This image from "Two-Face part.1" threatens the presence of the classic villain an entire act and a half before he's shown at the very end. It both foreshadows his design and reveals the terrible dichotomy between Harvey Dent's two personalities. Posted by Donovan Grant
These two sequential images from "Vendetta", gorgeously animated by Spectrum Studios, illustrates the compound nature of the character in both the "bat" and the "man" in frightening detail. Posted by Donovan Grant
Poised at a dutch angle, this silhouetted shot of Batman from "The Man Who Killed Batman" evokes the image of him firing a gun. Though it is just a grapple gun, images like these kept the audience at a guess as to what Batman would be doing at any given moment. Posted by Donovan Grant

Episode 10: Two-Face Story By: Alan Burnett Teleplay By: Randy Rogel Directed By: Kevin Altieri Original Air Date: 09/25/92 After making appearances in two previous episodes (“On Leather Wings,” and “Pretty Poison”) Harvey Dent takes his tragic fall into darkness in the awesome two-part episode, “Two-Face.” Having Harvey Dent appear in two prior episodes was a great decision by the producers.

Written By: Jules Dennis, Richard Mueller and Sean Catherine Derek
Directed By: Boyd Kirkland
Original Air Date: 10/08/92
When I think of some of the more different or odd episodes of "Batman: The Animated Series," the episode that comes to mind the most for me is “The Forgotten.” It’s not the overall plot that makes it different, but rather it’s bunch of other things, like the setting of where the story takes place, the music, and the designs of some of…
