Dr. Quinn Forensic Profiler
Ramble #17: Dr. Quinn Forensic Profiler
Well, it didn’t take long for me to get back to busy days at work but I did mange to read through this cool comic from DC.
Joker/Harley: Criminal Sanity #1
Kami Garcia, Mico Suayan, and Mike Mayhew. Published by DC Comics, 2019.
The solicit goes like this…
In Gotham City, where heinous acts of violence are a daily occurrence, the GCPD relies on Harley Quinn, a young forensic psychiatrist and profiler, to consult on their toughest cases. But Harley is haunted by one unsolved case-the night she discovered her roommate’s body marked with the signature of a notorious serial killer known as The Joker.
Five years later, the case remains unsolved and a new series of horrific murders occur throughout the city. As the murders escalate, Harley’s obsession with finding the depraved psychopath responsible leads her down a dangerous path. When the past and the present finally collide, Harley has to decide how far she is willing to go-and how many lines she is willing to cross-to solve these cases once and for all.
Written by #1 New York Times and international bestselling author Kami Garcia (co-author of Beautiful Creatures, author of Unbreakable and X-Files: Agents of Chaos) with art by Mico Suayan (Bloodshot: Reborn) and Mike Mayhew (The Star Wars), JOKER/HARLEY: CRIMINAL SANITY introduces readers to a Joker and Harley Quinn unlike any they’ve seen before, utilizing forensic psychiatry, behavior analysis (profiling) and psychological profiles to create a true-to-life take on these iconic characters that is more terrifying than any psychotic fantasy.
…and I recommend it as such…
Before Harley got her hammer she was a forensic psychiatrist and profiler who assisted the GCPD and her biggest obsession was the case where The Joker murdered her roommate. With beautiful art and a compelling story, this was a fun read as we watch Harley taking the steps that may or may not lead to her transformation. I’m eager to find out which it is.
I rate this issue a definitive Read.
