Quote1 Fear is primal. Raw. Blood pressure increases. Veins in your skin contract. Your immune system shuts down. Even if you attempt to steel against fear, ... it is undeniable. Fear makes us human.

If you know me at all, you know me as ... the Scarecrow! Quote2

--Jonathan Crane (Prime Earth)

--Jonathan Crane (Prime Earth)

--Jonathan Crane (Prime Earth)

Quote1 This thing? This conspiracy that started with a train and has snaked its way through ever aspect of your life? It's too big for you to understand. You can't see the shape of it. It's so vast and complex that even the great detective can't solve this riddle. Quote2
