DC, why don't you have Elsa Charretier drawing allthe things? Why aren't you sending gift baskets of cash to her house until sheagrees to draw two back-ups a month, at exorbitant rates that you are compelledto pay? Why aren't you fanning her with palm fronds and having a trained helpermonkey feed her succulent, ripened grapes off the stem? Is there a visionproblem at your offices, DC? Perhaps you need to do company-wide eye exams? Let'sset something up. In the meantime, please forward the appropriate chests ofrare gems and silks that Ms. Charretier needs to become exclusive at yourcompany. Thank you. Read Full Review
This is like a nice sweet piece of candy. It's fantastic to start, grows a bit dull in the middle, but when you take the crunch at the end it's satisfying as hell. And above all else, Harley Quinn is sweet. Read Full Review
Technically this issue qualifies as a series finale, even if DC is relaunching Harley Quinn in a mere seven days. But if this were the final chapter from Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti, it would serve as a satisfying conclusion. Read Full Review
I don't know what's in store for Harley Quinn, but at least this volume ends rather pleasantly. It's a simple, done-in-one story that shows off some of the best of Conner and Palmiotti's Harley. Read Full Review
For my rating, the first time I read through this issue I had every intention of giving it low marks. The plot was scattered and confusing. The side activities seemed pointless. The ending didn't resolve in any substantial way. However, after looking more closely at this issue I found more and more to like. There is a full page with Harley and Mr. Woodson that is positively joyful. And as a Poison Ivy fan, I loved the closeness between the two compromised heroes. The closer I looked and more I read the more I liked the issue. Read Full Review
Overall, this was a fine conclusion to this volume of Harley Quinn and did a good job of encapsulating what this series can do. If this were television, you could term it a season finale because they do plant seeds (that serves as a pun due to a Poison Ivy guest shot) for what's to come. Read Full Review
A great ending to this chapter in the character's history. I can't wait for more. Read Full Review
I hope with such a conclusion that we readers are wowed by Quinn's return to the comic page with the upcoming relaunch. With such a soft ending, the new beginning much be astounding. Read Full Review

Harley Quinn has had an amazing run with Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti holding the reigns from the crazy sled, so the flatness of this final issue is disappointing perhaps on multiple levels. Newcomer artist Elsa Charretier infuses the book with a good helping of wackiness, but there just isn't much of a story here and the action is just so-so. The good news is I'm sure this book will be great again when it comes back in August and frankly, for a 30 issue run to have only one "meh" issue is nothing whatsoever to sneeze at! Read Full Review
