Suicide Squad #7: Harley's DCnU Origin Conclusion

[aeka]

And....that was rather predictable.

Also, considering how the rest of the book played out, I have to ask...who at DC has woman issues to the extent of needing to commit all kinds of acts of violence against female characters, including established ones like Harley Quinn (and Lois Lane and the rest of the Amazons on Earth-2 for that matter)? Jesus fucking Christ man, you need therapy whoever you are.

Between this issue and the last I'm glad this isn't a regular title on my pull list.

Note that this acid doesn't do any damage to Harley's skin, only "bleaching it".
So she can still look sexy while kissing the joker or posing around in those last panels, not looking like someone totally disfigured by chemical products.

Joker's skin looks perfectly fine too, so

Not usually, when drawn accordingly ->

But perhaps that is another New 52 retcon :P

I dunno, I think his skin is more often a perfect white than not. Even in that pic up there he's got a load of wrinkles, but his skin itself seems undamaged.

I tried GISing Joker to check, but I just got a load of Heath Ledger pictures, haha.

The Joker has always, apart from a few images or one-off stories, been shown to have perfectly normal skin, it's just that it's white. If anything his skin is usually shown as approaching the glossy, though one can imagine him using a bit of make-up to enhance that, showman that he is.

I didn't think it was acid. I thought it was some random chemicals

I also thought Joker Venom was supposed to be the same stuff, which means he should be Jokerizing people, not killing them
