    Harley Quinn...to kill The Joker?

    Synopsis: Harley goes after the Joker to do the unthinkable.

    What's Good?

    Finally, Another Harley Quinn story! After the recent stories with Selina, I was afraid that Harley would never get any time in this series. I haven't forgotten her origins as a psychologist, and it works throughout this issue. I did like the warped version of Harley's tales of the people she encountered, including Basil Karlo's aka. Clayface's backstory. The way she's hallucinating that the Joker is near by laughing ,is a nice touch too. 
     
    Great cover by Guillem March.

    What's Bad?

    Really? Harley Quinn evil? Killing people (I know that guard got killed but I'm not sure about Alice Sinner)? The idea still hasn't grasped my mind yet. I mean, Harley is supposed to be the fun one in the group, and Poison Ivy is the one that might kill you if tempted. I know Harley is capable of evil things, but it's very out of the ordinary in this issue, and we also don't find out why exactly is she doing this other than looking for The Joker.

    The artwork is not that bad, but the pages where Harley tells each character's flashbacks are bit hard to follow. I know what the artist was trying to do, but trying to follow the panels with the dialogue made my head hurt.

    Overall: This story shows promise. I haven't completely given up on this series.

      Issue 20 of Gotham City Sirens is written by Peter Calloway, and the focus of the story is on Harley Quinn, and her sort of crazy self discovery.  SPOILERS BELOW.  The Good  Sometimes you get a cover that completely encompasses everything that happens in the issue. This is, in my opinion, an example of such cases. The cover to this issue of Gotham City Sirens showcases Harley Quinn suspended over the Joker's open mouth as if he is about to devour her. In his hand, he cups both Catwoman and Poiso...

      THE GOOD: The goods things abou the issue is the art. I like it that it only takes four items to get into Arkham one of the most secure places in the DC Universe.  THE BAD: The bad things are that while I think it is funny that you only need four items. Did nobody else think that Harley would have done this before when she loved Joker. It shows to much of other peple then the SIrens Catwoman and Poison Ivy aren't even in it almost at all except for thre cover. I hat eit that it doesn't explain w...
