I'm just confused. There's so much potential here. SO MUCH. Not only is Harley cute, funny, and cheerful - but she can be scary as hell. And there's nothing holding her back - nothing stopping her from killing or maiming or doing whatever she damn well pleases.So why is this series so dumb? WHY?This is even worse than Volume One. And I really thought/hoped this was going to be an improvement.The worst entry in this collection is the episode where (view spoiler)[the Joker and Harley are back toge...
2.5 stars"Kneel before me, slaves! Queen Eidijamon demands it!" -- Queen Eidijamon, villainess"Did she just call us slaves?" -- Power Girl"Did she just call herself 'Queen I Did Yer Mom'?" -- Harley QuinnA disappointment after Vol. 1: Hot in the City and the stand-alone (yet still connected, in a way) Harley Quinn and Power Girl, this edition just felt choppy. The lightweight stories here were not as good and did not flow together like the initial volume, and the humor was inconsistent and/or fa...
I love Harley Quinn. That is all.
Star Rating: 3.5 StarsTouch & go... not my FAV, but i liked it. It had some great moments! Had some not so great moments as well. Still love my harley! ♥️
Pretty much my last review, with Power Girl. New-52 Harley is too over-the-top for me, and I like the "jester" version better than the "hapless murderess".Some funny episodes as she cons an amnesiac Power Girl into a team-up, and again as she drops by Comic-Con.
I received a copy from Netgalley for an honest review.This combines Harley Quinn Issues 9 - 12, Annual 1, Future's End 1 and the San Diego Comic Con Special 1. Let's have more fun with our favorite Harlequin. When Harley becomes involved with Skate Club, she finds her opponent may be too much for her. Then in Future's End, Harley washes ashore after a plane crash and discovers that an old flame is in charge of the island or is he? Then, after Power Girl crashes into the beach in front of Harley,...
I liked this one a lot better than the one! I liked the storyline a lot more, but I do wish they would just drop the whole skate club thing, it's just not working for the story. But I did really love the Comic Con story. It was pretty hilarious to see the real Harley with all the Harley cosplayers! We also got ANOTHER origin story, seriously, can't we just stick with the original? How many origin stories do we need? Anyhow, I still really enjoyed this book. 4 out of 5 stars :D
(B) 75% | More than SatisfactoryNotes: Too try-hard, humor's off the mark, a loony lark too unrestrained it's scatterbrained, no sparks outside its central arc.
It was like reading a super-long fart joke.Only not as funny.Although, no offense to anyone who really liked this. I'm not trying to belittle what you like, or say that you have no taste. I just personally didn't like this one. Forgive me.Volume 2 was a bit of a mixed bag. But most of the bag sucked.There are moments where greatness poked its head out and smiled, but the vast majority of it just fell reallyreallyreally short of anything that I could find remotely enjoyable.I think Amanda Conner
Harley Quinn is without doubt one of my favorite characters. I mean what's not to like; she is quite an unstable psychiatrist, the on and off girlfriend of the Joker. Speaking of the Joker, he is in this graphic novel, which I found really great, even though he did try to make some islanders sacrifice her in a Volcano. Well, that was until he realized that that he too was to be sacrificed, then suddenly he was on Harley's side, ah love!Also Harley visits Comic-Con, chaos and destruction is, of c...
I'm coming to the realization that I do like the Suicide Squad incarnation of Harley more than the one in her solo outing in this run. I think that this solo series is geared towards readers who want a more goofy version of Quinn. I can deal with the fact that she's not really a hero, more appropriately classed as a villain, but her mayhem in this series is played for laughs and that's hard to get behind for me.Many times, the story was hard to follow and downright incomprehensible. I did like t...
Full disclosure: all I now about Harley Quinn comes from vague memories of the 90s animated series and the TV show Birds of Prey (which might not be the best DC adaptation ever, it seems). Also, I haven't read the first volume, but it didn't prevent me from enjoying the present one. Power Outage is a mix of single-issue stories and a longer arc, hinted at in the two first storie and unfolding in chapters 4, 5 and 6. Knowledges of Future's End might be handy to fully understand Crappily Ever Afte...
Harleen Quinzel is my favorite, and this edition spoke to just that. With everything from the most ridiculous and outlandish (duping an amnesiac Power Girl), to the ironic (visiting San Diego Comic Con and hanging out with her own lookalikes), to the honest and impactful (Harley gives her backstory from childhood to Gotham to now).This was a great and funny read for any lover of Harley, or anyone wanting to know a little bit more about her.
Summing up. Boob jokes. random lesbian innuendo. ass jokes. Being female I should find it offensive or something, but I am not that sensitive. Some of it, just not funny.First issue was bad. Really, really bad. It mellows out a tiny bit throughout the rest of the issues. Not the boob jokes. They stay as strong as ever.My only excuse for giving this farce three stars... It has it's moments. Harley visits comic con was the best installment.
A lot of energy, humor, color and just pizazz that you don't find in a lot of superhero comics, I find. There's a Joker hook up which is interesting, and one of the best parts is when she goes to Comic Con to meet artists and writers. So because Amanda Conner (a woman) is doing this, and writing of Harley (a woman), does this make all the stereotypical boob-centric tight costumes and lesbian jokes okay, because she is a bad girl, and is this an example of owning her sexuality, a kind of post-fem...
Who said Harley Quinn is just Deadpool with boobs? Shut Up.Yes, there is a similarity in tone between the Deadpool book and this one, and Harley is just as insane, and loves to break the fourth wall as much as Wade Wilson, but the characters are very, very different. After reading this second volume, I realize that Harley is actually one of my favorite DC characters. I am quite happy with that, since I realized that as far as DC villains go, I only had one female character on my top ten list. Th...
I really wish Conner and Palmiotti would relinquish the reins of poor Harley Quinn. It's becoming clearer and clearer that they just don't know how to make her anything other than marginally entertaining. The humor is flat and Sandler-esque. The story is going nowhere. How many different times can we see "crazy Harley does something normal, but makes it crazy because she's so crazy. Crazy, right?!"Recently, the first issue of Convergence: Harley Quinn came out and I believe the writer was Steve
Harley Quinn is still on the loose in Brooklyn (mostly). This volume is a continuation of volume one, but does not stay in Brooklyn nor are the issues all part of a continuous tale. There are trips to Staten Island, the Bermuda Triangle (wacky tale with a tropical island, The Joker, and a volcano!) and a Power Girl sequence that was a blast! A very fun read!
4.70•Almost as entertaining as Vol. 1, really enjoyed it but didn't like the art work changes with HQ, I could see the differences in her design without even needed to check if it was a different artist. •Sometimes her face just looked weird and nothing like the face I loved from Vol. 1 •Now, to be fair, this is my first comic book series I've ever read and I've been made aware by friends that this can happen with comic books. So maybe it's just a me thing that I need to get use to?•Nevertheless...
Silly as usual, but not bad. The art is sexy, but also a little cartoony. The stories just seem a little wordy for me, as the word balloons sometime block out a lot of the art.This one guest starts Power Girl in a pretty funny story, and also has a few one shots such as Harley crashing the San Diego Comic Con. Overall a good volume for Harley fans, but the humor seems a little forced to me at times.
