A Message from Dr. Harleen Quinzel
September 7th, 2013 by SusieIt is no secret that I love the character Harley Quinn originally from Batman: the Animated Series. (I’m seriously considering cosplaying as her at my next convention). It’s also no secret that I’m not always happy with the direction DC has taken with her since incorporating her into the comics continuity.
I was floored by this latest controversy involving the character. Read it for yourself.
DC talent contest asks for drawings of naked Harley Quinn committing suicide.
However rather than me going into another lengthy rant, I thought I’d give Harley the floor for a rebuttal.
Thanks, Harls, that about sums it up.
Actually no it doesn’t, there is a lot more that is wrong and offensive about this mess. I’m just not optimistic enough that any intelligent argument against this nonsense will get through to the DC brass, who somehow thought this was a good idea in the first place, to waste the energy.

Harley Quinn started off as a good idea for a character but has regressed into typical comic T&A.

Well put. Hard to understand how DC thought this was a good idea in the first place.
