Here's a match up that I am surprised that nobody has suggested before, because it feels like a natural. Both are villains with backgrounds in psychiatry and have each found themselves fighting on the side of good from time to time. Despite those similarities, I am betting they would not get along at all, given their personalities. One has a cold, calculating demeanor while the other's is crazy and unpredictable. I'd love to see this battle done for real.
And the chapters will be: Reading a Harleyquin Novel. Romantic feelings in the Moonglow. Self editing. And finally when both are locked in special straight jackets they can't break thru they would be locked in a room together, super analysing each other Shrink Wrapped. Who will go quiet first?
ReplyDeleteIf ever it was done for real, the publishers would probably entitle it
ReplyDelete"Shrink Scrap" (as a pun on "shrink wrap").
Now I really want to see another therapist 'battle' -- Otto Scracthensniff from Animaniacs vs Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist
ReplyDeleteOr Harley and the Warner Brothers (and their sister, Dot)
Funnily enough, I could see the two of them having been college roommates.
ReplyDelete@Cary: Nah. The story would end with the two coming to terms and deciding to go out for karaoke night, with Harley insisting on doing a Salt & Pepa number for a "shrink rap."
ReplyDelete@Mike: Personally I'd love to see the Warners choose the Joker as their new "Special Friend." ("Bats! Please! Arrest me! Throw me back into Arkham! You've got to!")
Imagine this as a sequel to the Harley and Joker meet the Creeper episode from B:tas !
DeleteI second Bob G's "Animaniacs vs. the Joker" idea. ^_^
ReplyDeleteWhere's Doc Samson when you really need him? "Have Super-Couch, Will travel."
ReplyDeleteWill Harley be able to pass a Moonstone easier than a kidney stone? There's a pair to shudder over: Harley & Norman Osborn. Forget Mistah J.
Congratulations on the idea, Ross.
I wonder if this fight is occurring in Kandor?
ReplyDeleteHarley ALWAYS speaks in candor.
ReplyDeleteYou're right—an excellent match u, AND the art is a perfect match-up too! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jim!
ReplyDeleteSpecial request :Harley with the Phantom Stranger plus Pinky and the Brain.
ReplyDelete"Are you thinking what i'm thinking?" "Taking over the World tonight!"
What if Pinky and the Brain tried to kidnap Mickey Mouse? Only to discover that "Mickey" was already being impersonated by Chicken Boo!
ReplyDelete@Anon937: Holy Spielberg, Batman!
