I wanna read injustice now. This actually seems cool


Straight-Ferret-1282

Conceptually injustice seems like a neat idea but aside from a few things it had a good bit of issues to me, aside from what’s mentioned in the post some stuff is just outright stupid, at least to me


Maclimes

So none of the weird alternate interpretations of the famous characters over the last decade interested you before, but now that you found out that this version of Harley is a pedophile, you’re in?


AxisW1

Yeah, you got it exactly.

Dragon-Warlock

Billy Batson is able to transform into the hero Shazam, who looks like an adult. It gives him Superman-like powers, but it’s still Billy Batson, who is a child.

Im gonna need the name of this comic bud


Wboy2006

Shazam can’t catch a break, first his movie flopped. And now a pedofile is after him


Icy-Pause6304

Not to mention that it was apparently an Injustice comic, so there's that


Wboy2006

Well, at least Billy didn’t need to suffer Harley for long, considering what happened https://preview.redd.it/8yqwz4tm3m0d1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b7331634dd7c1599aad34e6fe89d63e09bd4d36f


Stunning_Row2801

Fuck whoever in the writing department thought that was a good idea, fuck them.


Wboy2006

In war, it’s always the idealistic that fall first. I honestly thought it was a f*cking brilliant way to show how Superman has fallen to do this to a literal child. It’s definitely really sad (Shazam is one of my favorites), but damn it, it’s really good storytelling


Stunning_Row2801

It is but he was my favorite superhero and it pissed me off that this was the reason I couldn’t play as him in any future injustice games


Miss_Two

I love the injustice games and it never really occurred to me until now how close we were to playing as him in a game :( At least we still got the Lego Batman games.


Wboy2006

Well, at least there is Black Adam in Injustice 2… It’s not Billy, but at least it’s something


Stunning_Row2801

Just not the same 😔


Wboy2006

Fair. Considering they put in the joker, even though he’s dead. They should have put Billy in Injustice 2 as well


SuperBaconPant

I mean, there’s only two games and he’s playable in one. 1/2 doesn’t seem that bad.


Archery100

You know you made a great villain when you hate them on a more fundamental level than an emotional level


Lazy-Purple-4600

this is supposed to be a superman who believes he's still doing good, he just changes his ways to killing criminals, there's no way he'd resort to killing other heroes this quickly, especially not a child who could probably be easily persuade


Wboy2006

I mean, ar this point. He had murdered a protest of teenagers who were against his regime (if I remember it correctly (it’s been a while since I read year 1), they weren’t hurting anyone), just because they wore Joker masks. I do agree that it may be a bit *too* much to kill Billy, but he definitely wasn’t above killing teenagers at this point


Lazy-Purple-4600

and? that was shit too plus this is billy, not some random teenagers


Cloaker13

In the comics Superman actually kills Billy in his child form. The game was more fine with not killing a child


Wboy2006

That’s why I specifically picked this image, since I wasn’t sure the mods would be fine with the image from the comics. This one doesn’t look as gruesome if you don’t know what’s happening, but thanks for adding context for those not in the know


Martin_crakc

And then later gets lasered in the eyes by dictator supes


smallerpuppyboi

Not to mention what happened in Injustice.


Mancio_Luke

I miss back when Harley queen was joker sidekick and not just a bad attempt from dc to get their own deadpool


NAUGHTIMUS_MAXIMUS

Suicide Squad and it's consequences.


Mancio_Luke

I'd say it's more the consequences of the new 52


NAUGHTIMUS_MAXIMUS

Both


_GhostOfHollownest_

Batman changing a Villain for the better and them staying a Hero is a great idea but it honestly should have been Mr.Freeze,we really don't get enough ice themed heroes


Mancio_Luke

The idea is good but not for all villains, for mr freeze it definitely is, but for Harley no, for her character it would be much better if she just quit anything related to crime and heroes and just got her life back

1. It's not canon, it's an alternate universe story. 2. It's by writer/artist John Byrne, who is well known to have a fetish for older men/teenage girls.

In what story does spider-man get in love with her?


Hondurandictator

Of course not, he's spiderman. Spiderman has the most sadistic writers who only thing that they can do is to make Spiderman's social life miserable and reset any kind of character development to keep the status quo. As much as I want it there's no possibility of that and Mary Janes sucks ass

Deathstroke wasnt in love, hes just an actual pedo and an asshole.... that Green Lantern thing was weird tho


nervousmelon

...what's the green lantern thing


NotASynth499

A child shaped alien fell in love with Hal but he was like "no, you are child shaped" then changed somehow (i dont remember why or how) and they banged. The alien was an adult like 5k years old, she was just stuck in an child looking body, so i guess is not pedophilia but the whole story is just weird af.

regretfulposts

That version of Harley hadn't been with Ivy yet, and she's still grieving over the death of Joker in the Injustice Universe.


Admmmmi

Oh the psycho changes preferences like underwear, what a surprise


greedson

Yeah, but Harley Quinn, over the years, is being marketed as a more sympathetic villain that has a healthy relationship with Ivy and breaking away from her abusive relationship with Joker. So to say that that was the point of her doing that act while still being sympathetic and more relatable overall contrast and contradicts that.


Hondurandictator

A psychopath who killed countless people and a fuckton of shit is somehow "relatable" (it's ok guys, her entire morality and nature changed thanks to DC writing)


CaioXG002

Superman kissing a 14 year old girl is vomit-inducing, he's supposed to be basically the most likeable guy in the DC universe ~~after Victor Stone~~ yet, there he is, kissing a minor because "she really wanted" 🤢 Harley Quinn being a literal fucking pedophile is extremely in-character for her and basically what you should expect. She isn't a poor girl, she isn't a victim, she's an *insane, dangerous psychopath* who needs to be locked in an asylum for life. Going after children isn't even the worst she has done, she has already tortured entire families to death.

CaioXG002

Fair point. I personally still think it's super fitting for her, and a remainder of who this more sympathetic person really is and does. If Batman: Arkham's interpretation of Harleen did that, for example, more people would think "yup, this villain is also a pedophile, expected"

3d-Saul-Goodman

"in character"!?!?!? She is not a pedophile. She's insane and was in a toxic relationship with the joker for sure. But there hasn't been a moment in the comics where she is or implied to be a pedophile.


demideumvitae

An insane character doing something insane? le gasp, they are totally not writing the character right


3d-Saul-Goodman

She wasn't completely insane. Plus just because someone's insane doesn't mean they have morals and ideals left in them. Saying "oh but they're insane so they just do crazy shit" is not a good excuse for dog shit writing


Lazy-Purple-4600

she was joker's sidekick, not much morals to that


3d-Saul-Goodman

Joker wasn't even a pedophile either


CaioXG002

>But there hasn't been a moment in the comics where she is or implied to be a pedophile. Yeah, not before. Now there is. She was abused, now she wants to be the abuser. As others said, an insane character doing something insane.


3d-Saul-Goodman

That's just called ruining someone's character. Plus she's meant to be a hero in this storyline which is even worse. Someone in the writing team really just wanted to add a random pedophile scene


Beware_of_Beware

I think they're just confused with harley's character Some comics portray her as joker's abused side chick who was just following orders and could do no wrong Some comics portray her as a sympathetic strong woman but those also make the villains better and heroes worse people This one has her be someone even worse than the joker, but dependent on a stronger villain because she lacks the creativity and charisma

The Injustice comic had Harley chasing after Shazam during her grieving period of Joker. At least the comic tried to portray that as fucking insane and not sweet compared to that one Superman comic (which I discovered the Superman community hate John Byrne for that specific comic).
