Batman faces Two-Face -- formerly Bruce Wayne's friend, District Attorney Harvey Dent -- in stories from the 1940s to today. Once, he was Gotham City's crusading District Attorney Harvey Dent. But when a criminal threw acid in his face, disfiguring his left side, Dent lost his grip on sanity and became the villain known as Two-Face.
