Harvey Dent, later known as Two-Face or the "Other Guy", was a main character and later an antagonist in the first season of Batman: Caped Crusader.[1] He served as the main antagonist of the episode "The Killer Inside Me" and as an antagonist-turned-anti-hero for the episode "Savage Night".
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Harvey was a long-time friend of Bruce Wayne and became an attorney. He served Gotham as District Attorney for over a decade before announcing his candidacy for Mayor of Gotham City.
Current Life[]
Desperate for funds, Harvey initially agreed to catering to crime lord Rupert Thorne's conditions but reneged on the deal when he charged a criminal rather than pardon him, thus Thorne had his right-hand Tony Zito disfigure him with acid.
Harvey engaged on a vigilante mission, murdering the criminals responsible for his injury and shot down others just employed by the gangster, and almost killed Thorne, but was prevented by Batman, which broke Harvey out of his violent rampage. Harvey ultimately sacrificed himself to save Barbara Gordon from corrupt cop Arnold Flass, with the shock allowing Batman to disarm the villainous detective.

Characteristics[]
Personality[]
Harvey Dent was an ambitious, career-driven young man. Though he genuinely wanted to change Gotham for the better, he was not above bending or even breaking the rules to achieve his goals. After his facial disfigurement, his paranoia and self-loathing began to overtake his mind.
After his acid attack, he develops a second personality, a murderous vengeful vigilante, who always uses violence when he attacks anyone.
Appearance[]
Harvey was rarely seen out of his impeccable tailored suits. Notably, after his attack, his once handsome face was horribly disfigured on his right side.
Powers and Abilities[]
Harvey is a normal human being, though he possesses excellent litigation skills as he served Gotham as DA for more than a decade.
Equipment[]
Harvey was fond of making wagers with people on a coin-flip but only using his trusty double-headed trick coin. He also uses a gun in fights and battles.
