January, 2008:

28th:
More tributes have been added to Heath's memorial page. I also added photos of the Harley Quinn wallhanging and the Harley Quinn video to the Merchandise page and there are a couple of new costumes on the Fan Love page as well as Batman Strikes #41 being added to Appearances.


23rd:
A memorial page for Heath Ledger has been added.


22nd:
YAY, already a few new updates!
Welp, there are three new images added to Joker's Page
There is also a couple of extra fanlove appreciations on that page

My boyfriend bought me the hardcover of Preludes and Knock-Knock Jokes... haven't opened it yet though. :)


Well. Uh. The Haven is back!

Hey guys! Miss me? It's been a while!


So what's changed about Harley's Haven? Welp, first of all, your humble (not) webmistress will no longer be presenting the website in "Harley's voice". I'm just little ole me.  Let's face it, that schtick was lame.
Second, although I once violently defended my self-claimed title as 'HQ's Number One Fan', I concede this is no longer so. Not that I think anyone's a BIGGER fan than me, just that I'm not THE biggest! ;) So I might be a more bearable person to engage with... hehe!

Third, a cleaner over all design. Yeesh, what was I thinking before? Not that this one's outta this world, but I think it's a little kinder on the ole eyeballs!
Oh yeah - the spelling and grammar is fixed too! ;) I don't know WHAT I was thinking!

Updates:
- Merchandise has had all the new Harley stuff added to it
- Appearances has been comprehensively updated
- Creators - better pics and more info
- Profile - a much better version!
- Calendar - has had a couple of dates added to it
- Styles - has had Birds of Prey and The Batman added to it

Some of the old Haven pages have been collected under one heading: Miscellany. Go here to read about Arleen Sorkin, the Paul Dini chat transcript, H&J-style song lyrics and also links to fanfiction!

New things?
You're asking for new things? What, it's not enough I resurrect this site, pouring my blood, sweat and tears into it to make it the one-stop shop for all info about Harley?
No?
Well, that's fair enough I suppose.


AND YES, there ARE new things!
Because I am teh awesome! ;)

Firstly, a big manifesto I have written on Joker and Harley's relationship, dealing specifically with the question of whether or not Joker has any love for Harley. It comes complete with thirty-six different scanned images from the comics.
I have added extra pics to the 'Mainstream' page as well, because, well, why not! I've changed the Top Ten just a little bit. There are also over twenty scanned images on Joker's little page.  And a little page About Me. ;)


In the lead-up to the premiere of The Dark Knight (squeeeee!) I will be adding a page on Harley's own comic series, that ran for almost three years, a page about her incarnation on the new cartoon The Batman and I'm toying with a few other ideas as well.


I'm no sexy, sexy website designer goddess, so I'm keeping the design simple and focusing on compiling as much information and history about Harley Quinn as possible. The site is very much HQ focused; although I adore The Joker, the kind of time required to create a comprehensive website spanning his fifty plus years is simply beyond me. I keep hoping someone else will do it, but as yet... nothing! ;)

I've cleaned up some of the content, made things a bit tidier, and shaved back some of the unnecessary stuff.

As always, Harley's Haven loves and values your contributions to the following sections of the website:

"Fan Love" - the place to show off your Harley tats, custom-designed stuff and costumes!
"Joker Love" - the place to send in information about our beloved Mistah Jay, also your favourite photos of him for display! ;)
"You Know You're a Harleyite When..." - send in your list of how you know!
"News" - any tidbits you come across that has to do with what's in store for Harley.
"Merchandise" - as above - we like to be as comprehensive as possible here on the site! :D
"Calendar" - is there an event significant to Harley's world not mentioned? Please send it over!
"Links" - we love awesome Harley and Joker related websites - please send over what you find!

And anything else at all you think belongs on the website!

My goal is to have the website 100% up to date by the premiere of The Dark Knight and to keep it going ever after.

IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK, THANK YOU, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL!
