DAMN it’s been a while since I made a Myths and Mysteries video. The main reason I took so long is because I quit halfway through my Ras al Ghul Myths and Mysteries, and then my computer broke down. That meant I could no longer store heavy amounts of footage and make videos about them. I always had a Scarecrow video planned for Halloween, I called in every favour to make this happen; well here it is. It’s not as long as my other videos, but that’s because I skipped the pointless introductions about the characters, I also made this on an Iphone and not my Desktop, hence it being as short as it possibly could be. BTW: Huge shoutout to my buddy MyRedChao, he helped me make the information stills with the Chiller font. He also provided me with all the music I needed for the video. So If we really get down to it; he pretty much did most of the work here. Go subscribe to him, he makes pretty decent content-> good content: kzfaq.info/love/tjZRhxn-O0n9pkYQEBoEmA

It’s my head canon that Killer Croc mutilated Scarecrow, damaging his face beyond recognition, and beyond fixing, and he blamed Batman for what happened to him, He blames him for not stopping Killer Croc, So he worked in the shadows, not without leaving Batman to know that he will pay for what he’s done, and that he will be back.

"One step closer and THIS goes into the water" *Batman takes multiple steps closer* 😂

Ngl I kinda wish Knight expanded a bit more on Scarecrow’s motives on his plan aside from poisoning the city with fear. From what I heard, there is a theory that Crane at one point tried to place a bounty on Croc, but was unsuccessful, but I’m not sure if it’s actually true as Scarecrow never mentions or even said anything about the attack (it also doesn’t help that Croc was a eventual DLC side villain in Knight). They should of added a bit a dialogue at the end where Batman tries to explain to Crane that it was his fault for unknowingly entering Croc’s lair. Crane: All of this is my vengeance for you leaving me to die back in the Asylum with that…thing! Batman: It’s not my fault Crane. I tried to save you when Jones grabbed you. You should of known not to enter Croc’s lair, especially when near the water. If I hadn’t did what I did, Croc would of tore a good chunk of your body. You should be grateful that you’re even still alive. Crane: Grateful!? Because of you, that eyesore almost devoured me! I barely managed to get out alive! Look what it did to my face! Because of your actions, I have to live the rest of my days as an outcast, a shell of my former self, a broken man! Well now, my dark knight, I will make you, along with this corrupted city, suffer the same torture and agony as I suffered then… (Not the best dialogue, but something like that could work).

Scarecrow seems more sane after being bitten by Croc, Croc is the real doctor in the Asylum

Personal theory/ head-cannon: Crane's voice and appearance are drastically different in the two games. I think this is because after being facially disfigured and having his leg/torso mauled by Croc, and then somehow managing to escape, he dragged what was left of himself onto the Titan container in the bay, but he was otherwise fatally wounded and losing a lot of blood, so in a last desperate move, Crane injected himself one time with a minimal, concentrated dose of Titan, just enough to recover from the wounds. It worked, he survived, but it resulted in further permanent physical alterations, such as turning his skin pale-grey, turning his eyes a cloudy, dead-white, and altering his voice to sound deeper than before. That's my head-cannon on why Scarecrow looks and sounds so different in Arkham Knight..

The cockroaches in the containers are a reference too. In arkham knight there are those same crates on the stagg airships the you can rip open with the grapple.

man good job personally i just play the games but people who look deeper into the games find things that are so important to the story of the game so ill give you a thumbs up for trying to solve or bringing light to the Arkham myths and mysteries

Maybe Scarecrow got his revenge on Croc by getting him caught and/or sent to the prison airship we see in the Arkham Knight DLC where Croc gets abused and experimented on. It wouldn’t be out of the question seeing as Scarecrow had connections to Stagg industries, so a prison would be light work

It'd make sense if Scarecrow's toxin had titan in it. It'd be why it aggravated the infect Joker blood that Batman had when he was exposed to the toxin.

This is a perfect theory I always tried looking for crane in Arkham city after I found his base and his mask thinking I could find and defeat him but sadly that wasn’t a side mission

I don’t know man… I always feel like scarecrow, hated Batman to begin with, always messing with him in the asylum, with those giant size hallucinations, I just feel the killer croc incident actually gave him even more pure hatred, I guess to start with scarecrow did hate Batman… I mean what villain of Batman doesn’t? But this time to scarecrow it became personal instead of just all fun and games in the asylum

Naaah he really got bullied by som crocodile and let it out on the whole city lmao

Title: What happened to Scarecrow in Arkham Asylum? Me: He got his shit wrecked, that’s what happened.

Can we all agree than Crane had serious injuries in his entire body, and he was surrounded by salad water?? That sould have hurt as fuck

After Arkham Asylum Crane definitely had to get medical treatment or performed it himself and went in hiding to make his fear-toxin even more potent. Stagg provided technical muscle and manufacturing capabilities in exchange for Crane getting rid of some of his rivals and promise of commercial adaptations after Scarecrow's mission is over. Of course both had plans to betray another. Crane also dosed himself with his fear-toxin to judge it's potency and those definitely did not make him any saner. As side-note Arkham Knight must have been planning his operation and stumbled upon Scarecrow's plan while preparing for it.

Idk if anyone knows but there is a scene or a voice line in Arkham knight with 2 scarecrow goons asking what happened to scarecrows face and one guard says,”I heard killer croc messed up his face “

I wish Arkham Knight explained Scarecrow’s appearance more clearly, it took me 8 years to realise that he’s not wearing a mask

You can heard militia conversations about Scarecrow being mauled by a crocodile.

In Arkham Knight Dr. Crane/Scarecrow’s bio says what happened to him. It describes that his face was indeed mutilated by killer croc and that is the reason scarecrow is seeking revenge during the storyline. The entire story revolves around stopping various villains with Scarecrow being the last one to stop. No spoilers as to what he plans for anyone who hasn’t played it but Scarecrow’s attack plan is by far the most clever and most dangerous and this is all because, he blames Batman for his disfigurement in the sewers.

The only issue I have with this is that Crane didn't perfect his fear toxin. Stagg did. Stagg does state he was dissapointed with the effects of the fear toxin and in the subsequent experiments we first hear a man mumbling delusional, clearly affected but not much else, but then with Stagg's improvements the victim is absolutely histerical and screaming. It seems it was Stagg that improved the formula after all, and then this was compounded by the effects of the Nimbus Field generated by the Cloudburst.

The theory of Scarecrow surviving the attack by using a fear toxin against Croc makes more sense now. Killer Croc in one of Batman's death screens in Season of Infamy shows Croc wanting to kill Batman for leaving him with Scarecrow. The experience of the fear toxin was so traumatic for Croc that he wanted to take revenge on Batman.

I can only imagine what he looked like when he swims to shore with his injuries before seeking medical attention Looks Amazing❤ Loved The Games❤

Here’s my take on the post credits scene: I don’t think Titan was used in cranes toxin, I believe the end cutscene was used to inform the truest Batman players of 2009 who played all difficulties and got all endings; letting them know that Croc escaped, Bane didn’t drown and that crane survived. (Of course in city this lets the player know how bane discovered Titan). I don’t see how crane would need Titan, other than to maybe sell it to someone for money to focus on research, and I think croc doesn’t care enough/too stupid to know what it is. Crane probably used the money to fund the barge (at a marked down price since old Gotham was getting closed up to build Arkham city), at one point tossing away his old mask and the crows gathering it for a nest build on the bridge. His face was all he could salvage in my opinion(not plastic surgery), his vocal cords probably needed reconstructed explaining his voice change. Croc also damaged his leg, crane is seen with a leg brace in knight. Crane should’ve gotten revenge on croc for disfiguring him, not Batman for like making him lose focus or something. Knights plot barely connects with the other games, it’s beats from the last two are “joker blood poison” and “scarecrow exists”. I think they could’ve done better than making knight a huge checklist and squandering Paul Dinis amazing writing, he was really setting something up with hush, ra’s al goul etc…

I think that once crane got dragged under, he got mutilaed, and brought to the brink of death, but he used titan to stay alive and because of the massive high of titan, his demear changed to be calmer.

Scarecrow grabbing the crate is canon it says so in arkham city

Dude these videos are so good, the production is amazing with that overall eerie vibe for all of them, top tier content and very innovative.

That’s a very good explanation. No wonder why scarecrow has the undead like appearance whole time.

ok i have to say, this was actually incredible. u are criminally underrated.

Anyone else see the bag of nighmare dust Scarecrow dropped and thought "Wait, you're just gonna leave it there, Batman? Right next to the sewer water?"

honestly want to see a sit down between Scarecrow and Croc

Maybe the reason Croc looks more animalistic then ever in Knight is because he got his hands on some Titan, like what we see in Arkham Asylum. It's likely that all three endings are somewhat canon.

Damn, this was good, this was really really good.

Thank you for the awesome and informative video, king!

His boat in AC has the bug cages you break in the Airship of AK

He decided to become the main Antagonist. No more no less. He was tired of being the side villain

I mean they all could be canon endings in asylum since we see bane croc and scarecrow ginted In city couldve been three different crates

A very good explanation, for that, I give you a like and subscribed to your channel!

well.....i enjoyed that.....quite the detective work there batman. Thankyou for the deep dive

He got hit with a fucking retcon stick, that's what happened. Somehow being mauled by Croc, whom he doesn't even blame for some reason, turned his high pitched voice into a pleasant deep baritone.

The croc mission was scary but imagine being on fear toxin with crock stalking you

I wish there was titan fueled version to fight of croc in city that be terrifying

I mean he’s in Arkham knight lol 😆 , they could’ve put dialogue of what scarecrow went through with killer croc Cuz crow was a big part of Arkham knight lol he’s damn near the main antagonist towards the end, next to red hood

i also noticed scarecrow is a bit more banged up, he has a leg brace, and i think his arm is also broken

crocs titan ending could also be canon too since in Arkham Knight he grew a tail and was more mutated

Good job man. You put everything in its place. If I remember rightly, we can also see criminals with scarecrow mask when Protocol 10 is activated and before we go to stop Strange, right?

Killer Croc new name is CROC LESNAR, cause in wrestling everybody scared to face Brock 1 on 1 & obviously Scarecrow is scared to run a fade with Killer Croc.. So he gonna blame Batman instead lol

8:09 I WAS SO SURPRISED THE FIRST TIME I HEARD THIS IN GAME

My question is how did scarecrow escape from killer crock it was never explained in knight I wanted flashbacks with scarecrow

I do believe Scarecrow used the titan to mixed with his fear toxin in Arkham knight.

Wya bro. Also you should use your voice on the part were you put the readings. Asome content man

I hope you have a terror-ific Halloween, choco!

Great job 👍👏

Happy Halloween Mr Choco

That arkham asylum post credit scene led to nothing 😂

Pretty solid theory, man, althought I believe Scarecrow didn't reach Arkham City right after the asylum, but got there subsequentialy when he heard the plans of it to become the prison it will be

My only question is what the hell was Scarecrow’s voice in that first game? Sounded like starscream

What about Arkham Origins? I always wondered if there's a connection between Scarecrow & Copperhead

At 5:04 those insect crates are the same as the ones from staggs airships in Arkham knight

Look at the shipping invoice to crane in the falcone boat, it has mr.fine written on it and the gas cans sre in riddler rooms, maybe they worked together

10:03 oh yea I forgot that Jason sneaked into the batcave and stole 3 billion dollars in the Arkham comics

you forgot to mention that in city while proticall 10 is in effect you can go outside of the toy factory where you find bane and there will be scarecrow thugs laying on the ground and yes i say scarecrow thugs they have scarecrow esc masks on

Simple. He said "f8ck off everything. I'm the main villain now."

A thing has to be said, what he did to his face was intentional, he wanted to abbandon the identity of Jonathan Crane to fully imbrace the Scarecrow personality

i only played once and got the scarecrow ending and got me thinking thats how he get to spread whatever the hell it is in arkham knight

THAT'S SO COOL!

Cool bro

For 7 years I thought scarecrow was still wearing a mask to cover up his mutilated face😂

What music did you use? I'd like to use it for a video. And what computer, editing source and recorder did you use?

The fact that they predicted the next Arkham game tho

Gotta admit, Crane should have felt some kind of way after Batman technically saved him from Croc lol. He's just gonna pretend that didn't count.

I’m just kind of confused because he had his own mask and then he switched it to something way different What did you do during batman Arkham city?

choco dropping 60k views lets go

Happy halloween

He was rolling down in the deep.

He returned in arkham knight

1:22 Scarecrow is probably THE most dangerous lunatic that I have ever faced in the city next to Joker & Harley Quinn

Finally it’s been revealed cause I thought Killer Croc ate Scarecrow and this Arkham Knight Scarecrow was some new Scarecrow

Hes fine thanks for asking.

Scare crow stepped up his game in Batman Arkham knight

Personally I think that Scarecrow is dead. I think he was took and eaten by Croc in the first game, and it isn't really him terrorizing Gotham in Arkham Knight. I think that someone else, possibly the Arkham Knight or whoever he/she is working for, is using Scarecrow's fear gas, and every time you see Scarecrow in the game, it's just a hallucination created by the fear gas My reasons for thinking this are that the Arkham games have a reputation for leading players to believe X only to reveal Y. Characters turn out to be someone other than who we think they are, and the person who ends up being the main villain usually turns out to be someone other than the person we thought was the main villain at the start of the game.

Bro the music and font makes it so creepy

My fav design of scarecrow

W vid u get a sub

You know I wonder where Scarecrow was during Batman Arkham Origins.

Nostalgia

How did Crane manage to make bigger mess than Joker ever did in the arkhamverse, I wonder :D

So was just his face damaged or did he receive any other injuries like was his whole body basically fully degloved or something else that would be pretty bad

Its impressive and lucky that he didnt loose his eyes with what Croc have done to him

Scarecrow learned something in the asylum. He learned that whatever man is under that mask is protected by Batman. So now he knows he has to make Batman fearful as well. Which is why he keeps telling Batman that he will strip away his mantle as a legend and a hero and turn him into a pathetic whimpering child like kinda like how he was in the alley. But beca of the joker toxin he ends up killing Bruce, so Bruce dies in his mind to save Batman. And now Batman takes his vengeance for killing that boy in the alley and replacing him with The Batman. Scarecrow wanted to enact vengeance on Batman and the soul underneath. Take away their hope, but he ended up giving Batman hope, this time Bruce saves Batman and every little boy out their in fear they will lose everything.

You know what else I think I know who that plastic surgeon was who further deformed Scarecrows face, Dr. Thomas Eliot aka Hush

5:20 why is this so funny 😂

i had no idea about the boat

Minor correction: Crane actually went to Thomas Elliott, A.K.A. Hush, A.K.A. The Identity Thief for the facial surgery and paid in the fear toxin, which can be seen in Hush's hideout. What Hush used the toxin for is admittedly a mystery, but it is worth noting.

He was mauled by killer croc

I personally thought they messed up scarecrow in knight I liked him alot better in asylum

Harley Quinn: No TRANSFUSED JOKER BLOOD business? That was the best part! And the worst part. The bworst. Deadshot: Sure missed a lot in Gotham while I was out of the game. Ain't sorry about it. Boomerang: Oi, if you ever heard a rumor about Scarecrow makin' me have an accident? NOT true. King Shark: There are so many villains in Gotham City! Much more than in Louisiana.

0:34 he calls him Bruce so he always knew he was batman?

He went from oh no scary croc pls dont hurt me to gotham will know fear

lmao and i thought i was really onto something when i found his mask lol
