"Vote Harley" conclusion! One of the people Harley loves most in this world is dead, and the Mayor is to blame! Revenge won't make Harley feel better...but that doesn't mean she won't take it!

    Harley Quinn#32 hits every note it sets out to reach. There's emotion, stakes, and a payoff. Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner have written such a great character and it's sad they're leaving the book in two issues. But, what they've given us is definitely something we should be thankful for this holiday. Read Full Review

    Comicosity - Heather Joy Nov 22, 2017

    In short, Harley Quinn #32 is incomparable. It's strong, passionate, emotional, and an example of some of the best writing in comics today. The praises cannot be sung nearly enough. Read Full Review

    A fantastic story that definitely isn't suitable for children. The art was great, and if you get the choice, go for the variant cover. Read Full Review

    The Pop Break - Sheena Fisher Nov 23, 2017

    I can say that I personally liked the way this tale ends. Everything is fitting for each of the characters. And, of course I didn't want Mason to die, but I think his death really helped fuel the level of revenge we get to see from Harley. Read Full Review

    A violent, sad, angry and emotionally resonant issue of Harley Quinn. Grab this one and the rest of this arc, kids! Read Full Review

    This was a satisfying conclusion to the current era of Harley Quinn. From here, I feel the title/character could go anywhere, and I appreciate that freedom. Read Full Review

    AIPT - Brian Clements Nov 29, 2017

    Harley has grown stronger issue by issue, setting aside the anchor around her neck, finding love and friendship, and losing that which she truly cared about. It should affect her moving forward. Let's hope that this isn't the end of this new, better Harley Quinn. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Cat Wyatt Nov 22, 2017

    Along with a wonderful cover are a few stunning and memorable images inside the issue. One I've described in detail above, but there are a handful of others (such as the second page, where Harley has her makeup running and her nose red from crying). The artists do a fantastic job with close-ups, but unfortunately, this art style loses definition in the faces as they get pushed away from the foreground. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Elena Carrillo Nov 22, 2017

    This is a rough book to read, but probably a necessary one as it brings closure to a long-standing rivalry in Harley's life which has now brought her some serious grief with potential lasting implications. For those of you who love Harley at either end of being at her most violent and/or at her most vulnerable, this is a book you probably shouldn't skip. Conner and Palmiotti consistently know how to manage both pacing and tone to keep a book from imploding with too much melodrama, so while objectively this may be "a bit much", emotionally it hits a lot of very satisfying notes.

    Weird Science - Reggie Hemingway Nov 22, 2017

    A contrived but exceedingly violent final act is good enough for this lovable psychotic jester comic book. Despite the story line running a bit off the rails, readers should be satisfied with the conclusion. And it looks spectacular, as is nearly always true for this book. Read Full Review

    Henchman-4-Hire - Sean Ian Mills Nov 25, 2017

    This is still a pretty awesome, emotional and, at times, satisfying issue of Harley Quinn, but I just think the creative team could have gone bigger and better, considering we're at the end of their epic run. Read Full Review

    The carnage is fun, but it's nice to see Harley react like an actual human being under the circumstances Read Full Review

    IGN - Blair Marnell Nov 23, 2017

    Harley Quinn's tone has taken a pretty dramatic turn in the last two issues. It's a very big departure from the majority of Palmiotti & Conner's run. So much so that adding this new layer of tragedy to Harley feels inconsistent with the comedic identity that this book had established. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield Nov 22, 2017

    This is the conclusion of stories going back almost five years now, so it's disappointing to see the entire thing come down to a hastily arranged haze of carnage and explosions. Read Full Review
