Both Tynion IV and Jimenez spoke toDC Comicsabout Punchline ’s forthcoming role and what ’s in store for her . Tynion IV said Punchline is a " radically " different foil to the Joker as Harley Quinn once was . She will bounce off the Clown Prince of Crime in fresh and different ways , while readers will slowly learn what Punchline is all about , her need , and her true relationship to the Joker . Jimenez said when he first get the verbal description of Punchline , it was obvious she was the " anti - Harley Quinn . " He describe Punchline ’s looking and both he and Tynion ’s felicity with the final product .
As shortly as I take the description , I was very clear-cut on what I wanted to do : the anti - Harley Quinn . Could there be anything more fun ? I add freckles that give personality to her face , and I have find that it is stylish in war paint to place a period just below the eye , and I think it would be exceedingly nerveless to lend this to her frigid and tenebrific look . As before long as I finished the draftsmanship , I felt that this was just what James was looking for , and I was very well-chosen when I found out that I was right .
Jimenez is right . One of the most interesting aspects of Punchline is her design . The character stands out and has an immediate unique quality to her . Whether her personality matches her look will be make up one’s mind , but by stark looks , Jimenez nailed it . Now , it ’s clock time to see her in action . She ’s cold and calculated - but how else does she differ from Harley ? The two ’s first clash is live on to be BIG . But , how will Punchline come out as more than just Joker ’s later weapon system in the ' Joker War ? " She ’s clearly going to be a cardinal player , but when the arc wrap up , will she become more than a bite - role player and follow a similar flight toHarley Quinn ? It ’s cliche to say , but only clip will tell .
