13 Times Harley Quinn Was An Independent Woman Who Didn't Need No Joker
Ever since her first appearance in "Batman: The Animated Series," Harley Quinn's become just as much of a household name as Robin, Batgirl, or other supporting characters in the Bat Family -- and that now she's even getting a huge role in Warner Brother's upcoming "Suicide Squad" movie, it won't be long before everyone's head over heels for Harley!
Of course, despite her popularity Quinn's always been a controversial and even tragic character due to her super abusive relationship with the Joker. But there's more to her than her dependence on the Dark Knight's biggest nemesis, especially now that she has her own self-titled comic book series about living in New York and trying to go straight. Here's proof that Harley can hold her own with the best of 'em, and have fun doing it.
