Two-Face
Two-Face is the most formally elegant villain in Gotham because the gimmick and the tragedy are the same thing. Harvey Dent was the district attorney — Batman's ally, the man doing it the legal way — and after his face is destroyed he settles every decision with a coin, which is not madness so much as an absolute refusal to be responsible for outcomes any more.

Who is Two-Face?
Two-Face is the most formally elegant villain in Gotham because the gimmick and the tragedy are the same thing. Harvey Dent was the district attorney — Batman's ally, the man doing it the legal way — and after his face is destroyed he settles every decision with a coin, which is not madness so much as an absolute refusal to be responsible for outcomes any more. That is a considerably more interesting proposition than most costumed obsessions, and it is why the character resists being played as merely deranged. The design is a straightforward externalisation: one half untouched, one half ruined, split precisely down the middle. Aaron Eckhart's version compressed the arc into a single film, which is the most-cited criticism of an otherwise well-regarded picture.

Why Two-Face endures
Gotham's most formally elegant villain, where the visual gimmick and the moral premise are the same idea — a man who has stopped being willing to decide anything.
What Two-Face looks like on a shirt
Signature motif: A face and suit split vertically down the middle; a scarred silver dollar
The vertical split is the design and it is a gift for apparel — a hard centre line dividing two treatments, which works as a portrait, a coin or an abstract colour block. Very few characters support a split-panel layout this naturally.
