DC Comics (November, 1995)
“Two-Timer” WRITER: Paul Dini PENCILER: Ty Templeton INKER: Rick Burchett COLORIST: Linda Medley LETTERING: Richard Starkings & Comicraft ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Darren Vincenzo EDITOR: Scott Peterson
Harvey seems to finally be gaining control of his anger and “Two-Face”, which is happy news for his girlfriend Grace and for Bruce. However, the Joker decides to push him back over the edge, using Harley make it look like Grace and Bruce are seeing each other behind his back. Sadly, he is successful and Harvey Two-Face breaks out of Arkham to confront Grace.
What they got right: Leave it to one of the show writers to understand how the write the characters and create a situation that would work in the show. While I don’t recall Grace returning after Harvey’s fall into Two-Face it was nice to see her make a comeback and see that she was still hoping he’d come back to her. Not this way, but blame the Joker.
What they got wrong: I really don’t have any complaints. This would have made a good episode.
Recommendation: This is a good tie-in to the series and still some good Batman stories by themselves. Give this one a read.
