Two-Face

{{Disambig Two-Face is a criminal who has one half of his face horribly scarred, and the other stunningly handsome. He's completely obsessed with the number "2," duality, and fate. As such, all of the crimes that he commits revolve around the number "2," and he's psychologically unable to do anything else. He carries a double-headed coin around with him that has one of the heads scarred, and he flips the coin before he makes any decisions involving a question of law and illegal activities; even when it would senselessly inconvenience him, sometimes surrendering when he otherwise could've escaped. Tragically, before becoming Two-Face, he was "Harvey Dent," Gotham City's District Attorney, and one of the Batman's closest friends and allies. Batman considers Harvey Dent's descent into madness to be one of his own greatest failures. Two-Face was created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, first appearing in {{c|Detective Comics #66}}. (1942)

Trivia

 * In the alternate future setting of The Dark Knight Returns, Dent's face was returned to normal, but at the unforeseen cost of permanently destroying the good-hearted Harvey Dent personality, leaving the monstrous Two-Face in control forever.
 * In earlier incarnations of the character, the scarred left side of Harvey's face was colored green. Later interpretations of the character however shows his disfigurement as either blue or purple, presumably to simulate the physical appearance of actual burn victims.
 * Billy Dee Williams played Harvey Dent in Batman (Movie) so he could be Two-Face in a sequel. Batman Forever's director Joel Schumacher had to pay a fee to Williams so he could use Tommy Lee Jones as the villain in that movie.
 * Although too gruesome for the 1960s television show (Clint Eastwood was proposed to play him at one time, as a former news-anchor who became disfigured when a television exploded in his face) that popularized Batman and much of his rogues gallery. As a result, the producers created a substitute villain who proved so popular that he eventually became part of the Batman canon: Mr. Freeze.
