The San Diego Comic-Con (which, believe it or not, used to actually feature comic books) is an annual celebrity fest these days. One such notable, Liev Schreiber, was in attendance this year, partly to promote, but also to parent.
Schreiber took his young sons to the entertainment spectacle this year, both in costume. His oldest son, 9-year-old Sasha, went dressed as a Jedi, and his youngest, 8-year-old Kai, decided to channel the unfettered persona of Harley Quinn.
As one would quickly assume, the childs costume choice and the parents willingness to let him go as he pleased, inspired a fair amount of commentary in some circles online.
Liev Schreiber is an awesome dad for this! wrote the Twitter user Common Gay Boy, followed by a chorus of agreement.
Some other observers found a few things to complain about it, however.
Cosplaying as a female character is ONE thing. Wearing a slutty outfit of a movie character that isnt age appropriate is ANOTHER thing! wrote the detractor VeganMegan on Twitter.
There is a growing movement in society to more frequently allow for boys to dress in costumes and play with toys that might traditionally be more associated with girls, and vice versa. Given how much discussion happens when public figures engage in less gender-specific practices, its clear theres a ways to go before it becomes noncontroversial.
Schreiber shares custody of his sons with actress Naomi Watts. The couple split up in 2016 after an 11-year relationship. Theyve both been very public about their commitment to co-parenting. Were parents together so well be together for the rest of our lives no matter, Schreiber was quoted late last year. Hopefully, that never changes and I dont think it will.
Harley Quinn was actually invented for the Batman animated series.
Voiced by Arleen Sorkin and the Joker was voiced by Mark Hamill.
One of the very few times that a character was invented in a cartoon, became a hit, and transitioned to comic books, video games, and then a movie.

Dr. Harleen Quinzell appeared in TV’s short-lived ‘Birds of Prey’, as well.

psy·cho·sissīˈkōsəs/noun
a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.
"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.Most of the activity of the department [KGB] was to compile huge amount / volume of information, on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion. Publisher, editors, journalists, uh actors, educationalists, professors of political science. Members of parliament, representatives of business circles.Most of these people were divided roughly into two groups: those who would tow the Soviet foreign policy, they would be promoted to positions of power through media and public manipulation; [and] those who refuse the Soviet influence in their own country would be character assassinated OR executed physically, come Revolution.

And sister of Manny Quinn, who’s a real stiff.
The Harley character was created for the animated tv series (around the time of the 89-90’s movies) to give the Joker character someone to talk to and give some actress who was a friend of the producers a paycheck. The current “sexy” look is from the Halloween costumes and video games because marketing Batman stuff for Time Warner makes money.
I know people who went to SDCC once when it was still mostly comics oriented. They said it was insanely crowded (compared to the East coast and Midwest comic shows) and they would never, ever go back and that was almost thirty years ago now.
I’m sorry but that little kid just looks demonic. His dad is either a brainwashed fool or perverse.
I have no idea who Liev Schrieber is and I’ve never heard of Harley Quinn. Is this a thing?
And now they want children aged 2 years old to attend ‘preschool’. At this rate it is surprising they ‘allow’ ‘parent#1/parent#?’ to bring children home. Soon they may be swiping them right out of the womb~! Trying hard to keep those little minds controlled. The ‘year round school’ is part of it too. Then the college (and government debt) for everyone thing is part of it too. It is any surprise parents and family is a ‘thing of the past’?

“In popular culture
Dylan makes reference to the song in his 2004 autobiography Chronicles Volume One: “On the way back to the house I passed the local movie theater on Prytania Street, where The Mighty Quinn was showing. Years earlier, I had written a song called ‘The Mighty Quinn’ which was a hit in England, and I wondered what the movie was about. Eventually, I’d sneak off and go there to see it. It was a mystery, suspense, Jamaican thriller with Denzel Washington as the Mighty Xavier Quinn a detective who solves crimes. Funny, that’s just the way I imagined him when I wrote the song ‘The Mighty Quinn,’ Denzel Washington.”[20] Dylan’s chorus is featured in the movie, with different verses, since the movie’s Quinn is not an Eskimo.
“The Mighty Quinn” is also the main theme music for English Premiership Rugby Club Harlequins AKA “Quins” , where the cover by Gotthard is mainly used.”
