Powers and Abilities: A criminal mastermind who obsesses over duality in his crimes. He is an average fighter, but vicious and cruel, nonetheless.
History: Harvey Dent was considered the Golden Boy of Gotham's District Attorney's office. Nicknamed Apollo, because of his extreme good looks, he was a young man who was on the fast track to becoming the next D.A.
Determined to rid Gotham of organized crime; he joined forces with the newly appointed Commissioner Gordon and the city's unofficial protector, Batman.
After bringing down crime lord Boss Maroni, Harvey discovered that his own wife, Gilda, was actually the daughter of said Mafioso leader, when she tried to kill him with acid. She burned only one side of his face, but, in turn, was murdered by his hands.
Having fought secretly with a dual personality for most of his life (which began as a child due to his father's mental and physical abuse), Harvey finally snapped and began calling himself Two-Face.
Deciding that life was better on the other side of the fence, Two-Face began his life of crime and eventually teamed with the mob boss Black Mask, to take over Gotham. He was eventually stopped by Batman and James Gordon and locked away in Arkham; where he now sits, plotting his escape.
