Harley Quinn's Mother Gets Villain Codename and Costume

Harley Quinn's entire character lore has apparently gone completely off the rails lately at DC. The redesign's already dramatic enough, but now DC's officially introduced Harley's mom as a full-fledged supervillain with her own codename and costume. It's a move that either represents bold creative expansion or desperate character mining—depends who you ask. The fact that this family connection is becoming central to Batman's overhauled narrative suggests DC's doubling down on making Harley way more important to Gotham's ecosystem than ever before.
