DENT: Prologue (Part 1/??)
Jun. 17th, 2011 02:17 pmTitle: Dent: Prologue (1/??)
Fandom: Batman (general comics continuity)
Characters: Harvey Dent/Two-Face, Gilda Dent, Bruce Wayne, Jim Gordon, Vincent Moroni
Genres: General, Drama, Angst, Romance
Rating: PG-13
This story contains: Alcoholism, brief mentions of child abuse, graphic violence, swearing, character death, sexual content
Summary: Newly-elected D.A. Harvey Dent faces down crime and corruption in Gotham City. Will it cost him his sanity? Of course it will, you know that...but why? Presenting the tragic origins of Two-Face and his gradual descent into madness, from his earliest days as District Attorney to the acid and beyond.
Disclaimer: Don't own, don't sue.
A/N: My original intention was to tell the ultimate Harvey Dent origin, one which would draw on the best of comics canon. Five years and ten drafts later, it has evolved far beyond those goals, becoming something far more personal and original while still remaining faithful to the characters and stories that inspired me.
Several of you have read this already from the earlier version which I posted at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
thehefner. This version is not greatly changed, but as I plan to post the rest, it's best to start at the beginning. Enjoy!
( Half the time, I didn’t know what to make of my father... )
