"The world is cruel...and the only morality in a cruel world is chance. Unbiased, unprejudiced; fair. Good heads: you live...bad heads: you die!"

When Bruce Wayne was starting out his career as Batman, in a Gotham City full of corruption and dirty cops, he had only a handful of allies in his war against crime: Alfred and Lucius Fox were among them, but the third man was then District Attorney, Harvey Dent. Harvey was a champion of the people in the eyes of the public, and a sworn enemy of Gotham's main crime lord, Carmine Falcone. Yet Harvey was also a childhood friend of Bruce Wayne, having known each other from when they both got lost at the Gotham City Natural History Museum. The two remained friends well into adulthood. However, things took a turn for the worse during an event known as "The Long Halloween." In the midst of a series of killings around various holidays, Harvey was present for the trial of Falcone's main rival, Salvatore Maroni, who made a deal with Dent to reveal all of Falcone's crimes. However, Maroni never intended to go through with the deal. Convinced that the District Attorney was behind the death of his father, Big Lou, Maroni attacked Dent in the midst of the trial by throwing a flask full of sulfuric acid onto the left side of his face, burning it down to the muscles on the left side of his body. The trauma combined with the loss of his job drove him completely insane, and he became a new foe in Batman's gallery of rogues: Two-Face!

For Two-Face's design, I loved what the Telltale series did with the bloodshot eye, so I incorporated that into the look. At first I was initially intending for Harvey to be partially bald on the left side as well, to show that the acid had burnt off the hair on that side, but I decided not to, since most portrayals of him show he had white hair on that side. For his backstory, I was hugely inspired by The Long Halloween, one of my favorite Batman stories. This version of Two-Face is also a major foe of Dick Grayson, the first Robin, after brutally beating him to a bloody pulp with a bat. However, as Nightwing, Dick later faced his demons with the aid of Starfire, and confronted Two-Face, defeating him in combat.
