Not long ago, I had created a fan-based comic of Harley Quinn in Las Vegas, as a brief story for the comics fan site, Heromorph (see links). Because the comic was fan-produced, regards to DC copyrights of the Harley Quinn character were not an issue. As the story evolved, I introduced a new original character, Miss V (or Vee, as seen here). She was only a minor figure, but by the time the story ended I decided I had plans for her besides just making her a victim in a Vegas casino bombing. As the ending suggests, it is not "curtains" for Miss V, and she re-invents herself from washed-up showgirl to a new heroine, out to stop Harley. In the new comic, the character presently identified as "Harley Quinn" will be altered.
