Harley, Mr. J, and Mr. B
From the end of the Kesel run.

The Joker escaped Arkham, again... Then dropped off the face of the Earth. Batman recruited Harley to draw him out. She did, and found him living like a hermit. She told the Joker what she was doing, and that she was playing along with Batman to make sure he didn't get caught. She suggested keeping Bat's brain busy while they... Um, she meant the Joker... figured out what they'd do, next.

The Joker sent her back to Batman with a joke related clue to his big plan. Batman made a deduction, and told Harley to take him to the Joker, but she said that it would go down whether the Joker was behind bars, or not, and that he wouldn't tell her the details. So, he sent her back, and she told him what Batman deduced. The Joker sent her back with another joke related clue, Batman made another deduction and sent her back, and so on...

Then, we get to the punchline...

Interrogation, Gotham City Siren style
If you think Batman is rough when it comes to interrogating suspects... Well, let's just say that, when in Gotham, be very careful when going into a dark room with a lovely woman you don't know, thinking you're going to score...

Harley Quinn contemplating
While I wasn't overly fond of Lieberman's run, there were all these individual bits I really liked, like these two pages from Harley Quinn #32...

Harley, of course, is the Trickster archetype. Tricksters, in myth, are often shape changers, so it's fitting that Harley has taken many identities over the years, many masks. At this point, she's considering walking away from the Harley Quinn persona, and slipping permanently into the Dr. Jessica Seaborn identity.

She's wondering if a certain someone else has ever considered doing the same...

Harley Quinn vs. Batman
Continuing posts in anticipation for Gotham City Sirens. Here's a scene from Harley Quinn #12 which climaxes Kesel's first arc.

Kenny Two-Bear had henched for just about all the main colorful freaks in Gotham. His brother, Nixon, was a veteran of Intergang, but was new in town. They both started working for Harley, but Nix just never quite got how things worked in that city. Kenny was always warning him that things are different, there, that there are things you can do other places, but that you just don't do in Gotham if you want to survive.

Nix didn't listen, and decided to break one of those rules, namely betraying his colorful psychotic boss. Kenny doesn't like the idea, knowing the consequences, but goes along because Nix is his brother.

Meanwhile, Batman, who's been investigating for several issues (And he's especially mad about the destruction of Wayne Manor in an earlier issue, though that totally wasn't really Harley's fault) is closing in...

More Harley Quinn being a badass, this time in Harley Vision
Continuing in anticipation of Gotham City Sirens, we learn, once again, that trying to collect a bounty on Harley doesn't pay off unless your actual goal is suicide. This one's from Kesel's run.

While there's been much debate over whether the Joker and others are really not guilty by reason of insanity, since they know what they're doing, Harley actually wasn't guilty during Kesel's run. She really didn't realize she was killing people. How this was shown was we'd switch from "reality" to how Harley saw what was happening. The shifts in perspective were done in a way that payed homage to her animated origins.
