Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys Review



Finished reading Harley Quinn and Her Gang of Harleys, spinning out of the pages of DC's main Harley Quinn series as writer Frank Tieri and Harley Quinn cowriter Jimmy Palmiotti gives Harley's gang their own story when Harley is kidnapped. The book opens with Holly Hamden, the gang's coach get up to speed on recant events of the main Harley Quinn series with how Harley came to have her own team and who each member is before jumping right into the action as the whole group is fighting at a market in Brooklyn only for Harley to appear to get kidnapped when she separates from the group. After trying to look for Harley the gang discover that it was only a training exercise, however when Holly and Tony try to contact Harley they find out that she has truly been kidnapped by a woman named Harley Sinn. Overall this was a good book as it brings Harley's gang to the forefront of their own story due to Harley being kidnapped allows for the gang to further grow as characters. While bring back Captain Strong in more of a supporting role brings some great moments with how he's use within the story. The reveal of Harley Sinn's origin if great as it allows for the villain to be shown as a very sympathetic character with her life is depicted. The art by Mauricet is great as it captures the feel and aesthetic of the main Harley book while also making their own and accompanying the story extremely well. 7.5/10.
