Harleen was first known in graphic novel. Her name was Doctor Francis Quinzel. She was a psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum.

The story told the origin of Jokers girlfriend. The story also talked about Joker's origin. Harley interviewed many of insane criminals at Arkham. She met her match though when interviewed the Joker. The Joker became the psychiatrist and Harley became the patient. She fell in love with The Joker. She had terrible nightmares after initial interviews with The Joker.

Some of the other characters that appeared in graphic novel were Batman, Poison Ivy, Two Face, and Commissioner Jim Gordon. The story was extremely well written and drawn by Stjepan Sejic.

I just got from local library.

This is interview done with Stjepan at DC Comics. I did not do this interview. I just thought it would be helpful to readers interested in Harleen.

BEHIND THE PAINTED SMILE

A young psychiatrist with a potential cure for the madness that haunts Gotham City, Dr. Harleen Quinzel must prove her revolutionary theory delving to a skeptical establishment by delving into the disturbing minds of Arkham Asylum's deadliest inmates. But the more time she spends with her criminally insane subjects, the closer she is drawn to one patient in particular - and the further she falls away from reality.

The birth of the legendary antihero Harley Quinn and the shocking origins of her twisted romance with The Joker are reveled in Harleen, a stunning new tale of love and obsession, written and illustrated by renowned comics storyteller Stjepan Sejic ( Aquaman: Underworld, Sunstone)
