Did DC Comics ever officially publish a panel where Harley Quinn farts?
No. DC Comics has never published a canonical or official comic panel showing Harley Quinn passing gas. All screenshots showing this moment are fan-made digital lettering edits designed for online humor.
Which comic run did the viral screenshots steal their artwork from?
The images were lifted from the 2013, 2018 *Harley Quinn* solo run written by Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti, featuring artwork by illustrators such as Chad Hardin and John Timms.
Why did the fake Harley Quinn comic panel fool so many readers?
The Conner and Palmiotti era embraced over-the-top, slapstick, and occasionally gross-out humor (such as scenes involving dirty pet shelters and cartoon violence). Because the official tone was already delightfully absurd, casual readers assumed the crude dialogue was authentic.
How can fans verify whether an unusual comic panel is genuine?
Check the issue’s credits, inspect the speech balloon typography for uneven margins, or search DC's digital library on DC Universe Infinite. Genuine DC pages maintain professional lettering standards that fan edits rarely replicate perfectly.
