    Harley Quinn#36 soars. Great fights, humor and art make the book worth your time and money. The series has found its next great team in Frank Tieri and Inaki Miranda. Let's hope they keep putting a smile on our face. Read Full Review

    Even though Tieri's dialogue is a little clunky at times, the story here is headed in a great direction. Tieri had a difficult challenge following Palmiotti and Conner's exit, but he's started to deal with Harley's mental state in a responsible way. The art is a high point of the book, from the Harley-Bat design to the portrayal of raw emotion. It's a success overall, getting this Jimmy & Amanda loyalist on board. Read Full Review

    Though this issue is action packed and on the surface seems to be just another battle issue, there's a lot more going on here than that. Towards the end we see Harley reflecting on her popularity and wondering if, somehow that popularity is responsible for the mess that ensued. The professor being unable to remember where the antidote is a nice touch and making him all the more real. How many times have we forgotten where we put things, even though we think we put them in a special place that we won't forget? Then this issue looks like it's going to be the final chapter in this story but there's a nice twist at the end to let us know that things are a little fishy and the arrival of"to be continued.

    The Pop Break - Sheena Fisher

    Well overall this part of the story was pretty predictable. I don't think we could have Harley-Bat for the rest of this run. Of course the team had to cure her and Tony. But, the nice thing is the ending of this tale wasn't predictable. The story is continuing in a direction I saw as an option, but wasn't sure would be the path taken by the writer. I always like it when classic Gotham villains are brought into Harley's life. Read Full Review

    An excellent issue in a series that is building fresh momentum in the Tieri-Inaki run. This title is definitely still hot and one to watch! Read Full Review

    A light, well-paced story that is dragged down by some unfortunately muddied visuals. Those interested in seeing Harley in Man-Bat action will not be left disappointed. Those who want to see Harley's support system acting in concert to save the day will also be satisfied. Those who want to see the author of this issue working at a Coney Island tchotchkes stand...what the hell is wrong with you? Well, you'll be happy, too. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Elena Carrillo

    Jan 31, 2018

    Harley's on-again, off-again desire to reintegrate after the loss of Mason continues to make this book a bit of an emotional yo-yo; your enjoyment may depend on your patience for the degree of dithering, but the bat-fights at least are absolutely entertaining! Read Full Review

    Comic Book Bin - Philip Schweier

    Regardless, it sets up a conflict to be explored in subsequent issues. It may not entirely place Harley on the side of the angels " and thats okay " but it may establish a less villainous role within the DC Universe, Suicide Squad or not. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield

    There's a lot of action this issue, and Miranda's depiction of Man-Bats is suitably creepy, but overall it feels very standard, which the last run never did. Read Full Review

    Despite all the negatives mentioned, this book was still a good read, unfortunately though not as fun or entertaining as it has been. Read Full Review

    The artwork was pretty decent for this issue, with a few highlights in particular. I loved the cover, but I already mentioned that earlier. I also really liked the transition from Bat Harley back into normal Harley. It was pretty cool and admittedly slightly comical (but in a Harley humor sort of way). Read Full Review

    While still entertaining, the new Harley Quinn feels like a warmed over continuation of what came before than anything new and exciting. Read Full Review
