Harley Quinn: Red Meat Review

Finished reading Harley Quinn: Red Meat, continuing writers Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti second Harley Quinn ongoing series as Harley finds herself against a subterranean conquer, a group of cannibals and a girl from the future who has been inspired by Batman. The book opens with Harley and Harlem Harley taking a motorbike they've earned back home after a job when as group or humanoid insects smash through a window with a giant cocoon that has the subterranean villain named Zorcrom who plans on taking over the surface world.,The second story sees the return police chief Spoonsdale as he has come to meet with Harley in hopes that she can help him solve a case as multiple homeless people around the state of New York have been going missing as a group of cannibals that have been hired by the mayors office have been kidnapping them to feast upon. The final story of the book sees the end to Batman fan from the future, Devani Kage's story as she finds herself transported to the present in hopes to kill Harley and prevent her future from happening. Only for Harley to be save by someone close to her in a intriguing way. Overall this was a great book as it continues Harley’s adventures in Coney Island as the book puts focus on developing Harley as she meets with Power Girl and and gets a new job from the police chief Spoonsdale. While Red Tool also gets a nice amount of development that explore more of his origin, while also continuing to be one of the most hilarious ant interesting of Harley’s supporting cast. The structure of the book is interesting and works surprisingly well as writers Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti craft several overarching stories that criminate together extremely well. Additionally the great art of the book does a excellent job in differentiating between the multiple art styles and not feeling out of place during the transitions. 8/10.
