The doc to die for is back with these freakishly good Harley Quinn cosplays.

DC doesn’t do much right these days, as evidenced by the recent flops with multiple movies in their cinematic universe. 2016’s Suicide Squad was a nightmare of botched editing and scrapped plot lines… with some questionable costuming choices to boot. Margot Robbie shines above the mess to showcase the fabulousness that is Harley Quinn in the recent movies, and this week, we’re celebrating the best of Harley Quinn comics cosplay!

With ‘Birds of Prey‘, ‘The Suicide Squad’ and the ridiculously good ‘Harley Quinn’ animated series, Harley Quinn’s return to the limelight is cemented. The 2020 movie is an epic comeback story for the character, launching Robbie into the spotlight and showing how powerful Harley Quinn can be on her own. Margot is advocating to get more of Harley’s story (let’s keep our fingers crossed for a HarleyxIvy kiss!!!) on screen. Yes please!

Harley Quinn in Cosplay

Dr. Harleen Quinzel is easily one of the most visible characters in DC cosplay fandom. When you do a simple search for ‘Batman Cosplay’, the results are overwhelmingly filled with the crazy clown lady, and not so much with Bats himself. She has been showcased in comics, movies, animated shows and video games, each with their own costume and characteristic witty repartee. Harley Quinn one of the most recognizable and highly cosplayed characters in Gotham.

Each new iteration of Harley’s iconic two-toned look and over-the-top makeup capture audiences anew, leading to a flurry of cosplay builds of all skill levels. Harley is one of the most-seen cosplays to walk convention floors, appear in photoshoots, and randomly troll convention-goers.

“Number one, no one is like me. If you wanted to even come close, you would have to go to medical school. Become a psychiatrist. Work in an asylum. Fall in love with your patient. Break said patient out of said asylum. Begin a life of crime. Jump into a vat of chemicals to prove yourself to a madman. Get arrested by the Batman. Go back to jail. Get out of jail with a bomb on your neck. Save the world, go back to jail, and break out of jail before breaking up with the aforementioned madman, and going out on your own.”
