Dick Giordano & Tom Smith - The Scarecrow tries to scare a Robin

I've felt there was something sort of lacking from this image, which I must make quite clear is no reflection on Dick Giordano's ever-stellar pencils, which are still streets ahead of many of his apparent successors. Just a certain ambience was missing



So I thought I'd give colour a try, and the absurdly talented Tom Smith obliged. I'm very pleased with the result, which add a depth of atmosphere the pencils couldn't quite convey, and enhancing the Scarecrow's creepiness.
