Dr. Harleen Quinzel, AKA Harley Quinn, is the best super villain in my book, and I do think that I am not alone in thinking that. Who else can get away with the “Fluffy Slipper Attack“? As much as one may dislike fluffy slippers, that scene from Injustice: Gods Among Us (Year 2) #13 would make one want to get a pair!
As with most comic book characters, though, that version of Harley is not the only one we’ve fallen in love with. From her beginnings as a psychiatrist in Arkham Asylum to what she is today, Harley has undergone more than her fair share of changes in looks – costume, makeup, and what have you. The awesome thing is that one thing remains constant: she is crazy funny no matter what. And I do believe there is some good inside her. (Don’t we all?)
With the Suicide Squad trailer (which I have been watching at least once a day in the past couple of days) being released, it’s great timing to take a look at this infographic.
Titled “Harley Quinn: The Evolution of Madness”, the graphic shows us the evolution of Harley Quinn – from Batman: The Animated Series to The New Batman Adventures #12 to Harley Quinn #1 to Gotham Girls, and everything in between. There’s even the LEGO version and some video game characterizations as well.
Love her or hate her, one thing can be said of Harley: boring she is not.
Here is the funnest villainess in her full glory.
Which one is your favorite Harley?
