I wouldn't say "Replacement" given her different motives and purpose, but yes Punchline is a character worth keeping around. This prevents Harley from regressing, and gives us a fun henchwoman to tag along with Joker. I think the only thing really hurting her besides not yet having a cartoon appearance is the fact that she showed up right before DC started getting really weird with Joker. After the Tynion run, Joker was more or less put on backburner and everyone was trying to make sense/clean up Geoff Johns's 3 Jokers nonsense. We had some imposters, then the retcon of Joker's personality shifting being due to psychological training which was then tied to Zur En Arrh Batman. So we haven't had a "normal" Joker scheme in a while to give her the chance to do fun things. Last time I remember seeing her was the last Sirens book
