FOIL

(W) James Robinson (A) Stephen Segovia (CA) John Paul Leon

Batman is hot on the trail of a murder suspect, but first he'll have to get past Two-Face.

Whatever it is, it's big enough to reunite Jim Gordon and former district attorney Harvey Dent, and that meeting alone is worth the cover price. Batman's newest partner...Two-Face? As Harvey Dent's persona asserts fragile control over the villain's psyche, the Dark Knight, Commissioner Gordon and their ally-turned-enemy-turned-ally must work together to stop Kobra's terrorist attack against Gotham City.
