So is harley back to killing innocent people at random just to make a point?

I despair of supervillain jails which don't arm their staff to deal with breakouts byt y'know... supervillains, with powers and stuff.

Equip them with the weapons confiscated from villains, and have a couple of sorcerors on staff.

In all fairness, in the issue itself there's the heavy implication that someone's playing Slade against Waller.

Oh, and Rosebud is his sled.

Yeah, I mean, this reads like Harley doesn't actually know what he's talking about, and is just smart enough to play along with the crazy guy and help send him after Waller.

Because the moment she says something Slade doesn't want to hear, in the state of mind he's in right now he'll gut her before he realizes she's telling the truth.

The characterization of Harley Quinn is kind of the one spot where the "DCYou" approach to loosened continuity doesn't work at all, because we've got her playing the wacky/lovable Deadpool-style rogue in her own series, but then whenever she comes up in relation to the Suicide Squad she'll a deranged mass murderer.

Except even in her own series she's been known to violently kill innocent people on occasion.

I don't know.based on these scans, I prefer her Suicide Squad persona over her own series. I like that it keeps the funny aspect of her character, but lets you know that she is deranged. I like that fact that in this series she kinda owns up to what she is. Yeah she is funny and can be lovable, but she is dangerous. Just because the Joker is not around, does not mean she should not be in Arkham.
