A new take on an original… Badgirl? Anti-heroine? You’re never sure where Harley Quinn stands on the spectrum of good - bad. Even in this remake of her original story all the pieces are here - Poison Ivy as just Ivy, The Joker and even Bruce makes an appearance. However that is as far as the similarities go. In this new story about Harley Quinn the author brings social elements to the table touching on the problems the LGBTQ+ community faces, gentrification, the economic divide, and even climate change. All these topics can’t be addressed at a very deep level; however this graphic novel is a good way to pique the interest of readers while they get their DC Comic fix. Readers of the books Birds of Prey, Ms Marvel, Nubia and Real One should pick this one up. --Claudio Leon
