Two-Face developed an affection for Montoya. When she rejected him, he publicly outed her as a lesbian and attempted to frame her for murder. With his sanity seemingly restored, he attempted to live a better life. But not before shooting the villain Hush. Here, Harvey scarred his own face and resumed his criminal life. After parting ways with Batman, Two-Face attempted suicide by shooting himself in the head. Though the bullet missed his brain, his mental instability worsened.
The Harvey persona reached out to Batman, claiming there was a physical cure for his condition. The two then embarked on a mile journey back to Arkham Asylum.
He explained that the cure would actually destroy him and allow Two-Face to dominate. It is revealed that he killed Jason Todd's father, leading Robin to resist revenge, and turn him in for the court to decide his punishment in Batman Two-Face holds his own father hostage as revenge for his childhood abuse in one-shot Batman: Two-Face — Crime and Punishment.
He plans to kill him, but it's revealed that Dent has been supporting his father financially his entire life. Both Two-Face and Harvey Dent argue with each other over what the abuser's fate should be, and Harvey wins the debate As of Batman: Hush , Two-Face's appearance is fixed via plastic surgery and he is out of the life of villainy. Harvey Dent briefly becomes the temporary protector of Gotham City in Batman's absence, but he is driven mad with jealousy when Batman returns and goes insane once more, this time hallucinating Two-Face instead of physically becoming him.
Then, came, and so did the publication-wide DC reboot with the New 52 era. Forget that childhood abuse and instead get to know Erin and Shannon McKillen: the two ladies who wanted to kill Commissioner Gordon's family--and the two ladies who were clientele of attorney Harvey Dent. Batman becomes desperate to cure Two-Face by the current DC Rebirth era, but the character is still villainous.
In other media, Two-Face is just as active as he is in comic books. In this series, it is an explosion rather than an acid attack that scars him. Interestingly, that's the same change made to his origin story as the version of Two-Face fans got in director Chistopher Nolan's The Dark Knight , in which half of Harvey Dent's face is burnt to a crisp thanks to the Joker.
So should Two-Face be chosen as the villain for DC's next Batman film coming in , there will be plenty of backstories, re-writes, and re-imaginings from the character's year-old history to choose from.
