About this deal

She continuously produces cover work for Marvel Comics, DC Comics and an assortment of independent titles. I’ve reviewed and read so many bad Harley comics, I started to think no one could write the character anymore. I now see that the people who know how to write the character are RIGHT HERE! They just have to be given more of a chance. During an assignment for Crusade (‘Tomoe’) she and Jimmy Palmiotti became a real team as penciller/inker. I also didn’t care so much for Leah William’s Harley voice. It sounded more on the side of “edgy, crude” Harley. DC needs to decide what Harley’s personality really is. I would recommend that the “cute but villainess” Harley would have the most broad appeal.

As to the stories themselves, I enjoy the ones that I actually read with care, these stories are humorous with a few fresh ideas here and there e.g. Harley Quinn and Catwoman all dressed up pretty and become fashion icons (or do they really?), Harley as a working girl, having business meetings with the Legion of Doom and the henchmen actually has an workers' union? Great! I like the story with Harley battling her way through the Hip Hop street battle version of the Riddler, Huntress, Bane, Two Face and last but not least, Scarface and Joker! You know how much I love when Scarface shows up! Plus the Goth.I.Am... or should I say, the Hip Hop version of Bruce Wayne/Batman is great too. LOLDal punto di vista grafico, si poteva fare di meglio, ma qui entra in gioco il gusto verso un disegnatore. His name is Red Tool, and he wants to prove his love for Harley…by murdering people, kidnapping her and trying to force her to marry him! This is the final book of the OG Conner/Palmiotti run and coincided with the 2016 movie's release, and the one where she gets a mini make-over and she becomes the blonde most people know her as from the movies/TV show. I was waiting for that tbh!

I wish we had a chance to see more wrap-up about the Gang of Harleys or what was going to happen to the wax museum (the one Harley is running for Madame Macabre while she’s off helping Mason). I’m thinking Rebirth dropped too suddenly for the authors to have much of a chance at wrapping everything up, but I could be wrong. Still a shame. We have all Cosplay Costumes with excellent value for money, and we guarantee that you will receive 100% of the products you want.This volume also has Harley playing the environmentalist, although it’s not necessarily about her love of the green lady Poison Ivy. Even when Harley seems to be playing the ditz, she pays attention to the world around her and she realizes that there’s more involved in the loss of a tree than a little greenery. Now, will this comic sell? Unfortunately, I don’t have high hopes for that. Anthologies, even for the most major comic book characters, tend to be overlooked. Harley is also still too over-exposed, and I can see people ignoring this book. There’s also the problem of anthologies, in general, presenting inconsistent work. This comic might be great, but the next collection could be mediocre or even bad. However, I gotta say, if you love the GOOD versions of Harley and you’ve got money to spend, BUY THIS COMIC! I’m sorry, but how stupid do people think women are? If you see a woman on the news who robbed a bank, but she starts preaching about how she broke up with her abusive boyfriend, you’re not gonna respond, “YAS SLAY QUEEN, DUMP HIM!” No, you’re gonna be thinking about what a terrible human being she is for stealing! To see Harley go off on a jewel heist, and then have the story shift into a narrative about personal growth and betterment while she’s still a lunatic criminal is just ludicrous. Harley Can’t Be a Role Model During my time reviewing at Batman News, I’ve given most comics scores of about 6 or lower. That’s because, quite simply, I don’t think most comics released today even manage to be of average quality. I’m especially harsh on Harley comics. The problems DC has with writing her character run very deep and seem to be never ending in mainstream comics. DC editorial seems not to care about doing anything to remedy the situation. (This is disheartening to me since Harley Quinn is supposed to be my favorite character).
