    Why are people still complaining about the New 52 Harley Quinn? Everyone fails to see the irony in their arguments. For example, people whine that she's "oversexualized," or her costumes are "slutty," and so on. Do people even remember how she dressed in Arkham Asylum? Do they even know that she slept with her professors to get good grades in college in her original Mad Love origins? If the Suicide Squad movie was made by Tim Burton, then it would make sense to use the so-called "classic" court jester outfit, and her original origin. Also, why are people still complaining about why Matt Kindt had her "murder children" in her villains month issue (Detective Comics 23.2) when it's not even canon anymore? First of all, her villain's month issue ties in to the Suicide Squad continuity. Her solo series starts off where Suicide Squad #15 (Death of the Family) left off, therefore it's not part of the Harley Quinn timeline. Secondly, exploding video games was gentle treatment compared to what the Crime Syndicate had in store for the universe. Thirdly, it was "VILLAIN'S MONTH" after all, and her solo series did not exist yet, so technically she was still a VILLAIN before Conner and Palmiotti created a new timeline for her, and made Harley an Anti-hero. Fourthly, I'll bet everyone has eaten baby carrots and cutie oranges at least once in there lives. Meaning, everyone has eaten children, so stop pretending like you're all innocent, because you're not. Also, why is the so-called Harley/Joker "relationship" still being romanticized? If you people love to advocate abuse/domestic violence and are into that, then go right ahead. However, you're complaining will not bring back the pre-Flashpoint days. Harley's no longer Joker's punching bag. Even if she is DC's Deadpool, she's selling far better now than she ever was pre-Flashpoint. Comic-chron is proof of that. My advice to all you whiners out there: stop following Harley Quinn; don't watch the Suicide Squad movie if it really irritates you that much; and either read something else, or reread the pre-Flashpoint comics. How hard is that to do? What else will it take to make you people stop whining?

    Furthermore, why are people still complaining about her new origins? Everyone has there own preferences. But from what I've seen and read so far, her new origins is canon, and Mad Love has gone out the window. Plus this whole "TRUE FANS VS FAKE FANS" B.S. needs to stop. It's no wonder why you nerds and geeks are ostracized by society, and therefore why women laugh and ridicule you. Because you act so high and mighty for liking something since it came into existence, and reading the source material since it was first published. Yet all you do is talk smack to people who are new to comics (especially those who barely got started since the NEW 52) and claim you're all so godly intelligent. I bet $20 more than half of you don't even know the caliber of an M16A2 service rifle, let alone the current events that are going on in this world. ISIS has murdered thousands if not millions of innocent people, especially there own, and yet all you complain about is Harley Quinn "murdering children" in her villains month issue (Detective Comics 23.2)? You people are pathetic. Getting back on topic, comic books, for ages, have always catered to men and boys. From what I've seen and read, female characters have often been reduced to being bimbos, damsels-in-distress, and villains. At best, they're supporting characters for male-dominated books. Harley Quinn is the very book modern audiences need. She's no longer Joker's punching bag, even if she is DC's Deadpool. Get your facts straight before you assume, and I know you know what is means to ASSUME!!!

    Let me remind you so-called "TRUE FANS" out there, that Harley Quinn in "INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US" was just as responsible for the nuking of Metropolis as the Joker was. Although she becomes an anti-hero "eventually," DOES NOT mean that she was NOT responsible for the MURDER of Innocent people you preach about: including CHILDREN!!! Why hasn't anyone complained about that?

    If BRUCE TIMM wanted to HONOR his DECEASED WIFE, he WILL allow DC to continue using the so-called "CLASSIC" COURT JESTER OUTFIT! Face it Bruce Timm. It's your own F-ing fault Harley Quinn got revamped in the first place you f-ing dumbass!!! If you truly hate the NEW 52, then allow the COURT JESTER costume to come back, you stupid banana head!!!
