Two Face Gets His Own Miniseries As Part Of DC’s ‘All In’
by Olly MacNamee
DC Comics has announced a new miniseries featuring Batman Rogue, Two-Face, by Christian Ward and Fábio Veras, with colours by Ivan Plascencia and lettering by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. Part of DC’s ‘All In’ initiative, this new series offers will portray Harvey as a “Perry Mason-like… attorney-at-law” with the bad Harvey wanting full control of his/their mind!
As part of the accompanying statement, Ward said:
“After falling in love with writing the beautiful, complicate, Harvey in Batman: City of Madness,” said Ward, “I couldn’t be more excited to be, or prouder, to be writing Two-Face’s very first solo series! Two-Face is without any hesitation not just my favourite Batman villain but my favourite character in all of Gotham, and I’m thrilled to be taking him, together with superstar artist in the making Fábio Veras and the legends that are colourist Ivan Plascencia and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, to some wild places you might not be expecting. The first of which takes Harvey Dent back to the courtroom.
“In our series, Harvey is trying to use his criminology skills to resolve the conflicts of Gotham’s weird and dangerous criminal underground…all the while he has his eye on a return to civilized society and perhaps reconciling with his old friend, Bruce Wayne,” said Ward. “So all rise, court is in session, Harvey has tossed his coin and judgment is about to land!”
“After years of internal conflict, both halves of Harvey Dent have reached an uneasy peace. In DC’s new Two-Face series, Harvey uses his skills as an attorney to resolve the conflicts of Gotham’s weirdest and most dangerous criminals, starting with Victor Zsasz. When Zsasz is accused of murdering a fellow member of Gotham’s underworld contingent, who better to prove a criminal’s innocence than someone who’s been on both sides of the law?”
Two-Face#1, written by Christian Ward, art by Fábio Veras, will be out on December 4th with a main cover by Baldemar Rivas and variant covers by Ward, Chris Samnee, and Leonardo Romero.
