Final note, Injustice by itself is worth reading but given how utterly dogshit DC is these days, as is Marvel, I don't recommend paying for their works, even their older back catalogues so sites like this are extremely useful for reading entire comic series.

I'd also like to add, Harley was a good character as a side-character.
And you're right that in the original animated versions it was easy to like her when she did periodically appear.
Now she suffers from the side-character-as-a-main-character syndrome, insofar that there wasn't enough there for her as a side-character to be a main character and be liked. She played well off the Joker as the less crazy one in the pairing, and garnered some sympathy for how he treated her in the DCAU; and the abusive relationship is what made her somewhat endearing, while her psychotic side and loyalty to Joker made her unpredictable and interesting... in small doses.
She is a bit like Booker from 21 Jump Street -- he was a cool character on that show, but he was not cool enough to warrant having his own show as the main character, which is why his solo spin-off failed.
