I want to use two scarecrow images. One obviously is the Scarecrow but what could I possibly call the other ?
And no Worzel Gummage is not an option.
I just cannot think of or find another word for a Scarecrow.
Ideas ?

Oh come on, like that wouldn't end more fights peacefully than not. I know that most Supers wear costumes that show off their 'assets' but do you really think their going to keep fighting when their suddenly in the altogether?
And in some cases it can be very useful (as Gypsymoth/Skien) showed agaisnt the Crimson Cowl (all of whose powers were in her clothing).
And if you melted say, Batman's, clothing his utility belt would go too.
Then there's the Secret Identity problem, a mask is a piece of clothing.
Really I can see some very convenient ways of using the 'instant undress' power...

Jackstraw. A word.
Straw Jack. Not a word but might work.
Tatterdemalion: I think he dissolved money, too, and used a weighted muffler (I am not making this up) as an entangling weapon. Oh yeah, and he smelled so bad it could actually make people close to him sick. At least he had a tight theme!
