Goofy was kind of the point.

uh.....Ok I love Harley Quinn and I've actually been enjoying GCS a lot.I too was one of the people who complained about her look in AA and the comic one looks even worse.Thing Harley has always had a bubbly personality.She isn't suppose to be a "Fetish Chick" that isn't what her character is about.Is she obsessed with Joker?Yes but that doesn't mean she dresses ****ish.In fact her behavior is the opposite of that seeing as she is so blindly dedicated to one man instead of messing around with several.Unlike Poison Ivy or even Catwoman, Harley never really was a sexualized character. I don't know where that idea first came up maybe Azzarello's Joker but I just don't think the redesign fits her character.Unless and I wouldn't doubt they completely change her to fit that design.

 

[HamelinGraphix]

If they do change her completely, many people will be pissed.

 

[venom892]

I don't even know why they felt the need to change the costume.Feels like change just for the sake of change.Also has it been confirmed whether or not it's Zatanna on the JLD cover?If so I'm not feeling her redesign either.

It's a relaunch/revamp. Her costume is like the 1st thing they should/would change.

 

[The Morningstar]

So I ask, is Cass Cain being retconned into nothingness?

And is Suicide Squad gonna have the characters from Secret Six? Or is it the old Suicide Squad team?

 

[venom892]

Yea But some of these costume redesigns seem unnecessary.For example I think Superman having no undies is a good change while the endless seams and armored seems like change just for the hell of it.I mean why would Superman even need armor?

 

[hippie_hunter]

With WildStorm merging into the DC Universe, wouldn't it make sense to have the Authority, WildC.A.T.S., and Gen13 to be the titles as opposed to solo titles for Grifter and Voodoo?

 

[NongEyeGong]

And is Suicide Squad gonna have the characters from Secret Six? Or is it the old Suicide Squad team?

Was wondering the same thing myself. I'm excited though and I really don't mind Harley's new look, I'm sure we haven't seen the last of her old costume. Although, I was puzzled that there is only her, King Shark and Deadshot thus far in the new Suicide Squad but I assume there will be more members to come.

I just can't help but wonder what's to be of the Secret Six since it's one of my favorite DC titles and all.

Regardless, big kudos for bringing in King Shark, I really love what Gail Simone did with him in Secre Six.

 

[X Knight]

I'm just disappointed that there's no sign of Raven.

Wasn't WB trying to do a Raven tv series to replace Smallville?

this relaunch would have been the perfect opportunity to relaunch the character and increase her exposure to a wider audience......

 

[Colossal Spoons]

She's been pretty 1-dimensional for a while though. All she's done is teleport the team around and lead Beast Boy on.

 

[venom892]

Can anyone Confirm for me whether that's Zatanna in JLD?I read Milligan's interview on newsarama and he doesn't even mention her.

 

[Sawyer]

I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

 

[Mr. Earle]

We dont know yet. Also, just because a character doesnt get a book it doesnt mean that they dont exist. Cass didnt have a book for a few years now anyway. Besides she's Black Bat in Inc so maybe they ll do something with her once Morrison is done with her.

Can anyone Confirm for me whether that's Zatanna in JLD?I read Milligan's interview on newsarama and he doesn't even mention her.

We dont know but that's probably her.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Yeah, I'm more disappointed that having 50-bajillion Bat-titles and so many pointless titles like Frankenstein: Agent of S.H.A.D.E., I, Vampire, Justice League Dark, Resurrection Man, and O.M.A.C., kind of get in the way of much better ideas such as a new Captain Marvel book, or Plastic Man, or Martian Manhunter, or maybe some more WildStorm or Milestone titles.

 

[Watchman]

How are they pointless books? I'm looking forward to those more than anything else they've announced.

well.......all the more reason to relaunch and revitalize the character.....

 

[Kurosawa]

No JSA book is either my biggest disappointment or my biggest relief. I'm glad there's no Captain Marvel book. I wish DC would never use the Marvels ever again since they have no clue as to what they are about and why they are so awesome.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

But the Martian Manhunter is on Stormwatch now! Hurray! No one could possibly have a problem with that, knowing who and what Stormwatch is and who and what J'onn is!

Although I am a bit interested in Resurrection Man getting his own comic. I liked him in the One Million stuff.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Because if I had to choose, I'd rather read a book about the Martian Manhunter than Resurrection Man. Or Captain Marvel over I, Vampire.

 

[TheIncredibleSk]

They make be pointless to you, But a at least 7 thousand other people dont think it's a pointless book.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Where does that number come from?

 

[SuperFerret]

Well over seven thousand people are fans of Harry Potter, I still think it's an abortion.
