SDCC Harley Black and White announced!





Batman Black and White refers both to a four-issue comic book limited series published in 1996 by DC Comics, and three collections of 8-page black-and-white Batman stories, comprising the limited series and backup features from the Batman: Gotham Knights comic.

In it, Harley Quinn makes three appearances..


"Case Study" - Written by Paul Dini, art by Alex Ross (New material)When the Joker is once again captured and sent to Arkham Asylum, a doctor laments that all of his work has not pierced the Clown Prince of Crime's insanity. Another doctor offers up a report written years ago, which suggests that the reason the Joker cannot be cured is because he is not insane. The report outlines the Joker's history before his accident, and suggests that his "revenge" against Gotham for ruining him is to commit perfectly sane crimes under the guise of madness. The doctors are convinced, but Harleen Quinzel is then escorted past, commenting that she was the one who wrote the report prior to her personal sessions with the Joker. The doctors wearily put the report away, realizing that though it is plausible, its origin renders it worthless - it is just another one of the Joker's sadistic pranks, left where it would someday be found, examined, and ultimately dismissed; a spot of hope crushed just as it shines brightest.


"The Bet" - Written by Paul Dini, art by Ronnie Del Carmen (Originally published in Gotham Knights #14)Incarcerated in adjoining cells at Arkham Asylum, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn bet over which can get a kiss from every man in the asylum. As her pheromones spread through the building, it looks like Ivy will win the bet. However, when the Joker finally appears on the scene, he murmurs about how much he loves Harley; Ivy has lost the bet as Joker thought he was kissing someone else. Later, Harley pays off The Ventriloquist, the real power behind Joker's sweet nothings.


"Punchline" - Written by Doug Alexander, art by Rob Haynes (Originally published in Gotham Knights #30)Told silently, Harley Quinn attempts to trick another criminal out of their ill-gotten gains by inspiring the fear of Batman in them. Her attempts to mimic the Caped Crusader, however, cannot match up to the man himself.
