Description "No. No! You broke my concentration. It won't work. Don't you see? It's too hard. It's like tensing a muscle. I can't keep it up for long! MY CAREER, MY LIFE, IT IS GONE! AND I CAN NEVER GET IT BACK! I'M NOT AN ACTOR ANYMORE! I'm not even a... man!"

What about the other Clayfaces? Did they become "part" of him? There's also a fifth Clayface: the Cassius Payne, Preston Payne and Sondra Fuller's son.

Bazel Karlo was actually the actor.

This is what is called a composite character that is part of a continuity separate from the comics' canon. Also Matt Hagen was an actor in Batman the Animated Series and many other adaptations.

Like that you referenced the other versions of Clayface including Ethan Bennet.He is my favorite version of Clayface.

I like how you used the other Clayfaces. It seems like he decided to kill them so he can be the ONLY Clayface.

I really liked Bennet, he was honestly my favorite version of clayface

who knows, maybe Bennet might influence Matt to be a better person

I had an idea, in my own DC-Verse head-canon that Matt Hagen and Basil Karlo are the same person, with Karlo being a stage name, and I thought that maybe, some of the other "Clayfaces", could be disguises Hagen takes on, to hide himself from Batman and the Authorities, and as a challenge for himself as an actor, to take on any identity, male or female, actually get into their minds, as the perfect, method actor.

If you haven't, be sure to check out Clayface's Oracle File. It's a good one, if I do say so myself.

Could he perform plays for the Asylum patients? I think he'd like that.

sonicspeedster92 In reply to JasonRyder [2017-07-26 01:53:20 +0000 UTC]

That might help him see to use his powers for good. Or at the very least, get his pro acting career back.

Spider-Bat700 [2016-01-22 20:04:37 +0000 UTC]

I must say I really like what you did with this one. Besides referencing all of the other Clayfaces from the comics and elsewhere, I also like how you had all of the villains who used to be in the movie business as a therapy group together. Any chance of Paul Sloane? (Second Two-Face, former actor).

Roysovitch In reply to ImdaBatman [2016-01-20 03:58:42 +0000 UTC]

I am going to go with a lesser known take on his origins story... but one inspired from another source.

Wow, I really like that idea  His victim's personality being absorbed into his mentality, that would be a real intresting story.

ImdaBatman [2015-12-23 05:18:07 +0000 UTC]

nice nod to all the other Clayfaces

you'd think DC would've brought Hagen back in the comics by now, since he's so popular in cartoons, but he's still dead since the 80's

Note: At the time of his transformation, patient had an upcoming role as a character called "Hellboy".  Patient once stated during session "if nothing else, at least I wouldn't have needed 8 hours of makeup!"

Yeah... I was not a fan of how there were like 12 different Clayfaces.

I mentioned 7 in this profile alone. I left out Cassius "Clay" Payne, all the Clay-Things, and the Clayface of Japan.

Oh, poor Detective Bennet. 
It was like watching the Joker try to get Commissioner Gordon to crack.

Except Joker wasn't even trying to make Bennet insane, just angry and compliant. 
And then Bennet had his entire life go down the drain. Liteerally.
