So today we will be looking at Jonathan Crane aka The Scarecrow. The Scarecrow was introduced to us in World's Finest Comics #3, way back in 1941.
Crane uses a mixture of psychology and fear tactics to cause his victims to hallucinate, turn insane and he can also literally scare people to death using a special concoction of chemicals that floods the victim with their deepest fears. The Scarecrow has used these custom weapons to tear havoc through the streets of Gotham over the years, be it on his own or with other super-criminals as part of The Injustice Gang or The Sinestro Corps.
This can even be seen in the two of the three most recent Batman films with Raz al Guhl and Bane, this is where the trivia comes in.
Did you know that Jonathan Crane is the only villain to appear in each of the Christopher Nolan films and this is more than any other villain, including The Joker who is portrayed as Batman's greatest enemy. Although he appears in all three film, he only portrays the Scarecrow in two of them (snippets throughout Batman Begins and The very beginning of The Dark Knight) because he is shown in 'normal' clothes when acting as the judge in The Dark Knight Rises.
