If Two-Face Remained "Good" or was Genderbent (or both)
Inspired by this odd instance of canon DC Elseworlds:
The new Earth-3 features a heroic female counterpart to Two-Face: Evelyn Dent - "Three-Face" - the mother of Duela Dent. Unlike Two-Face, Evelyn has three personalities and she is not scarred, although she has a cybernetic left arm, after Superwoman mutilates her. Her original affiliation is to the heroic Riddler Family.
I'm just curious about:
1) What people think of this character, if you know her. What you like/dislike/what would you change, etc.
2) What you think of a moral reverse of Harvey Two-Face, where he remained 'good,' or close to it, and was a straight up vigilante (but keeps his original gender). Or, full reverse with Harvey being a criminal from the start, and then turning 'good'--opposite path of moral development.
3) If Two-Face were female, how would that affect the character (whatever moral alignment). I.e. Bigger Daddy Issues? Work harder to be Gotham's youngest D.A.? Even succeed in becoming D.A.? Het. or in love with Gilda/Grace (or is she genderbent too?) The subtext between Harvey and Bruce becomes more text. Joker would've dressed in a doctor's uniform rather than a nurse's in TDK? And etc. Would it affect the character at all?
4) Forget the strike out. OF COURSE, how would this affect the Harvey/Bruce ship, if at all.
4a) Within E3, does the idea of Evelyn Three-Face/Owlman (Evil!Batman) intrigue you? Do you suppose they have a history together as well, platonic or UST? (What little Earth-3 stories are out, not much is said on Three-Face vs. Owlman, so it's still a bit of a mystery.)
ETA & P.S. funhouseofevil is a comm. for Earth-3 and other DC moral reverses, canon or otherwise. Check out the tags, look around, and some interesting stuff/fic on Two-Face's genderbent counterpart can be found.
