This is it, folks...we have to drop the Multiversal counterbalance serum at the center of the photon disruption before the imminent collapse of the entire Multiverse...JUST KIDDING. But could you imagine if that was how this story ended? Noooo thanks. We're gonna save the world the ol- fashioned way-with a large undead zombie, 50-80 Harleys from other universes, Kevin, and POISON IVY!
Harley Quinn #27 is a warm and loving ending to a really remarkable run. Read Full Review
Harley Quinn #27 does give answers, but one big question remains where's Ivy? This is a thread that hasn't been answered in this issue. That seems remiss in every facet, particularly given how much impact she has in this arc's conclusion. I'm crossing my fingers that this specific question will be answered in Harley Quinn #28!

Harley Quinn #27 concludes the Who Killed Harley Quinn? storyline with a fun trip through the multiverse, along with some hilarious, horrific and touching moments. Harley Quinn and Old Lady Harley make a great team and I hope we get to see more of the other alternate Earth Harleys in the future. Read Full Review
There really is no more quintessentially Harley way to end a run than to have the character invade another world in the multiverse to rescue someone else's girlfriend, and it's a lot of fun. But ending the run this way also nicely pays homage to the fact that Harley and Ivy have become one of the truly indispensable couples in the DCU, along with Clark and Lois. Read Full Review
Harley Quinn #27 ends the series as it began - with contrived, nonsensical shenanigans. However, Phillips steps into Harley's narration to deliver a sincere message about love, express an odd self-awareness over her mistakes in this run, and cap the finale with a heartfelt goodbye. Read Full Review
No new ground is tread here and as Harley stories go, it's just okay, but that's good enough. Read Full Review
Phillips has good instincts for the chaos and the craziness that is Harley. Shes just not working with it in a way that would result in a well-framed plot. And maybe Harley doesnt NEED a well-framed plot, but the series is always a lot more satisfying when theres some kind of an eye on a steadier story construction than the one that Phillips has managed the past few issues. All of the right elements are clearly apparent in Phillipss work, though. Given the right momentum, she could cast Harley in really fun new directions. Read Full Review
Readers of these reviews know that despite the fit with the character, I have never enjoyed Riley Rossmo's art, and the substitution of Matteo Lolli's realistic linework and expressive faces has been a dramatic improvement. Read Full Review
This is the first issue of this Harley Quinn series I've read because I'm not really a Phillips fan. I saw it and figured why not read the finale to whatever she's been writing since I love Harley and I gotta say I didn't hate it. Not really sure what's been going on in the story but turns out I didn't need to know to enjoy it. Just stupid Harley hijinks with some awesome Ivy heartfelt moments. Pretty decent.
Fun ending to a run that I really enjoyed for the most part, but kind of fell off a bit towards the end. While this issue wasn't quite what I expected, it still was an entertaining finale to Phillips' nearly-30-issue stint. I probably would have given this a 7 overall, but the last few pages bumped this up half a point for me. I'm extremely excited for Harley and Ivy to be reunited when Tini Howard takes over, and in G. Willow Wilson's current Poison Ivy run as well. Overall, an entertaining ending to a very fun run of Harley Quinn.
Bit of a weird ending. This run has had its ups and downs, but it has been such a relief after the Rebirth years. I cannot stand Harley sometimes, because they insist on writing her as profitably crazy, which consists of terrible humor and annoyance. I like when she's an actual character, and Stephanie Phillips gave us that.
