Definitive Scarecrow story.
@@zemox2534 Couldn't agree more
Thank you mr rouges for the recommendations to a fellow scarecrow fan.
If Matt Reeves The Batman gets a sequel, I hope Scarecrow is the main villain!
I heard one time DC is reportedly making an R-rated solo film on Scarecrow.
@@TarhosTheKnight just make him a villain
he fits this reeves universe more than riddler lol
Someone made a fan casting of potential future Batman villains, with Bill Skarsgard as Scarecrow, and I’d LOVE to see that
With how scary Riddler was, I have full faith in Reeves' take on Crane.
Absolutely, Scarecrow deserves the spotlight as the main Villain!
Slightest tiny correction, Becky isn't a teenager. She's a university student that studies law, so she's most likely an adult attending college. Most students who partake in law school are about in their 20's.
Oops. Yeah, that makes more sense.

Kings of Fear is probably my favorite scarecrow comic!
Best villian in DC history

Hey Mr Rogues can you do the 10 best Doctor Octopus stories next.
I'm surprised that you found enough great stories to make this. Good on you
Wasn't easy.

Yes, I LOVE The Scsrecrow! Thank You!
Scarecrow. Although what I wrote is good too
Scarecrow is my #2 Bat Baddie right aftter Penguin. Fun Vid.
Love this channel
to Mr. rogues, your Askham patient sessions are one of the best things I've ever heard, you should be righting batman
It would be so cool if you did a “fixing Arkham Two Face” video, what you think they could’ve done with the character, visually and story wise
17:00 Bliss was also the name of a gas a villain called Narcosis who the Mad Hatter worked with during No Man's Land used. Tetch agreed to help Narcosis spread the gas through Gotham in exchange for his mask.

i like him in trials in the batman animated series he doesnt do much but him walking down the stairs with the scythe always stuck with me
Scarecrow debuted long before most of Batmans rouges gallery but didn't start to get used frequently until the late 70's/early 80's
Believe me, if the story of concert of fear it's great, with the 3d glasses it's much better. The draw and 3D effects looks pretty awesome.
What do you think of the scarecrow story "the fearless man" from Gotham city anniversary giant?
Great video, thank you 🙏
7:04 The close up on his eyes there does a great job of making him look creepy.
Great video! Fear of Faith is my favourite Scarecrow story.
I think anarky IS underrated

Yeah but I think it’s an even better opportunity for Mr Freeze because considering the city is flooded, you could turn it all into ice 🧊. How many chances will we get for that
@@Johnnysmithy24
In realistic world of Reevesverse the best Mr. Freeze could do is freeze locks, freezing entire bodies of water would be unrealistic
I feel like they could of put Scarecrow, Scarface the puppet, Bane and Hugo Strange on 60's Adam West Batman series. I would liked to see that
There was an animated movie about two face that was set in the west-verse where Strange and Dr. Quinzel show up for a while
Great to see another list
Scarecrow is a good villain shame he’s mostly used as a side piece or forgotten especially in media like movies or tv shows. I feel it would be cool if tried to fuck with more characters then the bat family like trying to mess with other villains to show he can come for anyone.
I just read the God of Fear story from the Knightfall arc and thought it was fantastic.
Wow, those last two sound amazing!
Nice to have another vid dedicated to Johnny Crane
“He starts to bond with her” NO NO NO NO WAIT WAIT WAIT
The scarecrow it's so underated as a villen .
Considering that he got killed of in the Harley Quinn tv series .
Make a video about the top 5 Best Samurai Jack Villains, please!!!!!!
Scarecrow is never perfectly squared in his characterization. He has a huge kooky streak but rarely does it show without his mask, and never is it precisely explained. It is odd given he's probably in his 50s at least at a certain point.
I do not read comics but I do like watching the cartoons like Batman:TAS, Batman Beyond, Teen Titans ( classic), Justice League, Justice League Unlimited, and Super Friends. I also love reading about the characters in my character encyclopedias which gives me ideas for creating my own characters! 💡😀
Nice list, man. But I really miss your old video format.
Joker and Scarecrow have one thing in common in that they both get a kick out of scaring and terrorizing people.
Neat idea! very much a DC deep cut!!
Fear of Faith sounds very familiar for some reason.
Miss getting new videos
Scarecrow it's the only character who does crime .
Just for the experiment like let's see what will happen if push this button.
Why wait so long to make this video Rouges? You weren't scared were you?
M-M-Maybe..
A fun video idea is if you think there could be a good redemption arc for the batman villains or your favorite non btas redemption stories are
I think i heard that the gotham scarecrow had the new 52 origin story
Epouvantable!
Let me answer the why they fit together question by simply using a quote from Scarecrow in Injustice 2: We are both Agents of Chaos
Can we say Junko Enoshima is Fear is the Key Scarecrow with Despair instead of Fear?
10:40 sound like a side effect of Urbach-Wiethe.
I prefer the old video format
Sometimes I think that too, but it’s easier for him so I personally don’t mind it
PLEASE don't take this the wrong way, but I think your videos were cooler when it was your badass voice and the comic pictures rather than a face cam. Please do not take this as an offense please.
I don't know why, but I like evil doctors😅
Wish you'd go back to showing stills from comics/games etc with a voice over like you used to. Much better
I will if you join my Patreon and pay me.
Doctor dead it's also a messed up villen
I liked The Gotham version
