A
comic book character, owned and published by
DC Comics. He is former
Gotham City district attorney Harvey Dent--and a current
enemy of
Batman. After a
criminal scarred one side of his
face with
acid, he became obsessed with
duality and the
number "
2". He began flipping a
two-headed
coin (one
side defaced) to make
moral decisions. If the "
good" side came up, he'd do the
right thing; if the "
bad" side came up, he'd do something
evil.
Two-Face is almost literally
split into two different people. One
half of his face is
young and
handsome, while the other half is
hideously
scarred. His
clothing follows the same pattern: one half of his suit is
fashionable and
expensive; the other half is
seedy and
threadbare.
I think Two-Face has always been my
favorite comic book
villain. His
psychosis makes a strange kind of sense, and he's a
brilliantly realized character. I like his sense of
style, too. He's the reason I'm constantly on the lookout for
two-headed coins and weird
bisected suits.
