New York Comic-Con is about to get sassy as DC and Warner Bros. bring Harley Quinn to Gotham City in a big way!

BIRDS OF PREY (AND THE FANTABULOUS EMANCIPATION OF ONE HARLEY QUINN)
Outside the convention center, and all across the city, Warner Bros. Pictures’ Birds of Prey... will tantalize fans with eye-popping, psychedelic, Harley-ized billboards popping up everywhere. So be on the lookout – meaning, look up!
HARLEY QUINN POP-UP GALLERY
The mayhem continues on Friday, October 4 at DC Universe’s Headquarters (#DCUHQ) at the Hudson Yards Loft with the debut of “The Fantabulous Evolution of One Harley Quinn Gallery”, an immersive pop-up installation.
The Fantabulous Evolution of One Harley Quinn Gallery, just steps from the Javits Center, and open to the public, Harley will reign from the original concept sketch for Batman: The Animated Series through the theatrical release of Birds of Prey cover art.
No Badge Required! This fun, interactive exhibit will invite fans to experience the evolution of DC’s most delightfully deranged Super-Villain. From her first comic book appearance to her upcoming animated series and her next big-screen adventure, get a sneak peek at all things Harley Quinn including special edition cover art, original and exclusive art from the new animated series as well as model sheets, sketches, collectibles, props, costumes and more. The exhibit will feature art by Amanda Conner, Jim Lee and Bruce Timm, among others. No badges, tickets or reservations required!
“Harley is allowed to be human, just like the rest of us. She can have fun, make mistakes, throw tantrums… you have a lot of characters that have to be perfect, but she can be imperfect. And what’s really fun is she gets to do all the mischievous and fiendish things that the rest of us can only fantasize about doing.”
– Amanda Conner Comic Book Artist & Concept Artist
