3.5

It’s really sad for me to give this a just a 3.5 star rating when Scarecrow is my all-time favorite character. It’s a deep look at the characters but also shows major weaknesses of this time period in DC’s New 52. It felt maybe too fast for the story itself. Also, this is one of the weakest Scarecrow designs ever. I did appreciate the look into Batman’s more soft side but I felt the resolution was rushed.
