History
No one knows False Face's true identity for it was covered behind an ugly plastic mask, he was a cunning master of disguise who often baffled the police and the citizens of Gotham City.

He first managed to steal the jeweled Mergenberg Crown and replace by a fake one and then planned to flood Gotham City with millions of dollars in couterfeit money so that no one could tell the differance between the real and the fake.

Sometimes he gave himself away with his disguises. One of these times was when he was disguised as Comissioner Gordon and had his hankerchief in his left hand while the real Comissioner always holds it in his right which Batman noticed.

He was captured by the Dynamic Duo and was never seen on the show again.
