Suicide Squad's Harley Quinn, Joker's GF, Dominates February With Valentine's Day 2015 Special #1!
The Joker's ex-girlfriend, the clown princess of crimes, Harley Quinn is dominating the month of February. Celebrating Harley Month in 2015, DC Entertainment is giving the Suicide Squad member something to look forward to in Harley Quinn Valentine's Day #1 Special.
If you remember the Batman: Animated Series, then you know Paul Dini created a female sidekick for the Joker based on Arleen Sorkin, a former star of the soap opera, Days Of Our Lives. In a dream sequence, Sorkin wore a jester costume. Bubbly and psychotic at the same time, Harley Quinn carries gag-themed weaponry, just to make her "puddin" feel extra special.
As we previously mentioned, when the government has a mission too hot for the DC Comics superheroes to handle, they send in the bad guys to take care of the business. In a plot reminiscent of The Dirty Dozen, if the Suicide Squad - which includes the captured band of super-villains Harley Quinn, Deadshot, and Captain Boomerang - survives their deadly mission, their prison sentence will then be reduced.
While we wait to see Harley Quinn up on the big screen portrayed by Margot Robbie (Wolf of Wall Street) in writer/director David Ayer (End of Watch)'s action/heist flick, Cupid is going to lose his turf, wings, and red arrows for V-Day. To kick things off, DC is launching Harley Quinn's own Facebook page, where you can garb 5 free digital downloads of Harley Quinn #14 every day for the next two weeks, and a Harley Hub page.
In addition, DC is orchestrating a variety of special activities all month long and a wonderful Harley Quinn/Joker Kiss Statue.

Harley Quinn Valentine's Day #1 Special will be out in stores on February 11.
