Mirka Andolfo New Cosplay Look for Harley Quinn in Black White & Red

The first issue of the digital DC Comics title Harley Quinn: Black, White and Red, Stjepan Sejic gave what many DC Comics fans were missing, a Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn moment together. Stjepan Sejic has been teasing a Poison Ivy Black Label series – or at least trying to get DC Comics to green light it, without joy. So he took the opportunity to sneak her in.

Reep indeed. But yeah issue sees a different creator take the lead. Issue 3 will have Saladin Ahmed and Javier Rodriguez, and issue 4 will have Tim Seeley and Juan Ferreyra. But issue 2, had Mirka Andolfo. Mirka has become quite the star of late, what with in-demand variant covers, and her adapted-into-English series Unnatural and Mercy at Image and Un/Sacred at Ablaze.

"Fashion Victim"
Harley is determined to steal back the spotlight by sabotaging Catwoman in style! When the two are challenged to model a new line of cutting-edge criminal couture, Harley accepts it as a contest of pride-but she'll have to swallow a tough pill when she learns her arrogance is all part of Selina's grand plan to pull off the ultimate high-profile heist on the catwalk.

And in doing so, gives Harley Quinn – and Catwoman – a brand new look. On a motorcycle too. So which will come first, cosplay (at whatever convention might exist going forward) or a DC Direct statue? Because you know you'll get both.

The off-the-shoulder number may have more of an elegant look, especially with those diamond-shaped glasses. And it's not the only costume that Harley – or indeed, Catwoman, wear during the strip in a competition to one-up each other for social media attention (not the usual behaviour for a cat burglar) but at least it will provide cospayers with ever more variations to choose from one we get to go back to comic conventions again.
