Batman (2016) #100

the way it probably took him a second to find her after he abandoned Joker and chased after her. how the bomb evidently did detonate.

i'll ponder forever over how that moment went down and how he prevented the explosion from killing her, but not enough to save her from being severely injured & unconscious for a week recovering. how he spent hours at her bedside in case she happened to wake up that day, how he went to her hospital room on that day as well despite "I had to bury my father again today. I did it with my family." And having every beyond reasonable excuse to just not that day,,. he still made time and effort to check in on her.

the day dc treats harley's suicidal ideation as exactly what it is and let's the characters around her acknowledge it will be a glorious win for the community

#and the way i really doubt she's told Ivy she tried this #just like we've never seen her open up about contemplating suicide while in Arkham #like obvi i love harlivy but i really love that this is just an interlaced aspect of batquinn's dynamic #and the very real threat behind her like threatening to blow herself up or let clown hunter kill her. there's no joke there.#she's serious and there's no doubt in his mind about that anymore because he knows its something she's struggled with since the early days.#its not as if her situation has gotten infinitely better at these points either. its somewhat improved atm but this was before Ivy was back #she was still split and Harley was still alone.#she didnt meet Kevin until after the j0ker war arc & possibly the incident with clown hunter like #.... she really just had batman bruce was the only person who was going to check in on her most likely #she and selina are friends but i dont think their chapter of Catwoman's comic came out until after this #and thats where i'd more concretely say she'd have visited her.#just #batquinn yall when they're well written theyre a peak harley dynamic #and i will never be able to talk enough about them #harley quinn #harleen quinzel #dc comics #batman #bruce wayne #tw suicide #tw clown boy #mentioned at least
