Harleen Quinzel was a psychiatric intern at Arkham Asylum. While researching the lunatics at Arkham, she became fascinated with the Joker, volunteering to analyze him. After he gained her sympathy during their sessions, he seduced her, causing her to fall madly in love with him.

After a falling out with the Joker, Harley Quinn went into a murderous frenzy, directed towards people responsible for the Joker's imprisonment. Captured by Black Canary, she was forcibly inducted into the Suicide Squad by Amanda Waller. It is eventually revealed that she no longer wears face paint, and that her bleached skin is now part of a permanent condition. She also seems to be attracted to Deadshot. Despite having no powers at all, she proves to be a valuable asset to the Squad, though she is easily the most mentally unstable.

When she discovers that the Joker is rumored to be dead, it takes a further toll in her already addled mind, and betraying the Suicide Squad, she puts their safety at risk by turning herself into the Gotham Police Department in a plot to gain access to the skinned face of the Joker.
