As a young child, Jonathan Crane was subjected to sick and twisted experiments with fear conducted by his own father. Emotionally scarred and mentally unstable from the ordeal, Crane spent his childhood living in fear until he made an important realisation!’ If he could control fear, it would never control him again. Over time, this interest in fear became an obsession. With a doctorate in psychology and specialising in phobias, Jonathan began experimenting on others, exposing them to a hallucinogenic fear toxin he had developed that induced their worst nightmares. Although Batman has developed a number of remedies to counteract these toxins, Crane is constantly improving his formula and creating more potent and deadly versions.

Harvey Dent™ was a prominent and well-educated district attorney who fought valiantly to uphold the law and make the city a better place. In any other city, it would have worked. Not in Gotham™, a place where greed and corruption stretch from the depths of Crime Alley™ to the glittering heights of the mayor’s office. Dent’s path into Gotham’s madness came quickly when a criminal threw acid in his face, leaving half of it horribly scarred. He sought refuge in Gotham’s underworld, and the name Harvey Dent and all the good it stood for was lost… and Two-Face™ rose from the darkness.
