What if Scarecrow was still insane but was willing to clean up Gotham. Would you read it if it was a comic?
How would that work? You commit a crime and he justs gases you?

I assume he catches someone robbing the bank, gasses/injects them with toxin, then the affects of the toxin completely neutralizes the criminal temporarily putting them in a fear trance.

Boom, The Cell, but with Scarecrow.

This is almost literally the ending of Arkham Knight

batman is only scary cos he's a guy in a dark alleyway that's gonna kick your ass
the whole supernatural angle doesn't work anymore and he doesn't even look like bat/bat creature.

SANDMAN 2: SCARECROW BOOGALOO

Sure, why not
I just want a Yellow Lantern superhero.
Not Sinestro!Scarecrow, just a Yellow Lantern that was a normal good-guy superhero, except he's in the Sinestro corp. Is this too much to ask?

Maybe not that simple. I imagine he'd psychoanalyze big name criminals/super-villains and mind fuck the shit out of them as penance for their sins (keeping in mind; Crane was bullied himself pretty fucking badly. It'd make sense that similar bullies who managed to make it big might trigger him - in the literal PTSD sense of the word - like a hysterically violent, shell shocked vet who cannot receive closure without violent retribution)
Whether or not he'd "scare them straight", traumatize them to the point where they'd be emotionally crippled and too receptive to paranoia/empathy to continue their misdeeds, or die from an incidental heart attack, it probably wouldn't matter. I doubt he'd care about anything much besides their reactions for research data, just as long as his methods are effective and there aren't any outliers like The Joker undermining his efforts.

So, you just want Sinestro?
