Harvey Dent (A.K.A Big Bad Harv A.K.A. Two-Face) is a former District Attorney of Gotham, but now a professional criminal after his career was wrecked by an unfortunate accident.

In Batman: The Animated Series, Harvey Dent starts off as Gotham City's dedicated and charismatic district attorney, as well as a close friend of Bruce Wayne. However, he struggles with a repressed, violent alter ego due to past trauma. This inner darkness is triggered when mob boss Rupert Thorne attempts to blackmail him, leading to an emotional breakdown. During a confrontation, an explosion horribly scars the left side of Harvey’s face, physically manifesting his duality. Now calling himself Two-Face, he embraces a coin-flipping obsession to make decisions, believing in the randomness of fate. Throughout the series, Batman tries to save his old friend, but Harvey remains trapped in his fractured psyche, torn between his former self and his criminal persona.
