Harley Quinn #45

The tone of this issue is a little all over the place, but Kalan is building a new supporting cast for Harley much in the same way that Palmiotti/Conner and Phillips did, and that goes a long way to turning it from a comedy book into something with real emotion behind it. Read Full Review

This second issue of the new run on Harley Quinn is another step in a satisfying direction. With delicately nuanced messaging, appropriately fun art, and no shortage of gags, #45 is everything you could reasonably expect from your standard monthly HQ release. Read Full Review

It remains to be seen where the whole fight for Throatcutter Hill is going and what part all the characters will have to play. Whether this will be an ongoing saga or just a passing fad. There were a few good laughs but overall, this wasn't a favorite issue. Not even the toilet humor, charming though it was, gave more than a chuckle. We will have to wait and see what the future holds and just what's next for the Harley Quinn Destructive Agency. Til next time friends. Read Full Review

Sorry to every other comic that hit the stands this week but for me and my pal this was an absolute and utter hilarious home run. This oozes charm , fun and at my advancing age.....a red face at how much I laughed till I cried....if comics were made to just entertain an old man on a Saturday night in , then Harley Quinn hit the number 1 spot for Xmas.....JM

only 1 critical review and your 1 user review - that usually spells big trouble, especially for a book that just started a new run

Slightly improved from issue #44 I guess... ...That's not saying much though. While there was more action in this issue the action was predictable, lame and poorly drawn. There's one panel where Harley goes for the final blow with her bat against this generic henchman and it is so bad. The proportion makes no sense and it has no impact at all. That action panel was the perfect opportunity to do a bloody crazy drawing of Harley smashing the dudes face in but no this is Harley for kids I guess. Which is absurd because Harley is constantly letting us know what a horny lesbian she is, because you know tumblr and shipping is just dandy when writing comics. As I stated previously, this Disnification of Harley is still a mistake that needs t o stop, and they need to bring grit and roughness to Harley comics. The writing is slightly cute and the whole sympathy for the Chicken Fingers character is touching but really it all feels like nothing. Like there's no meaning at all to anything I'm reading here. I get what the author's beef and message is throughout the comic but honestly it is really not a good motivation for Harley. It just feels like reaching for ideas here that aren't really there. Last issue I gave a 4 and only made this a five because it was a little better in terms of pacing. Still crap though, not diarrhea, its that kind of crap that no matter how hard you try to squeeze it out it just sticks there ya know? Poor Harley, she deserves better... more
