/co/ always make me feel so much smarter than the plebs who use this site.

You need autism to not get that this is humoristic, its not to be taken seriously, and Harley is just making a shitty execuse because she knows that she fucked up.

But AUTISTS on this board think that the writter is seriously advocating for more representation on murderous nutjobs. How stupid you need to be? The avarage person will not think this, you have to go an extra mile.

Its Harley, she killed the niggam and started to develop a sympathy to his partner.

In this page she feels ashamed, and tried to execuse her bulshit with the first thing that came to her mind. Its not suppused to be taken seriously or in the right.

>>85641602

The joke is that she's saying something positive about Harley Quinn when she herself actually is Harley Quinn. The feminist part isn't a joke, the writer seriously believes she's a strong, independent woman.

>>85641623
How can you possibly get that?. Jeez

>>85641623
The series ends with Harley Quinn accepting that she'll never escape the influence of the Joker. Not exactly the best "feminist" message.

>>85641476

>>85641623
That... is literally the opposite of what the book is about. GG admitting you didn't read it.

Fuck it. Posting the last issue of the best ongoing that Harley will ever have

>>85641010
The problem with that is the shift in her interpretation over the years to the point that by today's standards this could easily be taken at face value.
Lets face it, Harley Quin is one of DC's biggest names, and they're going to milk that for all it's worth while pissing off as few people as possible. We already saw that exact thing take place in the new Suicide Squad movie, where one of the major focuses in reediting was to change her dynamic with the Joker to something much more empowering and in line with this sort of viewpoint.
Plus, considering all the bullshit Marvel has been pulling lately, is it any real surprise that people would look at this and not assume the same kind of agenda based writing is going on here as well?

If you don't read comics it doesn't matter how many fucking Tumbler articles you read, you DO NOT know what you are shitposting about.
For fuck's sake, there's actual comic fans that hate Harley Quinn for legitimate /co/-related reasons, and they are being drowned out by every hijacked shitpostethon that makes the most idiotic arguments we've ever heard.

Y'know with context that's actually really funny.
Also as a comic, this is really good. My one beef being how she always seems to win in a fight without much issue; because a little struggle makes it all a lot more grounded but on Issue 31 now and this is some solid noire stuff.

>Harley Quinn

Decent fap bait but completely cancerous otherwise with one of the worst fanbases of all time.

The point is, Harley Quinn is "deluded" in that she thinks herself a role model.

If people like Harley Quinn, then they will likely side with her which means people think shes a role model. You guys might say that it's just delusion, but who is to say others do?

>>85639675
That- that's not the actual dialogue is it? Because that is the most suspicious bullshit I think I've ever heard come out of the mouth of a comics character.

That's like "Kylie Jenner is so brave" levels of PR spin, when we're talking about the hit & run.

>>85650547
>>85646565

What in god's name causes you to think this. Even without the rest of the page it's obvious that she's joking.

>The point is, Harley Quinn is "deluded" in that she thinks herself a role model.
Where in the book does this happen? Because this is the complete opposite of the message.

>>85641451
>context.
She's the worst psychiatrist ever.
"Don't come to me for help."
"Your substance abuse makes you a bad person."
"I don't want to hear your excuses."
"I don't want to make you feel better."
"You don't know the person who murdered your partner, I'm sure she's fine."
"Lul, I'm totally scamming this cop."

>>85651727
>That's like "Kylie Jenner is so brave" levels of PR spin, when we're talking about the hit & run.

It completely baffles me that people don't understand this panel, to the point that I swear you have to he doing it on purpose.

If you and I were talking about Bruce Jenner, and I said "Yes but xhe's so brave! It took real courage to commit that hit and run!," even without the intonation the sarcasm would be pretty clear.

The phase "Some might say she's a feminist role model staking her claim in a male dominated world" references feminist talking points. They are talking about committing actual murder. The joke is that Harley's applying a common feminist statement in an audacious way.

It is a quip. Do you not see that?

>>85641366

We should get Nick Spencer for Harley Quinn. If he won't write more Bedlam, he can just do it to Harley.

>>85651810
No, I don't, because it sounds like she's trying to justify her own actions.

See, a normal human thing would be to say "I'm sorry". That could hit on two levels, the impersonal response to learning about a loss ("I'm sorry your car got totaled."), and the personal response claiming responsibility ("I'm sorry that I wrecked your car"). The flat "I'm sorry" could be misinterpreted as "I'm sorry to head that", While she actually means "I'm sorry I killed him". Not funny, but a far better character moment than... The "It's meant to be funny!" Talking points thing there.

>>85651872

Good thing Harley isn't a normal person, eh? She's just playing with him because he doesn't know she's Harley, it's a classic joke where a character in disguise is praising him/herself

Also, she never killed the cop, she was framed for the murder, that's why she's investigating
You're just randomly talking shit

>>85639675
Most people don't understand it because you posted 2 panels, not one, you STUPID FUCKING IDIOT!!!

>>85639675

>>85653221

>When did it go so wrong?

The ship went from being fapbait to being progressive.

>>85653273
But how?. It's been the same as always, I truly don't understand you people

Is Harley still a villain in this panel? Isn't that something Harley would say?

The only weird thing is that the guy should find it a fucked up thing to say to him, since they're talking about how she killed his partner.

>>85652979
She's still my favorite.

People are just buttmad that the shitty N52 Harley is popular and try to take it out on the character as a whole. Might as well say Superman is bad because Snyder exists or the FF suck because their movies have all been shit.

People have been shipping Harley and Ivy together so that Harley can be "free" from Joker, it's not just about girl-friends with benefits anymore. I've been told that's what people triggered by Suicide Squad have been arguing online on sites like Twitter, that only wiht Ivy Harley could be truly happy but le evil patriarchy keeps forcing her with Joker to fuel the manbabies' fantasies. It's like everyone's forgetting Ivy is a bad guy too, but i guess it depends on the perspective? And stuff has been bleeding into comics too, with writers trying to rework their relationship as something completely romatically healthy

And what's funny is that this isn't in the main book, Conner/Palmiotti Harley is still slutting around with every first guy she meets, and there's also a panel where Ivy points out she doesn't get jealous and just wants her friend to be happy, but just like with the "stronk and indipendent gurl with actual doctorate" meme people have been taking elements here and there out of context to try promote their view on the character as the only right one

What triggered people in the Squad movie in the representation of Joker & Harley relationship, true some use Harley/Ivy as example of good relationship, but that's just for Harley's character, it's not about the ship but how Ayer and company misrepresented an abusive relationship as a good one

>online on sites like Twitter, that only wiht Ivy Harley could be truly happy but le evil patriarchy keeps forcing her with Joker to fuel the manbabies' fantasies.

Let's be honest, it's truly far-fetched to think that Harley could be a happy person with Ivy when it has been shown multiple times by multiple writers that that's it's true?. Some people forget that Ivy is a villain because they want to push the anti-hero aspect for them, I'd say it's bad because one of the aspects of the Harley/Ivy ship is that they are villains but still respect each other. I'd say that making Harley/Ivy romantically healthy is a grey area, sure they are villains and like so they must have some weird aspect, but also Ivy has been shown to have so much love/respect/appreciation for Harley that it wouldn't be weird that Ivy could be the more healthy one for Harley

Yeah, thats what's wrong, people taking images out-of-context to promote something that goes against the character. I am 100% with you there

All in all, Harley/Ivy isn't the ship that you'd call a "progressive" one because it comes from a time where all of this never was into discussion

Harley's a villain. Villains aren't role-models.
Role-models are explicitly to be emulated by the audience. Calling Harley Quinn a role-model is stating out-loud you want your audience to be capricious murderers.

>Joker electro-shocking Harley, convincing her to jump in acid to possibly die, abandoning her to drown in a river and flagging her as a sex object with his goons is what counts as a good relationship these days?

I dunno, I haven't seen the movie, I'm just going by what people has posted, and If I go with that I'm bound to be wrong, but If I recall some people have said that the electroshock was with Harley consent and not a forced one.


>>But Harley didn't ever tell Joker to fuck off and they're still together in the end!

People are icky about Joker/Harley because it's been shown multiple times that their relationship is wrong, and seeing something different, maybe an aspect of it shown in positive light it's bound to piss people off

>So? Did people really expect her to get rid of his influence on their cinematic debut? I get it, there's cut stuff like that scene where he slaps her with a gun, but people have been blowing up the issue out of proportion

What's going on? Are you ignoring the whole thread or what?
Harley was framed for cop's partner's murder. Cops want to get her, blonde cop in particular. Harley pretends to be her psychiatrist to try understand what's going on and why he hates her masked self so much. After some back and forth in their sessions Harley makes a joke about how cool she is which is supposed to be funny for the reader because we know a) she's Harley in disguise b) that she doesn't think of herself as a role model

>>85655931
>>85655956
About why the cop doens't flip it's because she just reported, although maybe sarcastically, what "some might say", not that she believes such a thing, he has no real reason to get mad at her in particular. Plus i'd add that, as you can get by the dialogue, he thinks her aggressive/unusual words are just part of the psychiatric therapy
