    They choose Cassandra, because they want diversity in the characters.
    Yup yup this is one of the most blatant examples of checkboxing I have ever seen

    Feels like the Punchline and The Royal Flush Gang storyline will continue into 2022, I wonder who will take writing duties?

    Seeing her in Future State: Gotham was a pleasant surprise. Despite my initial fears, Harper is still a hero.
    The December/January solicitations seem to suggest that she escapes the prison and accomplish her mission of finding that old friend of Punchline's, so she presumably wins at least their first showdown.

    Oh I meant if Punchline will be spun into it's own miniseries or if it'll continue to be told through backups in various books. From the December solicits it seems like Punchline and the Royal Flush Gang will continue to be a presence in Gotham, at least until Joker makes a return to Gotham where he'll inevitably be targeting Punchline for getting his message wrong.

    Apparently, Young Justice S4 is out next month, and I assume Harper will be in it. Let's see if they get the character right this time and/or if she gets to wear the Bluebird suit.

    DC Fandome is next week, and thus, us Bluebird fans wait to see if DC will throw us a crumb or two.

    If the rumours of Injustice 3 are true, hopefully she's in it this time.

    Still clinging on the hope that she at least appears as a civilian in Batwoman S3, with hints of becoming Bluebird.

    Bluebird showing some ingenuity in today's Punchline backup, even showcasing a new toy of sorts:

    spoilers:
    Magnetic implants she embedded in her hands
    end of spoilers

    A look at Harper and Cullen (I guess?) in Young Justice season 4.

    Thought the Young Justice interpretation of Harper left a lot to be desired, I hope she gets some redemption this season. Between this and The Joker solicits, I’m hopeful Harper will continue to be used once the book ends in April.

    Also I still haven’t been able to read the Punchline backup yet, weather here has been bad, hoping tomorrow is better.

    Her hair in that image has me wondering how that'd look with her full Bluebird getup.

    That said, it's interesting that they depict her hair as just solid blue, rather than the usual purple with the blue streak as depicted in the comics.b

    Harper continues to be quite fun in the Punchline backups, though I'm curious as to whether this will really highlight why it has to be Harper instead of one of the other Batfamily members, other than her connection to Cullen and Leslie.

    I don’t know how to feel about the adoption, it was too fairytale. You can just take in every set of abused kids, I kinda like that Harper once legal supported herself and took Cullen with her.

    So how long until Harper and violet hook up

    So, Cullen's dyed his hair?

    Hope that means he'll have an arc to actively participate in, too, this time.

    Probably for pragmatic simplicity in animation.
