The Feline Follies of Felix the Cat

Tropes about the comic should ideally be on its own page, under the Comic Book namespace.
If it's specifically a tie-in comic to the show that is explicitly canon to the show's events, then its tropes should go on the show's page.
Just make it clear when you add the tropes involved that they're from the comic.
"The difference between reality and fiction is that fiction has to make sense." - Tom Clancy, paraphrasing Mark Twain.
Speaking of the tie-in comic, I guess it was successful enough for DC to announce a one-shot special issue
. The stories focus on side characters such as Clayface, Batgirl, Joker, Frank, and others. Tee Franklin and some of the show's writers are working on it.
Here's the Season Three trailer for the series< streaming on July 28.
Goku Black
I hope they keep Affably Evil Joker. I like a portrayal where he isn't just a homicidal douche
"That's right mortal. By channeling my divine rage into power, I have forged a new instrument in which to destroy you."
Didn't laugh once.
Pronounced YAK-you-luss
I expect they'll continue to split the difference and make him an abrasive, homicidal douche who's also a wonderful father, husband, and pet owner. Maybe he'll be a surprisingly good mayor, too?
What's precedent ever done for us?
Disasturbator
where's kiteman
New theme music also a box
Probably still in the show. They might need to segue into the spin-off, after all.
He is getting a spin off show:

The Head of the Hydra
Wonder how Harley is gonna mess this up.
She and Ivy look to still be in the honeymoon phase of the relationship, it's gotta end sometime.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."A brand new trailer for Harley Quinn has dropped:
Fun trailer, but yeesh, I seriously hope they're not going the "Harley as a hero" route. One of things I liked about this show is its portrayal of Harley and Ivy as being morally gray.
Latest blog update (November 5th, 2022).
Goku Black
Plus I like how that contrasts with her frenemy Bats here who's more morally straight.
"That's right mortal. By channeling my divine rage into power, I have forged a new instrument in which to destroy you."
The Head of the Hydra
Okay so they are actually going into that Ivy's wants are very different from what Harley wants.
Okay stellar, Ivy's taking charge and actually becoming a fucking Supervillain again.
"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
Starting October, we're getting ANOTHER Tee Franklin-penned comic, this time a six-issue miniseries subtitled Legion of Bats. It takes place after season 3.
I'd, um, avoid looking at the solicit, since it has some big spoilers.
Latest blog update (November 5th, 2022).
Season 3 premieres today.
I gotta give the show credit for changing my perception on Harley Quinn.
Watching Harley act as an obsessive Love Martyr towards Ivy seemed almost out of character to me before I realized who the hell I was watching.

The Head of the Hydra
In a way she traded one obsession for another
…… Wait fuck that’s exactly what she did, only difference is the new obsession is only somewhat less toxic than the last one ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}
Visiting from the Hoag Galaxy
Ivy's the type of person to tell Harley to tone it down and to want to reach a middle ground of some sort.
The Joker encourages the obsession because it makes Harley easier to manipulate.
Not Three Laws compliant.
Khatun of the Azim Steppe
Yes, I think that if you remove Harley's being so over-the-top hyper, you get a fairly normal young couple slowly finding what each other's boundaries are.
Actually, for a show centered about the comic book incarnation of abusive relationships and with a tendency for dark humor, you get a fair number of positive relationships depicted. Even exes behave decently with each other (Joker notwithstanding - but he's now a family man somehow).
Visiting from the Hoag Galaxy
The show even avoided the temptation to treat Kite-Man like an asshole punchline. The framing is that he and Ivy wouldn't have worked long-term for several reasons, but that doesn't mean he's a bad guy, Ivy did do something bad to him, and he's still a nice guy they can maybe hang out with sometimes once the awkwardness has been moved past.
Honestly, this is probably the closest Harley and Joker ever got to being Amicable Exes. Like they're just kinda passive-aggressive towards each other instead of trying to murder each other, and even when Harley forced Joker to work with her they ended up working decently enough and Joker even gives her relationship advice.
Khatun of the Azim Steppe
That show seems to really want to talk about relationships, but I kinda dig it.
Gotta love that Alfred was so fed up with Bruce's crap that he called a supervillain to help.
I do however feel like the more the story advances, the more it focuses on Ivy. It makes sense, as she seemed like the most well-adjusted of the two, but now it seems Harley - hyperactivity aside - has really her shit sorted out.
And Ivy's awesome so it's not a complaint.
