Following that, they traveled to Wayne Manor and the Riddler destroyed the Batcave. After his coin landed on heads, Two-Face stole enough money to fund Nygma's company, and the two gained knowledge through the Box and discovered Batman's true identity at Nygma's party. Intrigued by Riddler's offer, Two-Face decided via coin flip whether he killed or allied with him Heads, he accepted his offer or Tails, he would kill him. Enraged at his lair being invaded, he wanted to kill the new comer right there and then, but the Riddler stated his case, saying that he would help him solve the mother of all riddles Who is Batman? in exchange for helping him steal production capital for his company. Two-Face was responsible for the origin of Robin because, when a family of acrobats known as the Flying Graysons tried to stop him, they were all killed by him apart from Dick, the youngest Grayson, who went on to join Batman as Robin after he stopped his bomb.Īt his hideout, Two-Face met Edward Nygma, who adopted the mantle of the Riddler, the master of puzzles and quizzes. The circus held a fundraiser that was attended by Gotham's elite, and Two-Face concluded that the odds were excellent that at least one of them knew The Dark Knight's identity if they weren't Batman himself-, and he threatened to blow the place up unless his enemy turned himself over (although the subsequent riot in the circus prevented Bruce Wayne from obeying his order). Two-Face traveled to the circus looking for Batman. The coin tells Two-Face to murder the Graysons Spice favored his 'dark', scarred side, while Sugar favored his 'good' side. However, Two-Face escaped before he crashed his helicopter into the Statue of Justice over Gotham Harbor.Īt his new hideout, which had decor split in half like his personality, Two-Face had two molls, Sugar and Spice, who worked for him. Batman pursued Two-Face by boarding his helicopter.

They took hostages and looked like they were going to get away when Batman intervened and stopped the robbery. Two-Face and his thugs robbed the Second Bank of Gotham. Two-Face escaped from his cell on the second anniversary of his arrest, and his escape was discovered by Dr. Dent was eventually arrested by Batman and committed to Arkham Asylum.
Using a double headed coin, one side scarred, to make decisions, he went on a crime spree. This damage made him develop a second personality that was psychotic and homicidal, who was dubbed "Two-Face". Batman had learned about the plot, but arrived too late to save him.Īccording to news reports, the acid burned far enough through Dent's head that part of his brain was damaged. Though able to protect the right side of his face in time, the acid splashed against the left side of Dent's face and horribly disfigured it. Unknown to anyone, Moroni managed to smuggle a hidden flask of acid into the court and threw it on Dent. During a trial, he questioned mob boss Sal Moroni in court. Once Gotham's District Attorney, Harvey Dent worked to arrest and convict Sal Moroni, a prominent mobster in the city.
