Product Description:
Professor turned criminal Jonathan Crane specializes in fear. He knows how to take a simple phobia and turn it into a life-threatening syndrome. Since his introduction in 1941, the Scarecrow has been one of the Dark Knights most difficult foes to defeat. And soon, he will be one of the foes featured in the upcoming Batman Begins feature film! In this collection of eight stories spanning more than 60 years, some of the best known Batman writers and artists take their turn at creating chilling escapades.

In this collection, we get to know the master of fear a little better, The Scarecrow. Just like The Greatest Joker Stories Ever Told was released in 1988 in anticipation of the '89 Batman movie featuring The Joker, Scarecrow Tales was released close to Batman Begins, which features The Scarecrow and helped introduce him to the general non-comic reading public. The good thing about that is the stories range from 1941 all the way to 2002.

If you've read the most recent representations of the Scarecrow, you may feel as though they have messed the character up. He just recites nursery rhymes and randomly sprays people with fear gas. He is not a calculating, sociopathic madman with grand ambition. I believe the latter should define the Scarecrow character. That is what he was for nearly forty years.

Overall a decent collection of Scarecrow stories and artwork, but in the end none of the stories were really that good. If you are a fan of Dr. Crane than this is definitely a worthy addition to your collection (simply for nostalgia, I suppose), but otherwise you may just want to pass this one by.

If your a fan of the scarecrow, you're gonna love this! This book includes Scarecrows oldests and newests crimes, like "The 6 days of Scarecrow". Trust me, if you don't like Scarecrow now, wait until you see 'Batman Begins'. That's right, he's the villian! Buy the book, see Scarecrow on the big Screen, and enjoy Scarecrow Tales by ???? ?????. This book is awesome! Come See, Twisted Jon Crance beaten by Batman and Robin! It'll bw worth the cost of the book!
