The Producer’s scheme is in motion, and the GTO is on high alert as Gotham’s hope of a peaceful new horizon begins to collapse. Rattled and recovering from a close encounter with Starlet, Harley examines whether her complicated past with villainy is a burden or a boon to her new identity. She weighs two final options: break all ties and retire to a quiet life, or embrace the chaos, risk, and responsibility of protecting the people and the place that created her. The choice itself may be fantasy, as a targeted attack on Harley ends in tragedy and drives Bruce to a reckless decision that could extend his prison sentence indefinitely.
Hands down worth every read… reread… etc. Read Full Review
However, this issue had some many layers to it. Harley is a pearl strung together with Ivy, Joker/Jack, Bruce, her children….and her original children. You'll cry!!! Read Full Review

The penultimate issue of this spin-off from the White Knight verse is one of the best issues yet, with chaotic twists at every turn and the surprising appearance of several fan-favorites. Read Full Review
The penultimate issue of White Knight: Harley Quinn increases the stakes and emotional payoff of this little spinoff that grew into its own story in a very organic fashion, giving us a real sense of intensity going into the finale of this very well-crafted series. Read Full Review
Batman: White Knight Presents: Harley Quinn #5 tosses in a bunch of cameos and makes a lot of nice, but ultimately doesn't make much progress on the story. The art is good, and honestly, everything about the book is skillfully done, but cameos and Easter Eggs are a poor substitute for story. Read Full Review
Issue #5 of White Knight Presents: Harley Quinn isn't as frustrating or tedious as the past couple of issues in the series. And the art has started to mix things up a bit " even if it doesn't reach the beautimous heights of the first issues. The Starlet is still a wet plop of a villain, but at least this time around she catalyzes some melodramatic action. Still, unless there's some brilliant twist I'm not foreseeing, the series has squandered its intriguing mystery/whodunnit potential. And, sadly, there isn't much left to enjoy now that the intrigue is gone. Read Full Review
With this Future State -nonsense DC has been releasing these past months, this book is currently the only one I'm really invested in. While I really liked this one, I'm a bit annoyed hopw miss-leading the cover is. As a huge Red Hood fan, it's a bit disappointing to see Jason here when they aren't really doing anything with him. That seems to change in the next issue.
And the biggest annoyance is that due to Murphyverse being so different, I'm really interested to see Jason's backstory.
But that problem aside, it's still a really strong series. Collins writes Harley so well and this version is so much better than the one we have in the main universe.
I somehow forgot to finish reading this series, but picked it back up here and it's still good. I like this villain, is she an original villain?
Poor Lou though...

White Knight Harley may have lost some of her initial momentum, but the book still is an entertaining and immersive read worth picking up. The main plot thickens every issue, and focuses only more on the theme of maternity, serving us more than few parallels between the main characters involved in the story. There is this triangle of mothers, each impacting their children in a different way. On top of it, Collins brings in the concept of masks we all wear depending on situation, which makes me think of Ferdydurke, except contary to it, it's written in a way accessible enough not to require a shot of LSD to make something out of it.
Overall I enjoy this comic. At this point it's pretty clear what and how it is. If you didn't like more
I'm not a big fan of this series, except when they sat on Harley, the only thing I can say is that I don't get caught. The cover is tricky they make Jason Todd fans believe that there will be a part for this character, but one they draw him as if he were older than Bruce two is stupid the way Bruce catches him to escape. And from there they focus on Harley a character I'm not a fan of, maybe I'm being tough in qualifying, but blame DC for trying to get my attention to this book with tricks.
