One of my favorite things about B:TAS Two-Face is whether or not to kill Poison Ivy is the only decision he doesn't need to flip his coin to make, only the method.

Part of me hopes that Havey does have DID to a point, and the scarred side is something of a long-ignored conscience. Mostly because I hope this version of Batman's story will go against the idea that mental illness makes you evil.

For what it's worth, I grew up hearing "schnook" a lot, and to me it always had the vibe of a petty huckster or scammer--someone who'd swindle you out of whatever you had but didn’t have any great ambitions. A schnook is definitely two-faced.

I used to think of Deadrich Bader as a one-trick-pony thanks to The Brave and the Bald, Office Space, until I saw his performances in Gargoyles, BoJack Horseman, Superman: Red Son! In fact, in Gargoyles he played a villain who eventually saw the error of his modus operandi through a wake-up call. Hopping to see some of that in Caped Crusader!

Since, according to informations, the show's Batman will be more darker than previous versions, it's most likely that Harvey will be the main villain in this first season, since his development could share similarities with Batman's character arc. While Bruce's development will probably involve he growing into a more balanced and heroic figure (basically arc he went through in Matt Reeves The Batman), Harvey, despite becoming a bit more empathetic, will still choose to act in the wrong way.

It also happened in Beware the Batman and Batman: Gotham by Gaslight.

Oh, yes, was expecting Firefly instead. Well, hope Firebug won't be as easily overlooked as the DCAU Catman. I actually never had hesitant qualms on Bader being Two-Face. However, back in the day, I myself actually doubted his Batman chops due to his comedy stuff... he would have made a lackluster Adam West at first glance, hehe. 1:50: Doing an Isengard is never worth it. 3:21: Yay, microphone effect is back. Does that mean "schnook" will be a word used for CC? 4:41: Helped with certain comics like The Batman Adventures issues 3 and 9 strengthening his cred before the fall. 5:00: Can't wait for this, because of non-DC stuff as well. 5:13: As a continuity nut who desperately is fuelled by binges, this is so worth it. Hiatuses have been a pain since stuff like Steven Universe (still a real good show pre-Future, but you know how it goes) did them repeatedly.

Well remember about the Bat Embargo that he never appeared in the 2004 Batman series where we got Ethan Bennet as not only the version of Clayface but also Two Face.

I really don't understand the hate against the Bat-Embargo. Gotta admit, storylines like JLU's "Double Date" felt more improved and original because of it. Heck, one could even argue that JLU's "To Another Shore" also got improved, because it replaced Aquaman's jarring isolationism (which would have been quite bitter, not unlike Captain Marvel leaving the League in "Clash") with Martian Manhunter's own alienation from humanity and his need to compensate.

I love "canon" Harvey so much, but I also love seeing more corrupt interpretations of him, so this is right up my alley. I'm thinking that he might have been a good man at first, but Gotham sucked him into its web of corruption.

I thought Bader was an against-the-grain casting back ten years ago in The Brave and the Bold, over-the-top and campy. His voice would be great as Harvey.

@@SerumLake That surprises me, and it’s a good take. But to me Bader was a contrast to Kevin Conroy, which I hated until I realized that BATB was a love letter to the Adam West and silver age campy, overconfident Batman, alive with gadgets and innuendo. Once I realized how over-the-top that show was, I was on board, especially with Bader’s voice.

I can’t wait for the show!! I love Harley Quinns design she looks amazing also I can’t wait to see how they handle the other villains in the show but with Bruce Timm directing, I think they are in good hands 😊

When Bruce Timm describes Harvey as a "schnook," I suspect that what he had in mind was the ending of Goodfellas.

You'd know what a "schnook" was if you'd watched your Looney Tunes.

2:53 I've seen Two-Face's new look, and it could use a waxier appearance if they're going for acid burns. Also, switching, which is the bad side, is a new thing. I don't know how I feel about it yet.

Have you considered talking about the Harley Quinn series interpretation of Two-Face? I really dug the idea of him being The Smiler from Transmetropolitan.

As much as I'm looking forward to another Timm-made Batman show, I do worry if it'll be as good as TAS if Paul Dini isn't also on-board with it 🤔

I dunno about this version being a sociopath. There are a lot of people who cannot for the life of them find empathy for others unless they have felt, experienced or endured something that gives them grounds to do so and for the experience to be humbling enough to grant humility. Many don't even try. At least, this is my lived experience as a person with a disability. No shortage of able-bodied people who just cannot be bothered to try and find even a little empathy. Until they too eventually find old age gives them experiences with disabilities. Not that it will cause a re-think in most, but more be filtered through the lens of selfishness and internalised ableism. Mostly thus, the description given sounds more like your stock standard privileged, selfish and quite self-interested person to me over a sociopath. Common and dime-a-dozen, everywhere and ever present. Who to have run ins with is a daily occurrence.
