Dubbed "the Scarecrow" because of his tall, thin body, young Jonathan Crane was ostracized by his peers to the point where he took out his frustration by scaring animals. After graduating college with a degree in psycology, Crane made a study of fear his specialty while teaching at Gotham University. However, Crane was finally fired for crazed experiments that put his students at risk.
Crane began donning a tattered, straw-covered costume, furthering the resemblance of his nickname. He initially hired out his services to corrupt businessmen who sought to cow their rivals, but Crane was clobbered by Batman and Robin. Over the years, the Scarecrow has been in and out of Arkham Asylum, and remains-compared to other criminals, who are generally limited to striking physical blows-one of Batman's most unnerving foes.
