Speaking of future, Harley Quinn would later have a cameo in the Batman Beyond movie, scolding her teenage daughters for dressing up as clowns and joining a gang. So, you're not going to look into this, Batman?Īlongside that, it was also heavily implied that Harley was just going to use the Joker for fame and fortune, since she only passed her college exams by seducing her professor in a dark foreshadowing of her future with the Joker. Or even the original scene of Batman bringing in Joker, which seems to open up a plot hole. Though it worked in a nice reference to the Crystals. Or the original ending, which manages to be even more horrifying. I love how that bird's hitting the edge of the thought bubble. Or Harley's fantasies of her wedded bliss with the Joker. Of course, there are a few differences here and there, like the Joker's thoughts as he drives off. The whole story was adapted wholesale from Paul Dini and Bruce Timm's graphic novel "Mad Love."Įven Frank Miller's still sane enough to like it.Īs far as adaptations go, it's almost 100% accurate. No more of the subtext from "Harley and Ivy" and "Harlequinade." This time, it's the A-plot. And the answer is exactly as horrifying as you would expect. This episode finally answers why Harley Quinn stays with the Joker. I find myself in the position of having to come up with something to say about "Mad Love" other than "It's perfect."
