The thing about Harley here is that she’s accepting of her actions. She hasn’t changed her mannerisms because they don’t need changing, but her morals/conscience and subsequent behaviour has. Harley knows where she draws the line at ‘crazy but good’ and ‘lunatic’. Wonder Bread here has a classic moral myopia. She looks back on the Regime and looks at where it failed to continue tactically, not where it failed ideologically. Ironically they aren’t too dissimilar and very typical of totalitarian governments. They made too many enemies.

Harley as a hero has such a fun combination of traits, sassy wit, a phd in psychology, and a level of crazy that means she can take a sword to the gut and still be lucid.

You can see the condescending look on wonder woman's face when she says "you lecture me?". I dare say everyone's been in that position, where someone in a position of power talks down to you when they're in the wrong. So Harely being completely unfazed and firing back feels all the better. On another side note, I don't know if this is intentional, but it feels like Harley told supergirl to sit back and watch because she knew how wonder woman would respond and was hoping supergirl would see her true colors.

It made no sense, though. And Wonder Woman is gifted with the wisdom of Athena (besides other Gods' features) so getting flustered over this is out of character. Hailey accumulated "buckets of blood" trying to impress a mass murderer. Said mass murderer led Superman to enforce a new system of rule which of course leads to other "buckets of blood" to stop relentless mass murderers. WW is helping Superman achieve that lofty, utopian goal while Hailey did it for the lols along with aimless Joker.

[@Roosauec]

​​@@Tretas.Wonder Bread is helping to attain that goal by imposing a tyrannical big brother society which kills you for pointing out that the emperor has no clothes. Liberty and democracy are things that are clearly Athenian, and one of the core tenants of philosophy, a Greek invention, revolves around the ability to challenge social norms. If Wonder Bread really had the wisdom of Athena, she would quickly realize that the regime she's trying to bring about goes against everything the Amazons stand for. Sure, Harley has "buckets full" of blood on her hands. But so will Wonder Bread if she achieves the return of the regime. The only difference is, the blood on her hands will be state mandated.

She definitely played a major part, but it is not fair and over simplistic to say "it's all her fault". I mean you obviously have to blame the Joker for Metropolis and for the death of Lois and their son. You also have to blame Harley as his accomplice even if she is now doing everything she can to atone for her mistakes. Batman was too harsh in his rebuke of Superman which drove a wedge between Superman and one of the few people who might (and I do have to emphasize the word "might") have been able to pull him back from the brink; the fact he was willing to forgive and even embrace Harley after Metropolis likely did not help in this regard. Hal Jordan, Flash, Wonder Woman, Shazam, and many others all enabled Superman's descent into madness and tyranny to various degrees. And of course a good chunk of the blame has to fall on Superman himself. After all, despite what anyone else did or failed to do, at the end of the day he is the one who made the choices that he did. He could have decided not to kill anyone else after killing Joker. Conversely, he could have chosen to limit his killings to murderers, rapists, and existential threats to the Earth (like Darkseid and Brainiac) like Red Hood. Sadly, those are not the choices he made, but ultimately they were his choices.

[@benjaminbierley2074]

The issue with Superman/WW getting together is WW if not both of them are enablers to each other to their not-so-good impulses due to both being in the top tier of most powerful beings on earth. WW has a brush with this in the mainline DC comics with her suggesting they interfere with a war going on in a middle eastern country and that "no one could stop them" before Batman who was listening from the shadows firmly shuts her down. While it's unfair to say the core problem is WW and that it's all on her, she DOES come from a more militant background than Clark. Which is fine and rather benign, and she does have a moral faceted view beyond that...but you add Supes to the mix, and the moral guard rails start to become a bit thinner because "no one could stop them" together, and you get the moral cliff of doing "more" to make the world a better place by any means neccesary.

[@sypherthe297th2]

In the comics filling in the 5 years between the detonation and Injustice, its made pretty explicitly clear how much of Superman's turn to the dark side is the fault of this universe's Wonder Woman. She enabled and pushed him to the worse possible decision at every juncture. While allies like Flash and Green Lantern were damned slowly until they were in too deep, she sprinted gleefully down the road to Hell. The Injustice universe wouldn't have worked without Wonder Woman being the monster that she is there. If she had been more like her main universe counterpart, she'd have been able to rally the League against Superman and is one of the few characters strong enough to outright stand against him.

If someone makes a point and you intend to make them quiet about it, you technically proved their point.

[@robonator2945]

this is one of the reasons why I think Harley as a character is so interesting, we often see intelligence and order paired together, but that isn't always true. It's easy to think someone who is smart is emotionally stable or what could only be described as "wise" but that isn't always the case. Plenty of smart people hold opinions that don't really make sense when reflected on or applied. This is quite evident with the "ex-joker harley" thing that's starting to go on. Bad written harleys are, well, quite common, having a token girl power thing is great for seeming inclusive so a lot of incarnations don't really try to write her very well at all. But some really do, and it works quite well. Strangely enough, she parallels batman quite a lot. In the Suicide Squad movie (the good one, not that one) we see her follow the same exact principles as Batman. When the obvious villain says something obviously villainous she straight up kills him then and there, not to be a hero or do the right thing, but just because she realized "that's a red flag" and wasn't going down that route again. This parallels Batman's no-killing rule which he made before he ever started being the Bat specifically because he reasoned that, while torture, killing, guns, etc. may not make you inherently villainous, (I mean, if billions of lives are at stake, killing one isn't inherently a "villainous" act if it's done out of necessity) not doing those things are insurance that you won't ever become villainous. It's a hard and fast rule to prevent his judgement being clouded going forward because, while he is extremely intelligent, he is also well aware that the world gets complicated, and complications, emotional situations, etc. can make him still make the wrong choices. If your noticing a parallel with that Harley scene, you're not wrong, because that is literally the same logic, she knows emotionally she is unstable and has a history of picking the wrong people because they make her feel nice, so she made a promise to herself to follow hard and fast rules against red flags. TLDR : Ex-joker Harley can be an excellent insight into the distinction between stability and intellect and how someone who is smart enough to recognize their own instability might act on it all the while creating an interesting narrative parallel between Batman himself buuuuut sometimes she is written like crap just because having a female lead get over an abusive relationship gets feminism points, even if you throw all of the interesting character dynamics in the trash while doing it. A well written Ex-Joker Harley shows exactly what a "strong female character" should be, a female, that is strong as a character, *_not_* a character who is female and is strong.

[@notheotheralex6213]

Ok wow this is a very well-reasoned explanation of Batman's no-killing rule, and that was just a supporting argument for another well-reasoned argument. I like this.

Intelligence is paired with chaos all the time, that's why we have the mad scientist archetype. Mr Freeze, Dr Doom, plenty on the list.

[@robonator2945]

​@@ariadame102 none of those are chaotic characters. Mr. Freeze is trying to rescue someone he loves, Dr. Doom is trying to rule the world (in some incarnations because he believes him ruling the world is the only way to save it) and basically every "mad scientist" isn't mad at all. They might be crazy, but not mad. At the core of just about every mad scientist isn't insanity or chaos, but rather a motivating factor that they have placed immense internal weight on. Losing someone close to you and feeling sad or grieving isn't chaotic, it's entirely rational, but Dr. Freeze took that rational response and amplified it to an extreme. His reaction is no less rational or thought out, it's just a non-measured response. Same with Dr. Doom (operating under the interpretation that he IS trying to take over the world so that it can prosper, AND that he is wrong in that assertion, although I vaguely remember one time a god that could see the future actually saying he was right on that, buuuuut I don't recall exactly and might be misremembering that) he had a fucked up past and now a mix of egotistical narcissism and genuine altruism motivates him to attempt to rule the world. If you believed that the world would go to ruin, except in the ONE circumstance that you were ruling it, and you had the technological and magical know-how of Dr. Doom, AND his traumatic backstory, yeah, trying to rule the world is an extreme response, but it's also not an unpredictable one, ergo not chaotic. Ex-Joker-Harley however has had several fairly mainstream conflicting outcomes, from being a hero trying to set things right, to striking out on her own as a villain, and even in the middle, where it's kind of unclear where you would pin her on the scale. And yet, despite that massive range of outcomes, it always feels in character. As an example, Dr. Doom, really had no other paths, giving his backstory, his beliefs, etc. he was going to try to be a villain. (or at least antagonist if that time god said he was actually right but, once again, don't remember for sure) I mean FFS the good guys don't try to rule the world. Harley by contrast, well lets keep her very much "not going down that road again" hate for the Joker, that can apply in basically any way. She could try to position herself as an antithesis to him, trying to do good and right her wrongs, in the process trying to fight her chaotic tendencies. Instead she could interpret turning good for trading the Joker for just another cause, and break out on her own, only looking out for herself and trying to maximize how much she gets out of the world. Or, maybe she does what she has in a few interpretations and starts/joins a crew, trading out an abusive relationship to a collaborative team. But then, that team, is it good, or bad, would she see working for the greater good as being at the cost to herself, and associate that with her past relationship with the Joker, or, would she see being bad as being more closely linked to the joker. Unlike the "mad" scientist archetype, she has no predictable outcome, ergo, chaotic.

[@ariadame102]

@@robonator2945 Feeling grieve and sadness towards the loss of loved ones is not at all rational, it's actually irrational, as all emotions tend to be. A rational response to the loss of a companion is to seek alternatives or replacements, not to burden oneself with emotions that serve no practical purpose. Heck, emotional attachment itself contradicts rationality, and human beings are much more irrational than they are rational. Amplifying an irrational response to the extreme is most definitely chaotic. What you described are "understandable" behaviors, not rational, not even close. Mad and scientists go hand in hand because of the nature of science. Science explores the unknown, which necessitates challenging, and sometimes breaking, the established orderly systems. This is why mad scientists in fictions typically engage in immoral dangerous experiments, and value progresses (chaos) over opinions of the masses (order). Whatever their specific background/reason may be, it does not change this element of chaos in their ethos that characterizes the archetype. It may contextualize the chaos, sure, doesn't make it any less chaotic.

[@robonator2945]

@@ariadame102 by that logic then EVERYONE is chaotic fundamentally so it's a useless term. If you called every spec of dust in space a planet, I don't care what you call a planet, you have defined the word out of meaning. If grieving over someone you know dying is a fundamentally "chaotic" response then you have successfully made the word "chaotic" mean literally nothing since it applies to everything short of Shockwave tier pure logical processing. Your so focussed on trying to fit your definitions into words you havent bothered to check if they make sense, like calling scientific progress "chaos". There is nothing chaotic about technological development, it moves in an entirely predictable path. As time passes, excluding edge case factors such as war or other disasters, technological progress steadily increases. There is nothing chaotic about that, that is a clear, reliable, and indisputable pattern, by definition, not chaotic.

[@LadyDoomsinger]

I wouldn't place the blame squarely on Wonder Woman. While she does escalate the situation and enable Superman - he is still responsible for his own actions. The true cause of the events of the Injustice story is not Wonder Woman, or even the Joker - those were catalysts setting events in motion - the true cause are traits that Superman has always had, in every adaptation of his character: the belief that humans are weak and fragile, and his fear of being alone. Because of these fundamental flaws in his character, his over-compensation for the loss of Lois and Metropolis is perfectly understandable, a reaction that most incarnations of Superman would probably share if put in the same situation - he is so desperate to protect humanity, that he will go to any length to ensure their safety, even if it means taking away their freedom, or even killing people who threaten that safety. This is why the premise of Injustice, "Superman goes bad", while it seems completely opposite of the Superman we're used to, is actually an exploration of the Superman we already knew, when his fundamental character flaws come to the forefront of the story. (Note: I'm not saying Superman is a bad character - all good characters, whether Heroes or Villains should have some specific flaw, intrinsic to their nature and personality, that they must overcome or be defeated by it.)

Always drives me crazy when people keep girl-bossing Harley Quinn. The whole point of her entire character is that she was manipulated by the Joker to be something she's not. Scars run deep so she can't just *go back* but that doesn't mean she should be destined to be this airey little child of violence, especially when she tends to only get more violent when you take her away from the Joker which makes zero sense to me. Modern interpretations want me to celebrate a caricature of what she is but I'm glad Injustice realizes that people don't stay the same when saved from their abusers and enablers. That's why I'm happier with Injustice's version of the character.

[@LadyDoomsinger]

I feel like a lot of modern adaptations of Harley try way too hard to make her a Deadpool-clone. Breaking the fourth wall, dispensing constant jokes, being silly and random. That's not what made the fans fall in love with Harley when she was originally introduced as the Jokers side-kick (originally intended to be a one-off in a single episode of the Animated Batman). I've always thought Harley was the Tragedy to the Joker's Comedy; while he was laughing and fooling around, chasing batman and causing mayhem; she was the consequence, an example of how he damaged the people around him, and how being drawn into his madness could become an inescapable spiral of abuse and violence. She was also a damn good representation for domestic abuse and mental illness - but for some reason all the potential for deep themes and contemplations of intelligent issues were pushed aside to make her a laughing stock. While I love Harley Quinn in the Injustice series, my favorite adaptation of her character is in the comic *Harleen* by *Stjepan Sejic* - which is a reimagining of her origin story, fairly faithful to her original character, but with it's own more emotional take on it.

[@starkiller1289]

From what I see if Harley is given a chance to be a hero AND is sick of Joker's abuse then she leaves and tries to redeem herself. If Joker is killed or dies while she's under the dilussion that he actually likes her instead of seeing him for who he always is then she dives even deeper into the Harly Quinn side and goes up to 11 in sadism with less theatrics since there's no Joker to preform for.

Harley had reasons for how she was, she was sick and had her mental instabilities stoked by an individual that knew all the right buttons to push. Lantern was a dick, he murdered guy Gardner in cold blood because sinestro said he killed Jon Stewart, and before that attacked him because Guy saved his girls life. He went on to be partly responsible for the green lantern corps defeat that day as he betrayed all of his friends and loved ones. On top of that he then went on to continue performing horrible acts as a yellow lantern, he stood idly by and attempted to justify Shazam's death, tried fighting flash when flash actually grew a conscience, attempted to kill batman a couple times and only stopped because he was forced to by the good superman during the events of the first game. Many wouldn't think him deserving because of how easily he was swayed into believing superman and how easily he turned on his friends, that kind of demonstration compromises trust and makes it difficult to want to give them a second chance. Harley Quinn never betrayed anyone but herself, she had her fascinations with the joker but him being dead and her experiencing interactions with others proved she was never a bad person, simply misguided and a little loopy.

Never a bad person the sticks that are up Batman and Superman's rears! On the subject of Guy Gardner; I find it a pretty ironic. How many fans actually like Guy? Hardly any! In fact, I can't even find any that don't utterly HATE HIS GUTS! I mean, I don't really hate him, but I understand why most people do. He's rude and spiteful to an obnoxious degree and is seen as little more than a joke because of that, even in-universe. Then he gets killed; and suddenly fans start considering him relevant. Class can we spell "Two-Faced?". As for Shazam, I honestly don't think even Hal believed himself. I believe he was lying both to Flash and himself. He was probably just too afraid to go against Superman himself. Did that make him a coward? Well... yes, it did. Of course, that undoubtedly came from being a Yellow Lantern. Now, you say he was easily swayed; but that's not really a fair statement. Nearly the whole Justice League followed Superman's lead after his dark descent, but they didn't do so in ignorance. They were shaken by Joker's accomplishment. Fear is what drove them; unfortunately for worse. Even Flash went along with the Regime as they took out Green Arrow and other heroes that opposed them, their FRIENDS! He also served as an emissary, along with Shazam, for Superman to get Aquaman into a contract to turn over Atlantis to Superman's control, after Superman blackmailed Aquaman by putting Atlantis in the middle of a desert! Flash didn't turn against the regime until he witnessed Superman kill one of their own teammates over a simple question of order! Harley too also didn't turn away from Joker just because he abused her; she need a push from Lex, an encouragement to leave him. So, Green Lantern? Flash? Harley? They're all in the same boat! They've done things they regret, awful things; and yes, Flash standing by as people got killed as disproportionate punishment counts. Flash himself is burdened by it; he no doubt regrets not trying to stop Superman from killing Shazam. As for Harley and Hal, they both want a second chance; and Harley is not a lick better than Hal in this instance. Still, I guess some DC fans, or should I say BATMAN fans, will make any excuse, and I mean ANY excuse to agree with Batman.

@@wilykat That's still a form of trust, especially since Harley didn't backstab him, plus Batman even mentions about expanding his circle of trust

[@Anthonymous]

Although Injustice Harley still has a long way to go in terms of truly being redeemed after working alongside the Joker, especially during the whole Nuke thing, I at least appreciate how much of an effort she’s making to at least take a few good steps forward. Maybe this could be further developed in Injustice 3 if that’s ever made (assuming NR will even care about developing her arc more by then).

Not just the face looks better, but the character design too. This face looks more feminine & has various facial expressions that aren't basically just 😐 90% of the time.

I don’t agree with the people in this comment section. After reading Ground Zero I feel that Harley’s character arc was definitely earned

@Sad B!tch Ask all her victims if they forgive her. Put her in front of a judge and get sentenced. Put her in jail for the time she deserves. Then, and only then can you talk about any redemption BS. Until then, the is a fugitive and Batman is breaking the law even more then usual.

@Sad B!tch ok Wanda fan

[@irondude0611]

@Sad B!tch I think the Injustice Harley was the first successful attempt at having her redeem herself and it's wildly popular too so it makes sense that other DC writers would want to follow that trend. It also fits her character bc pre Joker she truly wanted to help people get better

When you have to compare your ledger to Harley's to feel less like a villain, you've done something wrong with your life.

See if this kind of writing and character interaction was present in DC's theatrical endeavors then I might actually like the DCEU. A story like this would be amazing put to screen if you got the right creative minds and financial backing behind it.

Harley is the best character. Her story through the comics is fantastic-even if Year 0 and Year 3 do have a little bit of conflict.

[@WALID972]

Why do wo mean ?

[@ComXDude]

@@WALID972 Just a couple of little plot holes, which mostly come down to Year 0 being written after the original main run, and being more about building more on relationships so that when Year 1 happens, everything hits harder. They're nothing story-shattering, but depending on your preferences, can be somewhat jarring.

[@WALID972]

well i read both of the comics ( a long time ago) but i dont see why there will be a conflict between year 0 and year 3 can you refresh my memory about the plor hole you talking about

[@ComXDude]

@@WALID972 I might be misremembering, but I believe it was Year 3; basically, Ivy and Swamp Thing getting it on whlie Trigon and Mr. Mxyzptlk are fighting, despite being married to Harley in Year 0. I wouldn't normally count this as a plot hole, for the reasons mentioned in my previous response, but when she again shows up in Ground Zero (which, I believe was written alongside or shortly after Year 0), no mention of it is made, despite it being made quite clear that both are far more devoted to their relationship than their main continuity counterparts. It's just a random, out-of-character moment compared to everything else we've been shown of this version of Ivy within the confines of Injustice 1's continuity. And then Injustice 2 happens, and casually disregards a lot of continuity for just about everyone involved. But we don't need to talk about that.

Reminds me of the words of Zero Punctuation: "Wonder Woman. Who had zero of Superman's reason to go evil but did it with twice the gusto!"

[@MichaelLeahcim1128]

Let's just put this here and confirm a couple of things. 1.This does indeed confirm that Harley is trying to make up for her mistake because she's not making excuses for them like she was tricked and manipulated into doing it she recognized that with her skills and intellect she really should have realized it earlier on but is too late to whine about it now so she's just gonna own up to it and try and make up for it. 2.Redemption by the sheer definition of the word is trying to make up for something you did that you know was wrong so you're now trying to own up and atone for it. 3. Ignore Brandon if they comment because it's obvious if you bother to look and read their comments that their a troll. He keeps bringing up that Harley doesn't deserve atonement when she's actively trying to do it in the first place. People who don't deserve it are people like the Joker who has zero remorse or care for what they did. Meanwhile people like Harley who realized their screw up and are tying to make up for it at least deserve the benefit of the doubt and be allowed to prove their resolve to atone for what they've done. At this point I'm not even sure they know what they're saying or the meaning of the words that their typing out to look like their making an important or big point. And so far for both Injustice and the actual comic one or at least those who actually keep the already presented and provided character traits instead of reinventing them have more than proven their actually deserving of a second chance in life. Even the comic one usually tried to turn over a new leaf early on the comics it's usually just the Joker or some other corrupting influence that just gets her screwed over or comic book writers forgetting about it just resetting her back to zero.

[@michaelwhitmire9015]

Insurgence harley redeemed herself but her main universe counterpart didn't.

[@bearjuncture]

Harley Quinn can be redeemable, but it still not right that after assisting in killing millions and inadvertently getting nightwing killed by freeing all the inmates in Arkham. That she gets to walk free and be Batman’s sidekick.

[@ThatGuyChoco]

She killed millions and laughed it off

[@lorenzobaxter]

@@bearjuncture that's not how you should see it. She's under Batmans charge. That's good. If you're worried about her criminality, Bruce can watch her 24/7 and won't miss a thing. And this way, she can put her skills to good use. Locking that up in prison is a waste. It's better to have her atone and use her skills to make up for what they've done. Prison doesn't do anything to help anyone.

[@bearjuncture]

@@lorenzobaxter I’m not worried about her criminality but her accountability she has a lot of blood on her hands and helped lead into Superman going mad. She should at least be put on house arrest or in prison until she’s needed. But we getting none of that and it’s stupid.
