InThe Joker : demise of the Familystory“Tease ” by Scott Snyder , James Tynion IV , and Jock , the Joker kidnaps Harley and admit her to a dark location where he tell apart her that she is nothing without him , that he create her , and that he was n’t done with her even though she made it clear that she was done with him . The Joker told Harley that he postulate to cut off her fount so that she could better mull his twisted image . Harley is reluctant , but fall back into the one-time pattern of abuse , asks if it will hurt as if she is considering his forbidding proposal . The Joker says that it will , and that the worst part will be how dry her eyes get after he cuts off the chapeau . As if to bring up a hopeful side to the mutilation , the Joker tells Harley that during the process , so much blood will be spilling into her eyes that they wo n’t see sobriety , and her world will be plunge in a red tint . Harley , being completely freaked out at this decimal point , vehemently disdain what the Joker wants to do , but Joker plainly laughs and knocks her unconscious . When she wakes up , she feel no pain , but she sees nothing but ruby-red , indicating that the Joker went through with the procedure . However , he assure Harley that he did n’t cut her facial expression off , The Joker   just put his renowned blood-red hoodover her principal and made her believe he had mutilated her , laughing maniacally throughout the explanation .

While there wasno actual panel during this shot , the Joker ’s " jokeis still right smart too dark to seem in any DCEU movie for a number of grounds . The care the Joker make while severalize Harley Quinn all about how he was going to turn out her face off , how it would feel and what she would experience , is intemperate to tolerate and is truly troubling specially given how vulnerable Harley Quinn is throughout , both physically and mentally . Plus , the tone of Harley Quinn that is depict in the DCEU is nothing like what this comic depicts . DCEU ’s Harley is a fun and shining anti - hero whose insanity only adds to her charm , and this conniption is way too coloured and twist for that variant of the theatrical role to feel .

While two out of the threeDCEU movies Harley Quinn has appeared inhave been rated radius , they are more geared towards adults because of the films ’ explicit speech and excessive comedic force . This disturbing joke draw by theJokeris on a whole other level of fear , handling , and abuse , and does n’t accommodate the tone rig by the moving picture version ofHarley Quinnin the slightest as it is far too dire for theDCEU .
