Harvey Dent flips a coin to decide between a moral and an immoral action, not two equally evil options.

You nailed my issues with this take on Harvey very neatly. What makes Dent such a fascinating character is his division. Take away any redeeming value and you lose Harvey--all you've got left is Two-Face. And then, for me at least, you lose the essence of the character.

Like you, I really enjoyed Dixon's writing, but yeah. He kind of failed in this way. Which is sad, because Robin: Year One really was excellent, and could have been even more so if Harvey had been written as the multi-faceted self he's capable of being.
