In a special anniversary story, "Harley Saves the Universe!"-no kidding! While reading a mysterious Harley Quinn comic book, H.Q. accidentally breaks all of reality. And you know the saying: if you break it, you bought it! Now it's up to Harley to travel through both time and space to fix all the continuity errors she created. Luckily, she'll have a little help, 'cuz riding shotgun is none other than special guest star Jonni DC, Continuity Cop! Good thing, too, because if Harley fails, it means her own mom will be lost forever. Gulp! That doesn't sound very funny!

Dark Knight News - Kendra Hale
Sep 22, 2018For me, this story was amazing, not only with all the different artists that contributed to the book as the story progressed, but the writing by Sam Humphries is completely on point. It feels like an amazing adventure to go on with Harleen. Everything works together in such beautiful harmony and I am so excited to continue with this series going forward. With just these two issues alone they have a fan for life. This issue has earned itself a fully deserved 10/10 Read Full Review

That's Entertainment - Ash
Oct 01, 2018Classic Harley comedy, delightfully surprising cameos, and fourth wall murdering with malice of forethought. Who know where it goes from here. Read Full Review

Comic Book Corps - Mike Bedard
Sep 19, 2018This issue celebrates Harley Quinn's 50th issue in an appropriate manner. It plays around with breaking the fourth wall but also shows the impact Quinn has had on people since she came into existence. There are plenty of Harley stories yet to come, and as long as they continue to be as entertaining as this one, Quinn will always have fans. Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Olivier Roth
Sep 20, 2018Since I’m a sucker for these types of “Let’s just have as much fun as possible within this comic”, I can’t recommend this issue enough, even if you aren’t a Harley Quinn fan. Oh, you might want to pick this issue up also if you are a Captain Triumph fan (look him up), since he makes a fun appearance. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Sep 26, 2018Anniversary issues can feel excessive and unnecessary. It can be fun when a creative team takes a look back while carefully advancing the story in a new direction. Humphries takes a different route here: just invite a bunch of people over to have fun with the character. Its a huge party. Like any good party, it gets pleasantly out of hand. (Even the Anti-Monitor shows-up.) Not everything works, and it may not be perfect, but its the perfect approach thats perfectly suited to Harley. Read Full Review

Comic Book Bin - Philip Schweier
Sep 19, 2018It takes alot of art to get this crazy. Fortunately, the extra-sized book also features aroster of artists to illustrate each vignette, many of which are two-pagespreads. My only complaint is that between the ongoing Harley Quinn series, and the occasional special (last weeks Harley Quinn and Gossamer comes tomind), it feels like Ive been riding my Haley every week. Too much of a goodthing is a bad thing, And now that the book has reached its 50thissue, perhaps its time for DC Comics to dial it back to a monthly. Read Full Review

DC Comics News - Philip Clark
Sep 20, 2018Overall, I found this to be quite a disappointing issue ofHarley Quinn. Nothing seems to fit quite right in this comic and as much as I love the character, I think the team behind the comic are running out of ideas. Read Full Review

Newsarama - Pierce Lydon
Sep 24, 2018It's a weird and wacky spectacle despite the plotting being a little thin, but there are far worse ways you could spend $4 at the comic shop. Read Full Review

Batman-News - Casper Rudolph
Sep 22, 2018Ultimately, I don't think this really is a story. It's just a series of strange scenes that play out like a self-repeating formula, and that's really it. Artwise, some of it is fantastic, some of it is good, and some of it is bad. In the end, it's a mixed bag. Read Full Review

ComicBook.com - Nicole Drum
Sep 19, 2018Harley Quinn isn't Deadpool and DC isn't Marvel, but someone might want to tell Harley Quinn #50 that. Not only is the issue one giant breaking of the fourth wall, it's an Avengers: Infinity War-esque story as well, just insane in a bright and sort of wacky way. Read Full Review
