In "The Riddle of the Human Scarecrow," Dick Grayson—ever vigilant in the park—spots the Scarecrow tampering with buried loot from a past crime, sparking a tense confrontation. With Batman at his side, the duo faces off against their cunning foe, only to be overcome by a sudden wave of fear gas that leaves them blind. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Sheldon Moldoff, with inks by Joe Giella and letters by Gaspar Saladino, this 2016 tale delivers a classic Gotham thriller. The cover, by Jason Fabok, captures the moment of dread with chilling precision.
In "The Scarecrow Returns," former teacher Professor Jonathan Crane unleashes a chilling game of wordplay, using simple phrases to signal his crimes. Batman and Robin must unravel the clues before the Man of Straw strikes again, turning Gotham’s streets into a twisted classroom of fear.
In "Fright of the Scarecrow!", Dick Grayson finds himself caught in a tense game of cat and mouse when he spots the Scarecrow digging up old loot in a city park. With Batman by his side, the duo confronts the villain only to be overwhelmed by his terrifying fear gas—leaving them vulnerable in the dark.
In "The 6 Days of the Scarecrow," Scarecrow unleashes a terrifying new pheromone that turns Batman’s own presence into a source of paralyzing dread—even for those who stand beside him. With his usual methods compromised, Batman must rely on Robin and Batgirl to hunt him down before the fear spreads beyond control.
