About the series
In this three-issue DC Black Label series from 2019–2020, writer and artist Stjepan Šejić reimagines the tragic origin of Dr. Harleen Quinzel, long before she becomes the Joker’s accomplice. Set against the gritty backdrop of Gotham City, the story centers on a brilliant psychiatrist whose professional ambition and personal vulnerabilities lead her down a dark, obsessive path. Šejić’s lush, expressive artwork and nuanced character work elevate this into a poignant psychological drama that explores how love and madness can intertwine. A standout addition to the Harley Quinn mythos, Harleen offers a deeply humanizing take on a fan-favorite villain.
