[edit] Batman: The Animated Series
Harvey Dent, suffered from deep-seated psychological trauma resulting from years of repressing anger. As a child another personality was created inside Harvey, who would come to be called Big Bad Harv. Big Bad Harv would sometimes show himself whenever Harvey were to become incredibly angry, causing him to seek therapy. Mob boss Rupert Thorne gets a hold of his psychiatric file and plans to black mail him unless he were to do him favors. Big Bad Harv broke out, and he had a fight with Thorne and his men. Big Bad Harv chased Thorne into a chemical plant where one of Thorne's thugs tries to shoot him, but Batman bumps into the thug, making him shoot a box, its cords go flying into a bucket. It exploded, knocking him out. Batman turned him over and gasped in horror at what he sees. After the accident, he became a twisted vigilante known as "Two-Face" and soon began his own crusade to bring Thorne down, something the law deliberately failed to do. In subsequent episodes of the show, he became the supervillain he is in the comics. Prior to his disfigurement, he once dated Pamela Isley who would later become Poison Ivy and he was a childhood friend of Bruce Wayne.
[edit] The New Batman Adventures
In the final episode, Harvey's personality fragmented a second time, creating a third personality called "The Judge" (voiced by Malachi Throne), a violent court-themed vigilante that attempted to eliminate all of Gotham's denizens, even brutally attacking and defeating master criminals such as Penguin, Killer Croc, and The Riddler. Two-Face, looking to eradicate this new threat to him, had no idea that he himself was The Judge. At the end of the episode he was sent back to Arkham. This was his last appearance in the DCAU, though an alternate reality version of him made a cameo appearance during the Justice League episode "A Better World". This version of Two-Face was among the many supervillains lobotomized by that reality's Superman. He served as a janitor at Arkham Asylum.
