The following contains major spoilers for Two-Face #3, on sale now from DC Comics.
Harvey Dent is taking on one of Batman: The Animated Series‘ most tragic villains.
Two-Face #3 finds the titular villain and his partner Lake Cantwell hot on the hunt for the missing Scarface. As it turns out, it isn’t any overt mob business that has swept up the Ventriloquist’s infamous dummy, but rather another pint-sized horror. Specifically, one Mary Louise Dahl, better known as Baby Doll, who is more than willing to kill if it means getting the chance to spend her life alongside a like-minded, and similarly sized romantic interest.

Created by the legendary Paul Dini for the 1994 episode of Batman: The Animated Series entitled “Baby-Doll,” the titular villain was born Mary Dahl. From a young age, Mary thrilled audiences everywhere with her family-friendly antics on the small and silver screen. As a result of her Hypoplasia, Dahl never physically developed beyond that of a small child, leading her to be looked down upon and derided by her fellow cast members. Eventually, she went on a crime-spree in which she abducted her old TV family members in an attempt to relive her glory days.
Scarface and the Ventriloquist he is synonymous with first appeared in 1988’s Detective Comics #583 by John Wagner, Alan Grant, and Norm Breyfogle. Though Scarface seems to be little more than a wooden dummy, numerous instances of him acting on his own have implied that he is anything but an ordinary doll. In the years since his debut, Scarface has had a host of different Ventriloquists pulling his proverbial strings, with the first of these being Arnold Wesker, who set many of the precedents for more modern iterations of the character.

Fan-favorite Legion of Super-Heroes and Action Comics editor KC Carlson tragically passes away at the age of 68.
While Two-Face has historically played the role of an outright villain, he has taken a surprising turn in recent months by trying to get back to his roots as an attorney. To that end, Two-Face has taken up a part-time residence in the White Church. Overseen by some of the most brutal if level-headed costumed criminals to call Gotham City their home, the White Church serves as the underworld’s very own justice system, replete with a courtroom in which those accused of slights against their fellow criminals can be held to account by their peers.
