Uh... Joker is surprisingly nice in this story. Actually holding back in his battle against Batman just so he can spare Harley's pets?
I'd call it OOC, but there are a bazillion different universes and AUs and Elsewords in comics, and as far as I know this story is not part of either DCAU nor mainstream DC comics. So I guess we can just assume Joker in Earth #34437768 truly loves Harley.
Was she really the latest in a long line of Harley-esque sidekicks, though, or was that just the Joker messing with her the same way he tortured everyone else on that night?
Not sure, man - I don't have that information in front of me.
It'd be easy enough to retcon it as that, although the multiple Harley theory would explain the difference between SuSquad Harley and Harley Quinn Harley.
