Batman: Caped Crusader Makes Two-Face Worse Before His Villain Origin Story

Caped Crusader’siteration of Harvey Dent already lacks a defined moral orbit before he is disfigured . For much of the show ’s first season , Dent is mostly apathetic to unfeigned justice , being motivated almost exclusively by his mayoral run . Whatever decisiveness supply Dent with the good oculus for said military campaign is what he chooses , butthe botched assassination endeavour that give him disfigured is what leads him to lead off call into question the morality of his actions .

Why Batman: Caped Crusader Flips Two-Face’s Villain Origin Story

As Two - grimace , Dent murder many of Rupert Thorne ’s hatchet man and has violent outbursts , buthis “ good side ” thinks about the deep - seated putrescence in Gotham City and regrets it . This , of course , is after Dent ’s involvement in said corruption at long last take in up with him . Dent ’s self-examination becomes even firm after his stop in Arkham Asylum .

Two - Face ’s disfigurement is notably on the left side of his case in Caped Crusader , while nearly all looping have his scarring on the ripe side .

By the meter ofBatman : Caped Crusaderseason 1 ’s ending , Two - Face ’s declination top him to sacrifice himself to save Barbara Gordon , end his write up on a expansive – albeit tragic – promissory note . WhileCaped Crusaderwill never have Two - cheek become the pitiless work party drawing card he is known for being in the comic and many adaptations , its variation of Harvey Dent goes in an entirely dissimilar way while remaining arguably just as substantial . Batman : Caped Crusaderthus presents a distinctive and fascinating take on Two - Face , make a character who could perhaps be describedmore as an anti - villain than a true supervillain .
