Harley Quinn: Vote Harley Review



Finished reading Harley Quinn: Vote Harley, concluding writers Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti's run with Harley as her conflict with the mayor of New York with Harley deciding to run for office. The book open with Harley and her friends are working together with Chief Spoonsdale to stop an illegal car distribution as Harley announces to the press that she is running for mayor of New York. This instantly gains the attention of the current mayor and along with his assistant they plan to sabotage Harley's campaign by any means with the hope to stop her from winning the election. The last story within the book sees Harley and her friends are dealing with the aftermath of their confrontation with the mayor as Harley takes some time to think by going to the roller derby before taking up on Tony's offer to join him and Quinne on their way down to Florida as they pick up Poison Ivy along the way as Harley also plans on going to her parents home on the way. Overall this was an amazing book as it brings an end to writers Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti's time with the character by continuing with the great comedy that has been a staple throughout the series while bringing a level drama and suspense that bring some moments that plays with the heart. There is an amazing amount of character interactions and development throughout the book with Harley's relationships between her boyfriend Mason become a vocal point throughout the book especially with how events transpire within the book that effects the two especially for Harley at the end of the book. The art throughout the book is great as each of the art teams do a great job in bringing the book to life with the changing art style works extremely well with how the types of story and tone of the book changes in different part that make the more dramatic parts extremely effective along with the comedic moments. 9/10.
