If I recall, her popularity also predicated on her being an even edgier Harley Quinn, with Harley being seduced by her sympathy for the Joker, perceiving him as a victim of a cruel society as embodied by Batman, while Punchline presented herself as being "in on the joke," and just as much of a nihilistic sociopath as the Joker himself, only updated for the social media age.
The spider is always on the hunt.
Unfortunately, this type of thing isn't new to either of the Big 2. Evil That Men Do retconned Felicia into a rape victim and featured a lot of sexualized imagery of her. Starfire and Cheshire are two of DC's most (in)famous fanservice characters and were both slaves in their backstories.

I don't even know that one... Checking out here, she's obsessed with the Joker, so that's a bad sign lol.
Is she as whatever as she sounds like?
Well, did she want the transformation? 'Cause she's acting very differently...
Urgh, I don't like how you're probably right lol.dont worry her trauma will be used later on for her to be forgiven for her crimes like Harley
Let me guess, she was created when DiDio was still around lol.
At the very least, Starfire is okay with showing off her body to the point she got a job as a model.
Janine got raped by her father, and she doesn't look like someone who likes showing off her body, and if Hallow's Eve shit is also not her choice, yeah... Questionable overall.
He never really asked aunt May to go out though lol.
Most of the older stories have him leaving and doing whatever, at most, she essentially forced him to stay home when she wanted him to go on a date with MJ, but that happened like, once.
Think she also scolded him when he took too long to get home...
But even then, overall he did what he wanted, and, y'know, he only had to obey her 'cause he lived on her house, and if he's not living there, yeah, he has no reason to ask, just warn her.
I see someone checks out the random drawings Frank Cho makes .
It's fine for some characters to speak like this, but I think the black haired one there is Laura, and if so, it sounds weird for her to talk like that lol.
And even worse in Starfire's case, it was her own sister who sold her into slavery out of spite and set it up so that would be the only way to avoid getting their planet wiped out by their people's enemies. That said, yeah, I remember The Evil That Men Do. Extremely incongruous, come to think of it.
Indeed, though with X-Terminators as illustrated by Gomez just concluded, it really makes me want him and Leah Williams to finish up Amazing Mary Jane, but as a Mary Jane/Black Cat team-up guest-starring the X-Terminators.
Most likely, since her big debut was in Joker War and that was in 2020.
