Talking in the League Of Comic Geeks Absolute Batman AMA with Scott Snyder and Nick Dragotta, Scott Snyder let us know a little of what is coming in Absolute Batman with Scarecrow and Poison Ivy…
"Scarecrow is something VERY different than the other villains we've seen so far. Ivy is coming up again very soon and you'll see that she has extremely powerful abilities. While she isn't exactly a monster like Mr. Freeze or Joker where she'd be strictly terrifying, she's also kind of wondrous and dazzling while not strictly being human. Scarecrow is human. He is a man obsessed with the power of fear. He has all of the gases and the things from history, a full kind of museum of fear that he loves to keep, but he's very modern. He's someone who uses fear to bring down government, to topple rulers. He's like a hired gun or a shadow that moves behind the scenes. I did some reading on the history of scarecrows, and some of the originals in ancient times contain nets that would catch birds so they could be killed, not just scare them away, but genuinely scare them to death. This Scarecrow is very dark in that way, but, he's a man rather than a monster."
And Nick Dragotta was asked, "Any chance that Bruce will start teaming up with a Boy Wonder in the future?" and replied "
Next arc…" Ah, but which one?
