“Black, White Knight, and Red”
From the pages of Sean Murphy’s BATMAN: WHITE KNIGHT, a sneak peek at the upcoming spinoff series BATMAN: WHITE KNIGHT PRESENTS HARLEY QUINN! Harley looks back on the night of her first arrest by Batman. In the heat of one of her earliest escapades with the Joker, Harley’s high spirits are tanked and she gets a cold glimpse of the chaos to come when violence escalates and their heist is crashed by Batman and Robin. Forced to save face or take the high road, Harley makes a choice that will cement her unspoken bond with Batman for years to come.

It's not a secret I adore White Knight series, ever since I've read the first issue for the very first time. And aside from reinventing the Batman mythos in a unique (albeit not so fresh on the first glance) way, as well as looking like nothing else on the shelves, these comics managed to make me fall in love with Harley all over again, just like in the good old Batman: The Animated Series times. Murphy made her interesting again, after years of being a shallow and annoying Mary Sue, and he made her compelling, fleshed out, human, so much so she became the heart and soul of White Knight. Heck, you could say she is THE White Knight of the story.
At this point when I see Murphy's name or art on the cover of anything Batman, you bet I'm g more
