8 Worst Things Two-Face Has Ever Done

7. He Murdered Jason Todd's Father

Jason Todd might be everyone's least favourite Robin (come on, he even dyed his hair to look like Dick Grayson), but that doesn't take away from the kid's tragic origin, which DC managed to get right on the second go.

In pre-Crisis continuity, Todd's parents are acrobats who are murdered by Killer Croc. Understanding that that particular origin may have been just a smidge derivative, DC opted to use a completely different one after the reboot happened, reimagining Todd as a headstrong street-kid who Batman first encountered trying to steel the wheels off the Batmobile.

Post-1986, Todd's parents were never acrobats either. Instead, his mother was an addict who was presumed dead, while his father worked as hired muscle for Two-Face.

In the years following Todd's assumption of the Robin identity, it is revealed that his father Willis had been killed by his employer, and Batman - deciding that Jason shouldn't be in the business of revenge - kept it a secret for years.
