In "The Atom Cave Raiders!", Paul Sloane takes on the role of Harvey Dent for a TV show—only to be permanently scarred when a jealous prop man swaps fake acid for the real thing. Now a twisted mirror of Two-Face, Sloane's criminal spree is dictated by the flip of a silver dollar, turning every heist into a deadly gamble. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Bob Kane with art by Lew Sayre Schwartz, inks by Charles Paris, and lettering by Ira Schnapp, this 1951 classic features a cover by Win Mortimer that captures the eerie tension of a man caught between fate and madness.
