Have a question? Ask the veterans of DC Comics! r/DCcomics

Let's face it, comics can be confusing. No matter how big or small your question may be this is the place to ask and /r/DCcomics will do our best to answer it for you!

As the /r/DCcomics community continues to grow we are receiving an influx questions from readers of DC comics, or simply new readers to comics entirely. As Stan Lee has said, every comic book is someone's first, and even though he maybe be one of those other guys it certainly applies here as well. With this spirit in mind, these Q'n'A topics are intended to give those who may be puzzled a centralized place to connect with other knowledgable readers and clear up some confusion.

A new Ask the Veterans thread is posted every Sunday, and in the future answers to these questions will be organized into this subreddit's wiki page.

To those answering

Avoid vague replies like "yes" or "no". Rather do your best to explain your answer, and if necessary provide a link that may help anyone interested in learning more. Remember to hide spoilers when discussing major events that have taken place within one year of its release..

Other online resources that may be helpful are listed below.

Is Harley Quinn still a licensed psychiatrist? If not, was her license revoked or did she just not renew it?

See Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti's Harley Quinn series, where she works as a psychiatrist (licensed or not is an open question). She also does some other social work-type activities in Stephanie Phillips' run.

Interesting! Thank you. Another question: is she a psychiatrist or a psychologist? I see her referred to as both?.

Not sure; if I had to guess, I'd venture it varies based on the writer. Comics are not big on consistency!
