Preferably in trade paperbacks. I like Scarecrow, but it seems like the really popular Batman comics don't have him as the main villain.

Try PMing ShadowHalo about it, he should know as Scarecrow's #1 fan.

And then tell him to post the list in here or the comics topic anyways.

No need to PM me as I am RIGHT HERE.

First of all read Absolute Terror. Detective Comics 835 and 836.

Scarecrow: Year One is good, but it's not technically canon.

Joker's Asylum has a really good Scarecrow issue.

There's a part in the Knightfall saga called God of Fear which is good.

His appearance in No Man's Land is pretty great too (the whole freakin' story of No Man's Land is a must read though).

I'll post more as I think of them.

Are any of these in trade paperbacks? I know I've seen Joker's Asylum before, but what about the others?

Oh, Superman/Batman: Torment has a good Scarecrow appearance, although he's not the main villain.

Yeah it's sad, as amazing of a villain that he is I don't think he gets the recognition that he deserves. There aren't a lot of stories that feature him. And you'd think after he was the favorite in the Arkham Asylum video game DC would take advantage of that and make some more Scarecrow comics.

But really, Absolute Terror. Read it.

Not sure. I would assume Year One is, but it might be hard to find. Knightfall and No Man's Land have TPBs but not of the Scarecrow sections alone. You'd have to buy the whole story (which you should anyway because both are overall great stories and it'd make the Scarecrow sections better if you were more familiar with the setting).

As for Absolute Terror, it's only two issues so if there is a TPB it'd be collected with something else. I don't know though, never seen anything. Might have to get those issues separate if you can.

Yeah I'd rather read the whole stories anyway. I wouldn't want to play just the Scarecrow parts of Arkham Asylum.

Well good. Knightfall is pretty great, No Man's Land is the greatest Bat-Family story around.

Wasn't God of Fear during Knightquest though? Knightquest was never collected. Probably because it's...not very good, overall (that story was, though).

There's a Scarecrow story starting in Batman: The Dark Knight next month (6/27) from an excellent writer responsible for a very good Penguin mini a few months ago, if you're willing to buy floppies.

No it's Shadow of the Bat 16-18, which was in "Who Rules the Night". And I'm pretty sure that was a part of Knightfall.

So I can actually start reading The Dark Knight this month? And look forward to a great Scarecrow issue next month?

GLORIOUS!
