Batman attacks Scarface and Ventriloquist during dinner, during the skirmish Scarface's head comes off his body. The door men confessed that they were working for Scarface and where his hideout was. Fever was sold to kids through a metal door until Batman set a trap by placing a small bomb on the door. He had a hideout called the Ventriloquist Club, similar to Penguin's Iceberg Lounge as it had the public façade of a restaurant. Scarface was first shown in the two-part story that featured in Detective Comics #583 & 584 in which he was responsible for the sale of a highly addictive drug named "Fever" to children. The next day, Wesker & the dummy adopted new identities they became Scarface and the Ventriloquist. Continuing to listen to the dummy, Wesker managed to escape Blackgate, killing several guards on the way. Despite Donnegan's death the dummy could still talk and told Wesker to hang the body with a noose he made to make it look like a suicide. Goaded by the dummy, Wesker managed to defeat Donnegan and was spurred on to hang him instead (disguising the brawl as a suicide). The makesshift weapon hit the dummy instead creating the 'Scar'. However, their conversation woke Donnegan who attacked Wesker with a corkscrew. Donnegan was fast asleep when it spoke to Wesker, telling him to escape through Donnegan's tunnel. Wesker planned to hang himself in his cell, but was stopped by the dummy. Donnegan's new cellmate Arnold Wesker held a deep fascination in the Puppet, but was beaten severely every time he went near it, or even looked at it. Donnegan entered the Prison Talent Show with the dummy, which he called "Woody" (even though Scarface "Hated" that name) and "accidentally" mentioned his escape plan during his act, and did not plan to go through with it afterward. Donnegan carved Scarface out of what remained of the Gallows Tree. Scarface's first owner was a man named Donnegan who was an inmate in Blackgate Penitentiary. Unfortunately, Riddler came no closer to finding Scarelli's vault like so many others before him.Īs for Scarelli's spirit, it lingered in the hallowed bark of the Gallows Tree until it was struck down by lightening. Riddler tracked down all of Scarelli's former holdings in real estate and orchestrated the Riddle Factory game show as a distraction while his men searched each area for the vault. It wasn't until later that the Riddler heard about Scarelli's fabled fortune and took it upon himself to find Scarelli's secret vault. Scarelli's remaining lieutenants had heard a rumor that Scarelli had hid his entire fortune somewhere in Gotham but he never passed on the location of his secret safe. Scarelli was hung on the Gallows Tree at Blackgate Penitentiary. Scarelli was eventually convicted for his crimes and sentenced to death. Don Scarelli ruled Gotham's crminal underworld until the Falcones came into power. The origin of Scarface (and the first Ventriloquist) was revealed many years after their first appearance.
