I loved this issue and how crazy it is. This is a perfect snap shot of how fun and oddHarley Quinn and her life are. Read Full Review

So it ends with Ivy flying away and Harley has a tear running down her face. I know this is obviously a bit of a landmark issue and I do hope Ivy resurfaces for guest spots. She is such a cool character and Harley and her play off each other so well. I saw Poison Ivy appear in a regular Bat-Book recently, used as the villainous foil, and it struck me just how soulless and empty that persona is compared to the more complex and affectionate character that has graced these pages of Harley Quinn, or Ivy's own recent miniseries. I understand different stories call for different interpretations, but as her plane soared through the sky and out of Harley's life, I knew which version I preferred. A kind of sad, kind of happy, but always beautiful issue. Read Full Review

The writers have cleverly set up a Joker sub-plot from a few issues back – involving Harley's time at Arkham. And this issue continues the flashbacks to her time as Doctor Harleen Quinzel, respected psychiatrist. Her interview of the Clown Prince of Crime provides a surprisingly in depth analysis of The Joker's psyche. It's a rare treat that steps away from the main plot ofHarley Quinn #8 for a few moments. We can't help but notice that The Joker has been considerably absent in the Rebirth run so far. Hopefully they'll be bringing one of the three versions of him back pretty soon. Overall,Harley Quinn #8 is a step away from her main story, and allows the anti-hero to stop and catch her breath. Usually, filler issues aren't that great. However – this is the ultimate exception. Don't miss out. Read Full Review

It's unfortunate that the long-awaited Bahamas vacation only amounts to one single-issue adventure, but it makes for an enjoyable read all the same. Read Full Review

And besides, like Harley and Ivy, who doesn't want to get away once in a while? Read Full Review

Not the best issue in the series, but it does contain a lot of nudity. So on second thought, it is the best issue in the series. Read Full Review

I definitely like these somewhat quieter moments between the big arcs, but I'm not a fan of Harley and Ivy, so my enjoyment of this particular adventure was tempered by that bias. Even so, there's the usual funny (and occasionally perverse) humor to buoy the story along, and the subplot of Harley's past with the Joker coming back to haunt her continues to develop. Just seeing Dr. Quinn and Mistah J sparring across a table is entertaining enough for me, and it was good to have this transition so that Harley can grow her mohawk out! Sy Borgman and Zena Bendamova feel a bit played out to me at this point, but I'm glad they're still in the stable of Harley's supporting cast: Conner and Palmiotti always have such interesting ways of tying things together in Harley's world, so no doubt these two won't be disappearing completely any time soon–and they may yet serve in interesting, fresh ways.

If you're going to go with a story like this then save it for an Elseworld's series or a Vertigo book. I know that Palmiotti and Conner think that they are being clever, but it the whole thing came off as the same gag we all saw in the original Austin Powers movie " Twenty years ago. If you're going to take the audiences there then have the stones to go all the way. Read Full Review

Pretty typical Harley issue, with the future Joker storyline being a very anticipated few issues. I have continue to enjoy this comic.

I generally agree with all the positivity of the Critic reviews so far, Konrad, Sean, Eammon, Jesse, Patrick, Reggie, and Elena. And if I were more in the mood for 20 pages of only downtime dialoguing at my sitdown read, the rating would probably be higher. A proper cheesecake bikini shot would have been fitting too. Resolving the on again off again Ivy/Harley lovefest was very respectful character development given them. The Joker flashback was alright too.
