Joker
line : This clause contains minor plunderer forBatman : White Knight#2

For the DC rooter who think theoriginalHarley Quinn was the honorable rendering ever , we ’ve arrest near news program : the classic Harley is BACK . That ’s the tease being offered ahead of this week’sBatman : snowy Knight#2 , the comic series unveil how Gotham City might switch ifThe Joker was finally curedof his insanity … and his obsession with Batman . Writer / Artist Sean Murphy had antecedently predict that his series would be a love varsity letter toBatman : The Animated Series , and a treat for Harley fans in particular . And not just because the first graphics showed a similarly - cured Harley Quinn with an betrothal hoop on her finger , either .
The first issuance ofWhite Knightends withJoker– good-for-naught , Jack Napiercutting a deal for his freedom , having discovered a miracle medicament that could banish his ' Joker ' persona entirely . With a serious typesetter’s case against the Gotham Police thanks to Batman ’s barbarism , his exemption and follow drive to expose Batman as therealmenace seem assured . Now , it looks like the Joker wo n’t just be getting his sanity back - he ’ll be getting his " Puddin ' , " too .
The first Thomas Nelson Page ofWhite Knight#2 releasing November 1st have been previewed ( hat lead toDen of Geek ) , showing Joker ’s return to Harley Quinn . clearly , Harley is a little hesitating to believe that Joker could really be cure , recognise him with demands to get his face painted back in white , and to embrace the insanity that defines her darling boyfriend . When Joker pops the question , making salutary on Murphy ’s promise that the abusive Joker / Harley moral force was over … things go terribly .
Harley meets his proposal with a kick to the stomach , and an insistence that he isher"puddin ' " - not the other way around . It ’s at this tip that we should clarify : the Harley Quinn he ’s meeting is the current comic book variant in station at DC . Basically the same one that ’s been around since DC ’s New 52 , sporting the curt shortstop , high boots , and t - shirt made popular for years , admit theSuicide Squadmovie . But she ’s not alone with Joker …
As the preview pages show , Harley ’s refusal and derision of the recovered Joker– sorry , Jack(that ’s go to be grueling to get used to ) is met with a fleet kick of her own . But the foot that kicks her is delivered by a small disgraceful horseshoe at the goal of a fitted red pegleg . And the hired man that reaches down for the involution ring - as she clarifies that SHE is the " Puddin ' " Jack ’s after - sports the classic red / black color strategy , white-hot wrist ruffle and all .
Going by this preview , it appears that Murphy ’s promise of the ' classic ' Harley Quinn was far more literal than most would await . White Knightis set outside of DC ’s main comic book continuity ( as much as that ever matters ) , so there ’s no need for Murphy to work the frenzied , raw and improve , modern Harley into the story at all . If that ruffled wrist mean that the classic , original Harley introduce inBatman : The Animated Seriesis co - existing alongside her thymine - shirted counterpart … then the continuity dubiousness gets even rich . spud has been open in the past about usingWhite Knightto destination , if not fix perceived problems with the Joker / Batman dynamic ( as he in person sees them ) . Apparently , that stretch forth not only to Joker ’s abusive family relationship with Harley , but the character that Harley has become in late years .
trope
From the expression of it , Batman : White Knightjust became a must - translate comedian for the Harley fans who prefer their Quinn in a red and disastrous Jester bodysuit , make love the human race that Joker is underneath his psychosis , notbecauseof it ( something she actually shares with the DCEU picture show version ) . But that seems to be the baksheesh of the iceberg for Murphy ’s story , as the writer / artist presently took to Twitter to share the above pages , while also warning that Harley and Joker will NOT be catch a " romantic " wedding . Some riding habit die harder than others , it seems .
Are you thrilled to see the Graeco-Roman Harley Quinn ’s rejoinder being teased as part of Joker ’s own return to sanity inWhite Knight ? Or are you holding off on skip that the pair might actually get their happy ending , after all ? DC Comics has folded ' Elseworld ' stories and character into their canyon before , as Murphy has point out more than once . So if the response to Harley ’s return is a vocal one … she might just be back for good .
Batman : White Knight#2will be available on November 1 , 2017 .
