Roleplaying
The current story starts here.
So, yeah, of course the beautiful dream reality finally shows his evil sides. I’m sure you all suspected this already…
In fact Harley Quinn is one of my most beloved Batman enemies. She’s a hysteric manic, so what’s not to love? Of course she’s also one of these women who eternally chases a man that treats her like cow dung. But we do love characters because of their weaknesses too, don’t we? After all, she’s not supposed to be a role model anyway.
In my opinion, you can find the most beautiful and accurate depiction of her character in Harley Quinn: Preludes and Knock Knock Jokes by Terry Dodson&Karl Kesel. The art is just stunningly beautiful and the writing is very witty and very enjoyable. So, go for it, is my suggestion!:)
I always felt sorry for Harly Quinn.(Showing my batgeekyness I collected many hundreds of batman comic books just to figure out who Jason Todd was and where Robin / nightwing now the batman was.
Oh for goodness sake, shes an Artist! she wouldn’t be a *real* artist if she didn’t have an imagination. Its like when you teach kids to stay in the lines when they color, they lose something, the spark of creativity.
the fact that her elephant popped into her dreams, shows you she was aware of them, but something still was missing. She was destined to live with her pony. You can’t fight fate.

I actually can’t quite see him as the villan yet. He cares for her, and because he cares for her he doesn’t want her to be seeing things that could potentialy hurt her. Of course, I know we’re supposed to be like “IMAGINARY FRIENDS ARE OKAY”
but I’ve seen both sides of the extreme, and I know he could mean well.
ooooor not, since he chose the place with vultures. Loosing points there, man.
@Kath: Man, that’s why I shy away from monthly comic books like Batman. I’m just afraid I wouldn’t understand what happened in the last, uhm, 15 years I read the book…
About imagination: You’re guessing right here. When I was a kid I REALLY had an imaginary friend. Not only I drew comics starring him, but I would talk to him and we would play together. That sometime lead to irritated reactions in my surroundings. I met a classmate from elementary school just several years ago and he asked me how my imaginary friend was doing.:D But not everyone reacted that positively… I guess it’s my imaginary friend’s fault that I started drawing.:)
@Passerby: I agree. He’s not necessary a villain. Just wait and see!:)
(wonders whether to share the extrordinary tale of his imaginary friend and decides that even among this crowd, it’s probably not a good idea.)
Lovely weather we’re having on the internet today.
