Harlequin is a costumed serial killer based in Gotham City. She chooses victims who she "rescues" from a dull and drab life and frames them in forever in a moment of fun. After going through her twisted surgeries, Harlequin's victims are forever frozen in a garish pose. Some are not so lucky. Whatever limbs or heads she doesn't need right away, she stores in a refridgerator. One victim had the lower half of his body cut off and was transformed literally into a jack-in-the-box. In her inner sanctum, Harlequin placed four dead victims into a home setting to simulate her family as father, mother, brother, and grandma. Their smiling facial expressions were stapled and permanentely affixed. Their limbs were stapled to keep them in a permanent pose.

Batman entered Harlequin's hideout and freed a bound blonde woman from an over-sized box. Harlequin attacked them with a large mallet but Batman kicked it backwards into her face. The woman ran towards the building's entrance while Batman entered a hall of broken mirrors. Harlequin and Batman continued fighting until he got rested his foot on the mallet and punched her out. She flew through a mirror that hid the entrance to her "home" but she recovered and started up her chainsaw. She decapitated "dad" and "grandma" as she swung at Batman then he tossed her onto the television set. Harlequin charged Batman and swung her chainsaw into a concrete pillar. The chainsaw came apart and its chain sliced Harlequin's left side. Batman grabbed her wrists and she surrendered. Harlequin goaded him to take her to jail but Batman bit her neck and fed.
