Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMany fans and critics have praised the episode for its dark tone. Bruce Timm and Paul Dini were reportedly so pleased with the episode that they preferred to have it stand alone, and so did not bring Clayface back as a character for a very long time. Similarly, Heart of Ice (1992) stood alone as the only episode featuring Mr. Freeze for a full season, until Deep Freeze (1994).
- GoofsGerms, one of Roland Daggett's lackeys, is always very careful to grab door handles with a cloth, to ensure he doesn't leave fingerprints. But after he, Bell, and Daggett walk down the hall, past the vats of the face cream, Germs pushes a door open with the cloth, then holds it open with his bare, uncovered hand- he would leave a heat hand print.
- Quotes
Teddy Lupus: You can't go on like this, Matt. You hurt all the time now.
Matt Hagen: You're just my stand in, Lupus. Nobody promoted you to nursemaid.
Teddy Lupus: That stuff makes your face like putty, Matt. It can't be good for you.
Matt Hagen: It probably ain't good for me, but unless I only want to do horror pictures, it ain't bad for me either.

Featured review
Feat of misfortune
'Feat of Clay' is a great example of a Batman villain born out of some unfortunate soul's personal demons. Here, it's an actor relying on cosmetics to cover up his physical disfigurement. That alone is kinda sad, but with Roland Daggett as the snake who's lording that miracle cream over him, it's downright miserable. What's kinda funny about this is that there's almost always a tailored gangster or corporate sleaze behind these tragic villainous turns - Daggett, Thorne, Boyle - nothing too deep there, just an observation, I guess.
Rob Perlman makes for a great Clayface and his descent is one of the more horrifying. Now that I think about it, this is a rather theatrical episode.
7/10
