From what I've heard, he was furious about the mask he had to wear (he'd been under the impression that False Face would be created via makeup) and refused to return or even be credited.

@@nicholasfarrell5981yeah exactly correct. The poor physical design/appearance made it impossible to bring the character back

Is he still alive

@@kevinkruse7992 Unfortunately he's not. I've just checked, he died in 2013 at 84. RIP Noah.

How could you tell?

He was the ghost in STAR TREK.

​@@kevinkruse7992 I think he passed away a few years ago.

A lot of people it appears as apparantly the reason he only had one appearance is they got complaints about how he scared children

@@TheDarkVampire666 his laugh alone freaked me out

Easily the one villian who befuddled the Duo at each step. Scared me as a kid, but now one of my favorite villians. (Green Hornet & Kato-worthy, IMO)

@@TheDarkVampire666 Huh I thought it was because his gimmick could only be utilised in one episode

It's uncanny valley...

Dude beside him looked offended that F.F. said that.

Watch "Batman: The Brave and the Bold", he has several background cameos, and in S2 E5: "The Golden Age Of Justice!" he actually gets out and stretches his legs a bit... for two minutes before the opening credit sequence. He's caught by Detective Chimp.

Maybe he has , as the Riddler or Joker !

The Batman '66 comic actually did bring him back, in the process revealing him to be Basil Karlo and turning him into Clayface.

According to the official Batman book, the character didn’t catch on as younger viewers found his masks frightening Malachi Throne himself said “Malachi Throne “Originally False-Face was to be done with make up, but due to production problems or decisions a plastic mask was used instead. It was a good character , but the problem was that the mask came out rather ugly and uncomical when photographed. The mask was bad, and it prevented the character from repeating because there was no response to the character. Although I felt my work was good , it would have been better had they stuck to the original concept- different facial disguises. Also the concept of False Face not being headlined was my idea. The question mark in the credits was the producers choice, but during a contractual argument I insisted that my name be withdrawn from the credits since there was going to be no face on it and no real acting. I was irate enough to say, Anyone could have played that part behind that kind of mask, so please withdraw my name from the credits. In the meantime a huge amount of publicity arose from that with regard to what had leaked out not with regard to me but with regard to whether Frank Sinatra was playing the part or Sammy Davis was playing the part, or Cary Grant, because everything was so celebrity conscious during the early days of Batman. So everybody in town was having a good time guessing who was playing False Face. Director Billy Graham cast me in it even though I was not on the same name level as some of the other people. That was like a coup, but they pulled the rug out from under me with that stupid mask.”

Unique villain.

If you look quickly, you would see malachi 's real face as one of the 2 guards in the armored car scene. He is the farthest of the 2.

No way, Frank Gorshin as the Riddler tops them all !

@michaelmohrle1773 keep in mind there were many ridder episodes so lots of excitement, false face only had one two part episodes. Just my take , false face episode was non stop.

In the more recent continuations of this Batman from 66 they unmasked False Face as having been Basil Karlo the whole time, aka usually Clayface. Which makes sense since False Face was supposed to be Clayface but the restrictions of 60s TV special effects in mind led them to adapt him as a slightly different criminal

@@JacobNintendoNerd99interestingly enough, False-Face was an actual Batman villain in the comics. So it works well to put him in the show without creating a new villain for the series.

I think there was a rational I read somewhere where the producers wanted the audience to keep guessing who it was so deliberately didn't reveal his face,even some of the credits simply had a question mark ? for who it was..at the time ❤ ..

Mine too. I think I've seen every show he ever appeared in on TV.

@@Rick-mx5kh Look Al, I'm not asking you to spy. Just asking you to steal.

By that freaky mask malarkey I was thrown.

A "Two Face" script was written by Harlan Ellison, but it went unshot.

@@allanbard6048 And they have cast Clint Eastwood for the role.

Interesting!!

The animated version is pretty cool. Voiced by Burt Ward and Adam West just before he died. Two Face is voiced by William Shatner. Adam West's last time playing Batman.

There was a story planned but they thought Two Face was to scary for the kids yet false face scared the shit out of me 😂

For me it's both cringey and funny at the same time

Brilliant! Quite an era of great 📺

The Scarecrow and Manbat scared the crap out of me on the Power records series.

Love the little wobble his head gives as he says that 😂

They look amazing on blu ray.

That's where you're wrong... the original Clayface, Basil Karlo, appeared in Detective Comics #40 (June 1940) as a B-list actor who began a life of crime using the identity of a villain that he had portrayed in a horror film. The Adam West Show could have used the Basil Karlo Origin story as a former actor turned criminal who went insane when he heard that a remake of the classic horror film he had starred in, would be shot.

Then it was the production crew's fault for making him too frightening.

I liked Mad Hatter, Joker and Mad Hatter.

Joker too

Maybe Shame as well

No, false face is a character of his owm

Two-Face was too creepy for 1966 TV. Kiddies would have freaked out.

False Face is a separate character from Two-Face, in fact a Two-Face episode would've happened with Clint Eastwood playing the villain, but it never made that far

​@@superplushtiman7ti075that would've been interesting to see.

@@nicholasfarrell5981they made 2 one-shots of it, as part of the Batman 66 comic run "The Lost Episode", was based on a script for the planned 2-parter "The Two-Way Crimes of Two-Face" which would’ve been a 2-parter as the script was for "The Two-Way Crimes of Two-Face Part 1" and "The Two-Way Crimes of Two-Face Part 2"

It was only 3 days, and you know it!

He invented burnt sienna crayons and also the underwire bra.

Yeah it was revealed in the comics that he was Clayface in disguise and he actually becomes Clayface too by jumping into a pool of radioactive protoplasym

And that's also Clayface's real name

Mother MacCree!

In the comics, Harvey Dent's real name was Mondern Falues,

According to the Batman 66' comics which is dubiously canon... yes.
