She didnt look like a harlequin in arkham asulym (the game) either and no one bitched about that.

Yeah, that works.

No witty quotes though.

But she's still blonde in that game and has a lot of clothes than that version --;

With that look I don't know if she were to kill me or to offer me her body for a price o_O

  • Make sense? What fun is there in making sense?

At least an attempt was made to make her still look like Harley Quinn.  There is nothing about the new costume to suggest that character is anything other than a hooker outside an ICP concert that maybe saw a few minutes of an old episode of Batman TAS.  Just look at them side by side:



How the hell is that supposed to be the same character?

Okay, gonna go a little fanboy here, but:

1)  That new look doesn't fit her at all.  The entire point of her real classic costume was that she was supposed to look like a harlequin.  Because she's Harley Quinn.  That's the whole premise of her identity.  You can't just put a hooker in juggalo makeup and say it's Harley Quinn.
2)  The fact that they replaced her comical clown hammer with an actual sledgehammer is missing the point so badly I don't even know where to begin.

Most of the re-designs I could live with, but they've completely ruined my Harley.  >:(

*storms off to re-read Mad Love

Yeah they changed the hammer but at lest she still has one.
juggalos, what came first them or batman beyond. If batman beyond came first then what she's wearing is still some what cannon.

Still not liking the cape though.


Isn't this a similar situation with X-23 from x-men evolution and X-23 in the comics. Where the cartoon came first but the comics turned her into a hooker. Isn't X-23 still loved I'm mocking marvel

I like the new hq design. Not as it being a replacment, nor do I neccesarily think its an improvement, but its definetely good for a stand-alone or anime character.

Anyway am I the only one that had some problem understanding 7 soldiers. most of it got but I couldn't understand the kid team of 7 soldiers who went into the swamp it was very strange. Part of my problem could have been because I read countdown first.

So the first of the new 52 is out. I just read the new Justice League. While I certainly didn't hate it, I could not shake this All Star Batman & Robin feeling in the way Batman and Green Lantern were handled. Namely, Batman manages to come off more as an ass than anything else.

Otherwise it's obvious that they're trying very, very hard to appeal to some kinda younger crowd but the issue was surprisingly good. If for no other reason than the fact that Batman owns GL.

I just read it, and while I'm not really sure what happened in flashpoint and all that, but I'm just gonna go with "it's a new story and nothing that I knew exists unless I see it again". So, since I can't just forget what I already knew, it's kinda weird to see them in different costumes, and superman looks like he's in his early twenties now. Plus apparently every super hero is actually a vigilante that the cops are trying to kill (instead of it being just Batman).
....

Okay now, I just tried to look at some stuff on this flashpoint thing but I can't really find much, so I'm gonna try to read flashpoint comics to see what happened and what's going on with the multi/uni-verse.

With The New 52 releases, also appeared the #5 and final of Flashpoint saga, in the end of #4, Barry Allen confirm his doubts about Professor Zoom being the one who changed the time to fuck up the world and the superheroes went to their own destruction. And in #5, after the defeat of Zoom, Flash tried of recreate the lost universe in a similr way than the existing one, the origin of the New 52

If you're trying to explain that to everyone else, then fine, but me on the other hand:  I have no idea what you're talking about  o_O. I read nothing from Flash, and I read nothing from Flashpoint.

Now I did look at the end of Flashpoint#5, and saw that Flash undid time or something and talked to Batman, that's it. everything else is unknown to me aside from some title names.

Then you should read Flashpoint. Basically Professor Zoom (a.k.a. Reverse Flash) changed the history for his convenience to fuck up Flash and all the story:
-Barry never got the lightning that converted into Flash
-The Wayne one murdered was Bruce, that made Thomas (his father) mad and converted into Batman (a la All-Star Batman, a total badass)
-Aquaman and Wonder Woman got into a war with their reigns ruling the Earth (something like superhero's Cold War)
-Kal-El never was found by Kent family, but for US govenment. Think about Roswell

And some other atrocities. Resuming, just read it ;)
