NO WOMAN'S JOKE

Harley Quinn was around quite a bit in the media since her introduction in Batman: The Animated Series and certainly she was been on the tie-in comic title published by DC Comics, but that wasn't considered "canon" per se, until this special one-shot was published during the Batman event known as No Man's Land.

Being written by Paul Dini, one of Harley's "dads", it's a very compelling origin in the official DC Comics universe, changing some stuff from her "animated" origin in Mad Love, but still keeping her psychological medical title backgroung, her insane fascination for The Joker, her relationship with Poison Ivy, and even as a curious thing, in both origins, the "animated" and this one at hand, Harley is able to beat knocked-out Batman.

In the middle of the chaos of the No Man's Land situation, Dr. Harleen Quinzel rises to become canonical part of the DC universe, turning into her Harley Quinn persona...

...and Gotham City has never been the same since then!

It got better!
