☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 2018 hardcover collection from DC Comics celebrates 75 years of Harvey Dent, the tragic district attorney turned iconic villain Two-Face. It gathers key stories spanning from his Golden Age debut in the 1940s through modern eras, featuring his complex rivalry with Batman and his fractured relationship with allies like Commissioner Gordon and his wife Gilda. The volume includes classic tales by legendary creators that explore the character's duality, his coin-flipping obsession, and his enduring place in Gotham's rogues' gallery.
"The Crimes of Two-Face!" is a standout tribute in DC’s 75th-anniversary celebration, spotlighting the classic duality of Harvey Dent with a gripping tale written by David Vern Reed and illustrated by Dick Sprang, with inks by Charles Paris. When a failed attempt to stop a robbery triggers Harvey’s return to Two-Face, Batman and Robin must unravel his twisted pattern—tracking down those who wear masks in public—before he traps them at a ceremonial event with a deadly coin flip. The cover, a striking collaboration by Neal Adams, Dick Sprang, and Dick Giordano, captures the issue’s high-stakes tension in bold, dynamic lines.
In "The Crimes of Two-Face!", a shocking courtroom attack leaves District Attorney Harvey Kent scarred and transformed—his mind fractured by trauma and twisted into a criminal obsessed with duality. Now known as Two-Face, he uses a two-headed silver dollar to dictate his next moves, turning every heist into a gamble of fate. With Dr. Ekhart and Joe (the villain, death) entangled in the chaos, the line between justice and madness blurs.
In the aftermath of a failed escape, Two-Face returns to the criminal underworld—only to find his latest scheme nearly cost a life. As he grapples with the consequences, he seeks redemption through plastic surgery, reshaping both his face and his path.
When Harvey Dent agrees to play his former alter ego Two-Face for a charity event, the city braces for chaos—only for Batman to realize the criminal act isn't Dent’s, but a copycat’s. As the line between identity and performance blurs, a mysterious figure named Cassidy emerges, using the Two-Face persona to commit a pair of crimes that mirror the original’s duality. With Mr. Brown caught in the middle, the real danger lies not in the coin flip, but in who’s really pulling the strings.
When the reformed Harvey Dent is caught in an explosion, he reverts to Two-Face and launches a new crime spree targeting those who wear masks—literally or figuratively. Batman and Robin soon realize the pattern: Two-Face is hunting people whose lives are defined by duality, leading them to a ceremony honoring Bruce Wayne as honorary chief of a local tribe. Trapped and strapped to a giant coin above a bed of spikes, the Dynamic Duo must outwit a rigged flip—where Two-Face’s own coin, once flipped, lands face down by design—before it’s too late.
In "Two of a Kind," Jason, newly trained as Robin, joins Batman on his first patrol, eager to prove himself. When Two-Face strikes, Batman must navigate the growing tension as Jason begins to uncover the dark connection between the criminal and his father’s past—without knowing how deeply it will shake his resolve.
In "Half A Life [Conclusion]," the investigation reaches its climax as Batman guides Detective Josie Mac and Detective Nelson Crowe to the hidden location where Two-Face has been holding Detective Montoya. With the truth finally exposed and Two-Face apprehended, the aftermath unfolds for those caught in the web—especially Montoya, who must face the personal cost of being revealed, while Rachel Green, Danny Barkley, and Daria Hernandez navigate the shifting lines between justice, loyalty, and identity.
