The trials are over, and Harley Quinn has won! Or has she? Now imbued with the awesome power of the Angel of Retribution, Harley is given an impossible choice-and a chance to raise a loved one from the dead! Choose wisely, Harley...the fate of the universe hangs in the balance!
If you're looking for a ton of zany Harley Quinn action, a lot of witty quips, and just the general insanity that comes with the character you're not going to find it here. Instead, Sam Humphries delivers one of the most emotionally powerful and moving issues of the story thus far. Read Full Review
"The Trials of Harley Quinn" has been one of the most inventive and complex storylines the character's ever been through, combining cosmic adventures with meta-commentary on event books and a very human story of Harley grappling with the death of her mother. Read Full Review

Harley Quinn #66 closes one door and opens the big one, that draws us into the “Year of the Villain” theme currently running through the DC Universe. It's been mentioned in previous Harley Quinn issues, but the next one boasts to close it all. I really loved what they did here and what storylines they are establishing for future books.

The coming changeover in Harley Quinns life accompanies a promising development in Quinns interaction with the Year of the Villain crossover event. Having fully resolved Harleys cosmic trials, Humphries and Basri allow Harley to turn her attention to the fourth wall once more.

This conclusion to the Trials of Harley Quinn arc was a really great wrap up not only to the Trials themselves, but to an arc about Harley growing as a character. It was also wonderful to spend more time with Harley actually facing a problem head on, and being able to work through her mom's passing. It's not the end of her growth, or even the end of her struggling with losing a parent, but I think it's a strong step in helping strengthen who she is, and how she interacts with the world.

Where they go from now, is anyone's guess though. Read Full Review
A slick but reasonably empty experience to wrap up a too long and tiring arc. This book is cooked and needs a new writer. Read Full Review
Look, I can complain all day about how I hate this version of Harley, but Sam has found a better use than anyone in the past by making her extremely meta and confirming she is outside of continuity. This had some fun moments.
