Synopsis:
Batman and Robin patrol the city hoping to find Two-Face. During their second encounter with him, Batman deduces that this Two-Face is not the right-handed Harvey Dent, but instead is left-handed Paul Sloane, who once believed he was the real Two-Face. Batman and the police set a trap for Sloane at a railyard. The real Two-Face shows up also, but Sloane shoots them both with poisoned darts. Batman, Robin, and Two-Face are then all tied up inside a railcar that is about to explode.
