C announced it is launching a new Digital First comic starring Harley Quinn. Titled Harley Quinn: Black + White + Red, the digital comic will publish each Friday and run for 14 chapters. Inspired by Batman: Black & White, this new Harley Quinn title is an anthology of standalone stories by a rotating team of all-star creators.
Instead of being presented in the traditional black and white format, Harley Quinn: Black + White + Red will also add the color red in unique ways throughout each story. Talent contributing to the comic include Harley Quinn co-creator Paul Dini; the team of Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti, and Chad Hardin; Saladin Ahmed and Javier Rodriguez; Tim Seeley and Juan Ferreyra; Erica Henderson, Daniel Kibblesmith and more. The series will also mark the DC writing debuts of Mirka Andolfo (DC Comics: Bombshells), Dani (The Low, Low Woods), Joe Quinones (Dial H for Hero), and Riley Rossmo (Martian Manhunter).
"Harley Quinn: Black + White + Red is a great addition to our Digital First lineup," said Hank Kanalz, SVP of Publishing Strategy & Support Services. "Each story stands on its own, and this series gives our talent teams the freedom and flexibility to tell innovative stories that could be part of or separate from regular continuity. Everyone has a unique vision for Ms. Quinn -- it'll be fun to see what their creativity delivers."
"This is such a cool series with killer art," DC Executive Editor Mark Doyle said. "Senior Editor Chris Conroy had the idea to riff on the classic Batman: Black & White series but to do it with Harley in that irreverent, fun way that only Harley can do -- and DC Digital First seemed like the perfect format to tell these stories."
The first chapter of Harley Quinn: Black + White + Red, with art and story by Stjepan Šejić and lettering by Gabriela Downie, is on sale now on participating digital platforms, including readdc.com, Comixology, Amazon Kindle, Apple Books and more. Subsequent digital chapters of Harley Quinn: Black + White + Red will publish weekly on Fridays through its 14-chapter run. Andolfo’s story will publish July 3, Ahmed and Rodriguez’ collaboration will publish on July 10, and Seeley and Ferreyra’s chapter will publish on July 17 to round out the first month of the series.
