    there really was no way to make Two Face "campy"....he wouldn't have fit in with the other villain portrayals

      Well, I'm sure they could've come up with something, but I agree it wouldn't have been a true Two-Face

        The villains weren't as campy as the Dynamic Duo were. Actually some of the portrayals were a bit on the creepy side, see Riddler, Joker and Penguin.

          I always thought False Face was the TV show version of Two Face

            I kind of agree, he seems there by default. Butthere was acyually a Batman for called False-Face, I think.

            I think those FF episodes are just terrific--and he was in the B&B cartoon recently!

              False Face was an old golden age villain, he's in a Seven Soldiers of Victory story I have in an archive.

                somewhere I saw or read that the False Face character was
                their idea to replace two face because he was deemed too scary for the show. False face seemed stupid to me.

                I guess having a horribly difigured character wasn't funny enough.

                they did do a cheap *** version o killer moth on batgirl's demor reel

                  Yes, there had better be a Mister J in this DC retro Super Heroes collection sometime. A set of DC Heroes and Villains with no Mister J is like a Box of Cereal with no toy waiting at the bottom.

                  ....and I am talking the real Joker. No Heath Ledger crap with his face all scrapped up and looking like his makeup was done by someone who stepped off the short bus.
