Posted by Rich Johnston November 21, 2017
Harley Quinn is one of DC Comics’ most successful breakout characters in recent years. long before the Suicide Squad calm, she was the cosplayer's choice, with a variety of looks down the decades and a certain propensity to survive and prosper despite have no superpowers save for the ability to do whatever the hell she wanted and get away with it.
She currently appears in the twice-monthly Suicide Squad comic, the twice-monthly Harley Quinn comic and plenty of other spin-off one-shots, mini-series and specials. Oh and in this month’s Red Hood And The Outlaws #16.

My thoughts on this is that I really hope so. I get that she sells, so naturally DC has her everywhere. There's probably some Harley Quinn in your own butt crack - that's how swamped we are with her. I don't really mind that she's everywhere but I hate the personality she has in the solo comic because she's very up herself. So when we get that, along with characters (talking about her Gang of Harleys or literally anyone in her solo series, Hack from Suicide Squad, anyone in the Suicide Squad movie, and even characters from Josie and Freakin' Pussycats) that are just there so they can gush over how *awesome* Harley is and how *unique* and how *hot* she is and so much *better* in her new self... is really, really, really getting old and annoying.
