In "The Man Who Led a Double Life!", Batman pursues the newly reformed Two-Face, only to see him slip back into his criminal ways—until a betrayal from within his own ranks throws everything into chaos. Written by Bill Finger and brought to life by Bob Kane’s iconic art, with inks by Jerry Robinson and George Roussos, this 1942 classic features a cover by Jerry Robinson that captures the tension perfectly.
