A Nice Harley Moment:: Her First Day in Arkham

[espanolbot]

From Paul Dini’s Detective Comics run, in which Harley is being taken back to Arkham after being broken out (against her will) by Scarface and Sugar to commit a robbery for them.

 

Bruce had denied her parole application earlier in the day, so he’s kind of confused that Harley took the first opportunity to immediately double cross Scarface, inform the cops what was going on, foil the robbery and willing come back to Arkham after the whole thing was over. Particularly since betraying a fellow member of the Gothamite Supervillain Club is kind of against her thing (she’s friends with most of them, see)…









And thus Harley was free, and remained so for some years until she went evil again at the end of Gotham Sirens or something.

Her solo series expanded on her actually being goo at her job, but her feeling that she needed to sleep with her tutor to secure her grade (guy was kind of a skuzzbucket).

The Harley of the Arkham games is kind of different character, as she's meant to be comic relief for the most part, so she isn't treated as seriously as some of the other characters. This changes in the post-Arkham City DLC though, when she goes utterly nuts.
