Something does seem off with TwoFace's hand hold the knife, though (as pointed out already) -- I think it's the thumb placement. If I hold something , i've got the back of my hand, main knuckles, first phalanx and the thumb on top of the second phalanx, with the third folding under into my palm. •• You are describing making a fist, not holding something as thick as the handle of Two-Face's knife. Try just grabbing two fingers of your opposite hand, and see if you can get your thumb to curl around as you describe.

There is soooo much going on!! How do you come up with these scenes? For me, the star of this one is the Joker.....that face is perfect!! And the weaponry....from Penguins umbrella to Two Face's double sword...to that magnificent Joker gun!!!

Looking at the larger image, I'm loving that crusty boot Two-Face has got on his bad side.

The right hand look fine to me and I love the double blade as it's poetic to who Harvey is.
Two-Face has always been my favorite Batman villain, so you can't imagine how happy I am with this piece. I need to restrain myself, as I already want another commission.

Two-Face has always been my favorite Batman villain…•• Mine two, er, too. This despite being able to recall only a couple of his tales from my youth.

Really cool. The Batman-Penguin part is brilliant.

JB,
Am I misremembering or were you originally going to do a Two-Face story for the NO MAN'S LAND storyline in Batman back in the 90s?

If it was an issue of Two-Face playing chess with himself, I would have bought it if you were to have drawn it.

Seeing this really makes me wish JB had a run on BATMAN, DETECTIVE or just a chance to do a stand-alone miniseries or something!!! The artwork/layout is just too sweet of a piece - congrats to the owner!!!

Another great Byrne Batman commission deserving of another look! This would be a piece you could stare at for hours and constantly find something cool. The bullet holes in the cape and the corresponding puffs around the barrel of Penguin’s umbrella gun is a wonderful touch.
JB’s the best!
