Red Queen




This fan film is a short, little character study of Harley Quinn, the main squeeze of the Joker. Harley was created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm specifically for the classic Batman: The Animated Series in September 1992. She has been a staple in the DC universe ever since.

Created by Sheridyn Fisher “Red Queen – a Harley Quinn Fan Film” episode one is a short film by Mechanical Minds Studios, written by Sheridyn Fisher, Kerryn Williams and Dan Maher. Directed by Salim. Set inside the mind of Harley Quinn as her guilt forces a confrontation with her original persona.

Harley is a top rated, favorite character among fans. She has a lot of fan films dedicated to her or where she makes an appearance. Her costume is easy to make and if the actress can get the voice down an easy character to bring to live action.

After the success of The Animated Series, the character proved so popular that she was eventually added to the Batman comic book canon. She first appeared in the original graphic novel, Batman: Harley Quinn, as part of the “No Man’s Land” story, although she had already appeared in the Elseworlds Batman: Thrillkiller and Batman: Thrillkiller ’62 in 1997. The comic book version of Quinn, like the comic book version of the Joker, is more dangerously violent and less humorously quirky than the animated series version. Despite her noticeably more violent demeanor, Harley does show mercy and compassion from time to time; she notably stops Poison Ivy from killing Batman, instead convincing her to leave the hero hanging bound and gagged from a large statue. Batman is later untied by Batgirl. While the comic book version of the character is still romantically linked with the Joker, a more recent development has Harley also romantically involved with Poison Ivy. Harley Quinn series writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner confirmed that the two characters are in a non-monogamous romantic relationship. – Wikipedia

There’s not much to say about this short fan film beyond it is worth your time to take a look.
