'Batman And Harley Quinn' To Premiere At San Diego Comic-Con 2017
Despite mixed fan reception for the live action adaptations of DC Comics in theaters, the animated universe of the comic personalities continues to make fans happy. The next chapter in the cartoon lexicon is Batman And Harley Quinn, an animated story about the clown princess of crime and the caped crusader. Also, Nightwing.
Over on the official San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) Toucan Blog, it was announced this morning that the world premiere of Batman and Harley Quinn will take place at Comic Con International this July.
Here is the trailer released for the flick back in May:
The announcement included news of a post-screening panel and discussion among available members of the core cast and filmmaking team, which include Batman voice favorite Kevin Conroy, Melissa Raunch as Harley, Loren Lester as Nightwing, Paget Brewster as Poison Ivy, and Kevin Michael Richardson as Jason Woodrue.
Needless to say, SDCC is a good place to have such a premiere, as it usually has one of the largest gatherings of comic fans on the west coast. Also, it's got the Harleypalooza get-together of Harley cosplayers. An asylum of Harleys, the collection of them together is always something to see.
