Origin[]
Harley Quinn is a fictional character, a supervillian in the DC Universe. The character was introduced on September 11, 1992, in Batman: The Animated Series and later adapted into DC Comics' Batman comic books, first appearing in The Batman Adventures #12 (September 1993). As suggested by her name (a play on the word "harlequin"), she is clad in the manner of a traditional harlequin jester. The character is a frequent accomplice and the girlfriend of Batman's nemesis the Joker, and is also close to Poison Ivy, from whom she gained her immunity to poisons and toxins.
The character was created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm and was originally voiced by Arleen Sorkin in Batman: The Animated Series and its tie-ins. The character was voiced by Hynden Walch in The Batman animated series. In the Birds of Prey series, she was portrayed by actress Mia Sara and, in an unaired version of the pilot episode, by Sherilyn Fenn. Throughout her animated depictions, she is shown to speak with a pronounced Brooklyn accent.
IGN's 2009 list of the Top 100 Comic Book Villains of All Time ranked Harley Quinn as #45. She was ranked 16th in Comics Buyer's Guide's "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list.
Effects[]
The mallet can change size as it is used, from the size of a regular construction hammer when 'holstered' to the size of a freezer chest while it is being swung. Despite the evident change in mass and weight, the holder seems to suffer no difficulty wielding it. Also increases flexibility toan untested degree, though certainly enough to put some Olympic gymnasts to shame. In excange for the destructive power and flexibility provided, the user also becomes mentally unhinged and will explode into a rage over petty annoyances. An obesessive bond is also formed with the wielder of Joker's BANG! Revolver.
