Punchline is now a blorbo and I hate literally 99% of every single comic she's been in. God, somebody please help me
#ughhhhhhhhhhhh#i hate literally everything about why she exists as a character and much of it relies on a complete misinterpretation of Harley's character#but GOD THE SHEER POTENTIAL SHE HAS#the whole “i'm going to take advantage of being a cute college student and make a crying youtube apology video” vibe she has is so funny#i love how she's reads like a parody of “Society Bad” Joker fans#I love that her backstory isn't a carbon copy of Harley's backstory#I love that her second meeting with the Joker involves her literally stabbing him in the shoulder#but GOD why did she have to be Joker's Sexy Goth College Student Girlfriend?????#there's SO many alternative angles you could have gone with!!!!#she could've been the Anti-Robin instead of the Anti-Harley!!!!!!#she has so much interesting ideas in her one-shot that don't get explored#she's trying so hard to find a hidden message in the Joker after being subjected to a traumatizing hostage situation#she's canonically a weird true crime junkie#but we barely get any information on WHY she's like this!!!#she's a weird nihilist that wants to burn society to the ground but WHY????#does she have a bad home life? was she bullied?#she feels like a first draft of a much more potentially interesting character#and her get stuck as Replacement Girlfriend is such a waste of more interesting dynamics#we could've had a twisted spin on the Batman and Robin quasi-parent/child bond!!!!#she should've been Joker's awful murder daughter and I will absolutely fight people on this!!!!!
