Harley Quinn #44

Overall this is a solid miniseries in just two issues and I'm really looking forward to reading more of it. Remender's Giant Generator studio at Image Comics is producing some top notch comics, and well worth sampling if you haven't already. Read Full Review

It will be interesting to see the voyage in store for Harley and her Destructive Agency. With all the work Harley has recently put into herself, it remains to be seen what the path forward has in store. But I look forward to seeing it with you, friends. Read Full Review

This is a sure-handed, if unsubtle new direction for the title. This reviewer hopes that Kalan can lean a little less on the crutch of Harley's monologuing going forward, and that the artistic effort can be beefed up a bit, but the changing of the guard for the HQ title is not off to a bad start at all.

Harley must be one of the most difficult characters in comics to write and draw. The fans expectation alone must make any new team tremble waiting the out pouring of good or bad reviews. My 2 cents was it was great fun and the art was wonderful. Plenty of one liners and a great new look. Definitely on my pull list........Jonn

I don't know.. Not bad, but not good either... Okay so coming from someone who did read the whole Stephanie Phillips run and one of the minority that enjoyed a good amount of it I must say this is not a good start to a new Harley Quinn run. Tini Howard turned me off completely so I've been out of the Harley comics since issue #30 I think? I was pissed then because I thought Phillips was really getting a good beat on Harley and just when it was really getting good (for me personally) they took her off in place of Howard, like why? So I heard recently that they started a new run with this writer and honestly there is good potential here in the writing style. Elliot certainly has a good grasp of Harley's ebb and flow and how she perceive s the world around her but what is really dragging it down is this art style. I am so sick of this Disney cartoon style for Harley Quinn, the anarchist, the "villain" and I guess sometimes anti-hero to but I prefer when she is full evil. Phillips played around with this good guy bad guy side of Harley but I thought it worked giving the context of each scenario. This comic has no hook at all that makes me look forward to reading the next issue which I am about to do. Of course none of these writers hold a candle to Paul Dini' previous works but we have to work with what we have right now. Writing is good could use a little less pop culture to it, and a little more grit, art style needs to change asap, this art is crap and totally water down the badass Harley really could be. Harley can still be goofy (I guess) but she needs a badass look or something more that pops. I like the hairstyle she has, but nothing stands out about the costume at all. Begrudgingly going to read #45 but not enthusiastic to do so... more
