New Clip From BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN, PART TWO Features Two-Face Meeting Grundy
A new clip has been released for DC’s upcoming animated film Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two. The clip features a heavily bandaged Harvey Dent/Two-Face meeting Grundy, which is someone that Harvey seems like he can relate to.
In my opinion, the is the best Batman story, and I hope that the creative team behind the films can pull off a decent adaptation. I haven’t watched the first film yet, but now that Part Two is out, I’ll watch them both back to back. Here’s the synopsis:
Inspired by the iconic mid-1990s DC story from Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two continues as the Holiday Killer is still at large and, with Bruce Wayne under the spell of the venomous Poison Ivy, Batman is nowhere to be found. Liberated by an unlikely ally, Bruce quickly uncovers the real culprit: Poison Ivy's employer Carmine Falcone. The Roman, his ranks decimated by Holiday and his business spinning out of control, has been forced to bring on less desirable partners - Gotham City's rogues' gallery.
In the meantime, Harvey Dent is confronting battles on two fronts: attempting to end the mob war while also dealing with a strained marriage. And, after an attack that leaves Harvey hideously disfigured, the District Attorney unleashes the duality of his psyche that he's strived his entire life to suppress. Now, as Two-Face, Dent decides to take the law into his own hands and deliver judgment to those who've wronged him, his family and all of Gotham. Ultimately, the Dark Knight must put together the tragic pieces that converged to create Two-Face, the Holiday Killer, Batman and Gotham City itself.
