It's the moment we've been building toward for months! The rumble in the jungle! But actually in Gotham, because we're not in the jungle. It's the throwdown showdown between me, your hyper-verbal, semi-reformed former villain, and Verdict, the violent vigilante vowing to have vengeance on...well, everybody! Can I clear my name after being locked up for a crime I didn't commit?
Harley Quinn #17 didn't only give us an amazing finish to a great story, but also a perfect way for the character to move forward. I can't wait to see what's still to come in Harley's future. Read Full Review
Harley Quinn #17 is a heartfelt end to an arc. It seeks to try and patch up the pain that has been felt throughout the arc whilst also forcing the characters to go through more. Read Full Review
It's a solid arc, but I'm ready for this book to get a little more wild and wacky in the coming arc. Read Full Review
This is a satisfying finish to the Verdict arc and remains a well-crafted and interesting book. The complex and multidimensional Harley we are getting is exactly what the character deserves. Read Full Review

Phillips can write a good Harley. But this issue just isn't it. Nothing about this issue is it. Read Full Review
Neither the story or the characters make sense or have consistency. The storytelling pretends to have depth through some occasional monologues, though everything is actually very shallow. Read Full Review
A decent conclusion to an arc that started very strong.
Harley Quinn's journey feels to have moved, it just took 17 issues to get here.
I love that Phillips uses the comicbook page to its fullest filling it up with gags and writing, however, sometimes, it's so wordy without saying much or adding to the action.
If it were me, this would be the series finale and have the book rebooted with a different creative team. 17 issues is long enough to find one's footing.
