Believe me "NOTHING" removes permanent marker off a leather couch except "ajax".... I know it sounds harsh.... but it's the only thing that remove 85-90% of the stain.

Steps:
1. Sponge the affected area gently with a small amount of dry-cleaning solvent.

2. Blot with a clean, dry cloth or paper towel.
3. Mix 1 tsp. of a neutral detergent with 1 c. lukewarm water. Blot the stain with this solution.

4. Dab with rubbing alcohol and blot.

5. Sponge with clean water and blot again.

I don't think you can get Sharpie ink out of fabric, PERIOD. They are made to be permanent.
