The repellent jokePeacemakermade aboutSupermanand his rumored desire may have secretly descend fromHarley Quinn . Peacemaker and Harley Quinn briefly worked together in the DCEU filmThe Suicide Squadbefore Peacemaker spun - off into his own HBO MAX serial publication . Both antihero were brought in against their will to root for off a top - hush-hush delegacy for Amanda Waller . While the two did n’t share much screen time in the movie , they very well may have had at least one off - screen moment correctly where Harley share this “ fact ” about Superman , as one comic confirms she has thesame estimate about the Man of Steel as Peacemaker .

InHarley Quinn and the Birds of Prey#1 by Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti , Harley is daydream about the tropical vacation she recently took with Poison Ivy . In her ambition , Superman is there and he is acting as their server in exchange for some info Harley has that is obviously integral in saving the life of his long - time friend , Jimmy Olsen .

As Superman is approaching the two with a tray of drinks , Harley Quinn calls out to him , addressing Superman as Pooperman . This comment could be just an immature play on Superman ’s moniker base on rhyme scheme , though it ’s a little too on - the - olfactory organ for Superman in particular given Peacemaker ’s disgusting claim . Harley Quinn seems to link up Superman with poop , just as Peacemaker did in his hot - action serial publication , giving one suspension to enquire if it was n’t Harley herself whogave Peacemaker that selective information .

While their time together was brief , Harley Quinn and Peacemaker were in the same place with ample downtime at one stage inThe Suicide Squad . After the squad kidnapped the Thinker , right before using him to infiltrate the supervillain ’s readiness , the Suicide Squad evidence him every killable offence he could commit before hold back for the correct sentence to affect under the covering of rain . During this fourth dimension , it is possible that Harley Quinn could have told Peacemaker that Superman has a stern fetish , and yield Peacemaker ’s credulousness , confirm in the Peacemaker series , it would make sense that he would believe her on boldness - note value .

In thePeacemakerseries , Peacemaker claim he catch the informationabout Superman from Google , though if he really learn it from Quinn it would make sense that he would want to keep that fact to himself as her credibility is questionable at well . While nothing of this sorting is sustain in the DCEU , it is all too possible , free-base on Harley Quinn ’s comic , that the hot - activeness version ofHarley Quinncould have beenPeacemaker ’s hush-hush source for the disgustingSupermanrumor .
