Dr. Harleen Frances Quinzel, M.D., welcomes you to Evil Anonymous, the support group for super villains in need; where no problem is too insane or homicidal, and where discretion is assured as only a clown princess of crime can—which is to say, not at all. But when Harley Quinn starts using her patients’ own evil schemes against them, it turns out that a much bigger, far more dangerous, and truly life-altering joke is being played on her.

Quality stories like Kingdom Comes and The long halloween/Dark victory.... and now we've ended up catering to tumblr feminazi's who want to say "I'm so alternative I love comics" but only read fucking Harley Quinn. Shes a villain; not a dogooder.

I dropped Marvel because of this goofy pandering shit; DC seem to be testing the waters with it. I want interesting stories; not stupid shit like Red hood + Arsenal try too hard to be hip, or Batgirl with her fucking starbucks and twitter.

Fucking hell the comic industry makes me TRIGGERED

The Harley Gang suck, all they do is chew up page space and not one person alive can name any one of them but Harley Quinn herself.

Just another typical attempt by DC to clog the market with lite versions of their more popular characters.

and there's your number one DC comic book for April.

Well Superman is not that popular unless you put a top writer on his book
look at superman unchained sales
if they had a better artist it would have been a great ongoing

>>79096172
Yeah, but at least DC only pushes that with characters that can be goofy, like Harley and Bizarro. Although only Harley is making success.
>>
>>79095975
>miniseries

That means NOTHING.
>>
>>79095926
This is just her new mini that is replacing Harley/Power girl
>>
>>79095467
So she's gonna have the white hair now like in the movie?
>>
I wonder how DC top brass feels about a character they don't particularly like becoming this popular
I mean with marvel it makes sense since alonso is a huge deadpool fan but with DC Johns and Didio are probably mystified about Harley's success
>>
>>79096195
I like Harlem Harley
She seems cool
I like how they are each named after something silly like that
>>
>>79095467
hmmm this reminds me of sailor moon
>>
So what are the differences between Deadpool's usage at Marvel and Harley's usage at DC? I don't mean the characters and their personalities or actions, but how the characters themselves are used at their respective companies.

For example, how Deadpool being given variant covers, or how Harley is being given several miniseries.
>>
>>79096374
There's very little difference imo
Harley won't do something try hard like meme cover but she does have variants every other month and she does get a lot of specials and mini series
similar to deadpool
>>
>>79095467
Jesus christ, when are they going to stop?
>>
>>79096374
I think they are pretty much the same when it comes to gimmicks like variant covers and all that, but overall Harley stays more on her corner. It's almost like she has her own line of comics.
>>
>>79096491
When plebs stop buying her comics.

It's only going to get worse with the movie coming out.
>>
Damn it I need to buy the April fools issue

>>79096374
Harley variants are just variants with Harley. Deadpool variants are cringy attempts at being hip by drawing memes with Deadpool on them.

>>79096374
Harley Quinn will never join the JL
Whereas Deadpool will join the Avengers,X-men,T bolts
He's everywhere
Harley Quinn for the most part stays in her corner

>>79096623
It's that line of thought that leads to the slippery slope that Marvel went down. You either have creative integrity or you don't, and "capitalizing on success" is just another way of saying shilling memes. DC is supposed to be the superior company and the way they've been shilling HQ is some straight up Marvel tactics.

I'm not saying this is the end of the world or anything, but it's definitely a bad sign that DC keeps OKing this shit. I go to DC to escape the SJWs, not run into them.
>>
>>79096699
There's little to no SJWism in Harley comics

>>79096622
Hmm, she's pretty hot isn't she?

That you actually think this only proves that you've fallen to their side and don't belong here. Maybe Marvel/tumblr would be more your speed.

>>
>>79099241
Seriously.
One reason why DC had so many shitty selling books get to 20+ issues at the beginning of the New 52 was because sales for the higher selling stuff were incredibly inflated.
Batman isn't selling 150k regularly anymore, JL is below 100k, and even Harley is below 70k most of time.
If this is what it takes for Midnighter to get an extra arc, then I'll be glad to ignore a third Harley book.

This

It's not a coincidence that DKIII finally came out when Didio/Lee went to Miller a couple years ago, that they're hyping up Miller despite him having barely anything to do with it, that they're considering other Miller projects (ASBAR sequel, DKIV, and Carrie spin off), and that Harley suddenly has two new books.
DC's sales are the lowest in like five years, and while they're not pre-52 levels yet, they need to keep them up before the movies come out and they get more attention.
I doubt Didio wants to cancel all the books below 20k, so all the Miller and Harley stuff is them trying to compensate.

DC has always given their more popular characters 2+ books. What are you talking about?

Batman had Batman, 'Tec, The Dark Knight, and B&R at the start of New 52.

So, this is a group of thugs/villains?

I mean, isn't Harley Quinn a villain?

It's a Superbook but it's still a book starring Batman. Even actually has Bruce leading it unlike Batman and Detective right now if you want to split hairs.

None of these are in direct conflict with Deadpool's character, though.

>>79099067

Deadpool kind of is more fleshed out, though.

He's a pretty complex character when written well and he's had more instances in which he was written well than Harley.

Confirmed for not knowing shit about Deadpool.
>>
>>79102598

Deadpool went from a one-note rip off of Deathstroke to a complex and deeply conflicted character under Joe Kelly. Since then, writers such as Gail Simone, Frank Nicieza, Rick Remender and Gerry Duggan have gone a long way to making him one of Marvel's most emotionally complex and well-developed character, even managing to salvage him from years of Waypool, which I assume is the Deadpool you're "familiar" with.

Harley, on the other hand, was written well by one person, written pretty okay by another and subsequently written like shit by every one else in all her appearances since.

You're just biased because, for whatever reason, you're a grown man who still thinks company wars matter.
>>
>>79098890

Harley didn't get her first self-titled series
until 2000. Deadpool got a mini-series in 1995 after already being a key player in X-force. Harley was a blip on the radar until recently and her catalogue is dwarfed by Deadpools.
>>
>>79095585

I guarantee you that once Suicide Squad bombs DC is going to drop Harley like a oiled up bar of soap.
>>

why would they do that if her comics keep selling?

Is anyone else bothered by the fact that Harley's hair now matches her hair from the Suicide Squad movie?

>>79112942
I was surprised to turn a 180 from hating him to loving him.

I also thought he wasn't that popular of a character though, am I wrong?
>>
>>79112942
Well she is a character from the real world applying comic knowledge, just not as crazy

Maybe more of a "what if SBP wasn't a villain"
>>
>>79113021
not really

it looks better than the half black half red to me
>>
>>79113032
I thought most people hate him because he represent the typical comic book fan. I dunno if he is popular
>>
>>79113021
Not really, the split down the middle hair is shit. At least she's blonde again.
>>
>>79113091
>>79113092
I didn't mean that it looks bad. It just bothers me when writers and artists change things in the comics to match popular movies.

This isn't nearly as bad as some instances of that happening though. It's not like when 616 Star Lord inexplicably transformed into MCU Star Lord.
>>
>>79113150
I think she still has red/black in the better book (New Suicide Squad, ironically enough). Or at least she did in the March solicits.
>>
>>79113021
I would be more bothered if it was another character like Joker but Harley looks different in almost every book she's in now
>>
>>79113150
>It just bothers me when writers and artists change things in the comics to match popular movies.
in this case it is a cosmetic change and it looks better than before so I don't really care

Yeah except that's a complete fucking lie. Superman has Superman, Action Comics, Lois and Clark, Superman/ wonder woman Superman / Batman and Justice League. There may be more I'm missing but there is also th neil adams book coming soon . Superman has more books than anybody right now

Suicide Squad
Harley Quinn
Injustice
Harley Quinn specials
Harley's little black book
Harley Quinn minis

If you count all that throughout 2015 she appeared in more comics than Superman or Batman individually
>>
>>79113503
How are you getting more than Superman when it's clearly fewer?

You have to do some massive mental gymnastics to think Harley appears more than Batman and Superman. If we're counting Injustice, Superman currently has 10 comics , none of which are one shots specials.
>>
>>79113574

He's retarded. Literally fucking retarded. He has listed the Harley minis, plural even though there has only been one so far
>>
>>79096056
At least Deadpool's books are actually good, and Marvel hasn't forced them to be in line with the movie or memes.

I feel bad for Harleyfags right now. It's like Weekend at Bernie's for them I bet.
>>
>>79113611
But Harley is clearly popular, she doesn't need to be top 2 in books at DC to prove it. Why would he just lie on the internet like that?

If they suddenly make Lex Luthor look like Jesse Eisenberg then I might have a problem. Now, it's just a minor appearance change that looks better.

This is stupid considering how much DC has always banked on the Bat-titles. It's pretty clear the bitching about Harley is mostly due to the fact that people don't like the way Palmiotti and crew write her so any type of extra push for that type of Harley triggers people. If this was Dini/Timm BTAS Harley shilling people would be cumming from all orifices.

Because comic sales are almost entirely determined by how it succeeds in other mediums now. Harley is successful because every other part of the media she's appeared has been fairly popular, as well as Batman. It's also why Superman has been fairly unpopular, people think his comics suck because the movies have. Once SS bombs, everyone is going to think she's terrible.
