DC’s Harley Quinn comic book series enters a new era as writer Joanne Starer (Dinner Date) and artist Lukas Ketner (Batman – Santa Claus: Silent Knight Returns) are taking Harley from Brooklyn to France in a new story that finds her living with two terrible roommates, traveling abroad with a forged Justice League ID, assembling an unlikely crew of super-powered individuals, and attempting the most Harley Quinn-esque caper imaginable: stealing the Mona Lisa from the Louvre. And as if that isn’t enough trouble, an international cadre of assassins is after Harley’s head.

Before Harley can take Paris, however, Harley Quinn #71 has some unfinished business closer to home, including haunting childhood memories, an adult bat mitzvah, and one very important question: If you invite Batman to a bat mitzvah, does he have to show up?

And Harley’s problems aren’t confined to France. She stole something from the Eraser, and now he’s out to erase her. The new story will also bring back longtime Harley ally Sy Borgman.

Joanne Starer on who Harley Quinn is:

“At her core, Harley is basically a little kid who desperately wants love, attention, and approval,” said “Sometimes she acts out, because even negative attention is attention.

But deep down, she just wants someone to be proud of her.”

“In Paris, she’s not a sidekick. She’s not a girlfriend. She’s out to make a name for herself as an individual so the world will take her seriously,

It’s a new city, a new adventure, and a new storyline.”

Harley Quinn #71, publishing on February 24 publishing on February 24, written by Joanne Starer with art by Lukas Ketner and Dave McCaig and a main cover by David Nakayama, will also feature variant covers by Yona, Nimit Malavia, and Khary Randolph.
