DESCRIPTION
In DC's Harley Quinn, King Shark could be seen as queer as early as season 1. Then the DC animated universe movie "Justice League Dark: Apokolips War" came out, and the reveal that King Shark and John Constantine dated in the movie was the talk of the internet, allowing some to look at King Shark with a queer perspective for the first time. So I see if King Shark’s queer icon status is legitimate, by exploring if Harley Quinn’s King Shark has his character and development relatable to the gay and queer audience members that have since claimed him.
