Harleen Makes the New York Times Best Sellers List!
The New York Times has released its March 15 list of best-selling books and DC is proud to announce that Harleen has made the prestigious New York Times best-seller list in the Graphic Books and Manga category. Described by CBR as “A haunting modernization of a classic tale…” and AiPT.com praising the series as “…a masterpiece of a Harley Quinn Story” this hardcover collects writer/artist Stjepan Šejić’s three issue series, re-imagining Dr. Harleen Quinzel’s descent into madness and transformation into Harley Quinn, including her seductively dangerous romance with The Joker.
