10 Superhero Movies That Changed Comic Book Characters Forever
3. Suicide Squad - Harley Quinn
Joker's lover, Harley Quinn, made her first appearance in the animated TV show, and continued to wear her red, and black leather jester suit for the most part.
In 2016, the Suicide Squad film altered the character to looks misfitted, yet believable in the modern world. Margot Robbie wore a red, and blue themed outfit, with a leather jacket, fishnet stockings, and a short tattered t-shirt, and shorts.
It's apparent that DC Rebirth drew from the new design when adapting Harley back to the comic books, by her having no face mask, showing more skin, and having the double ponytail hairstyle, exactly like the movie's.
After Margot Robbie's stellar performance and abandoning The Joker in order to help the team, this was an opportunity that showcased that Harley could work independently of The Joker; which was seized by DC granting the fans, and Harley Quinn her own comic book run.
