    The first issues did a solid job of establishing this world of free love and expression. But issue #3 is where things start to come to a head with PG and HQ taking on Vartox himself. As always, the art is great and brings a new world to life and the characters are well-established. Its satire of real-life issues such as representation and gender equality are always a treat. The only sad thing is that the space adventures of Harley Quinn and Power Girl eventually have to come to an end. Read Full Review

    The Batman Universe - Gerry Green Aug 20, 2015

    I know that, as a HQ and a HST fan, I am a ridiculous bulls eye for the target market for this book. However, I really appreciated Conner and Palmiotti's writing so I am going to give it a stupid good rating. I understand that someone who isn't in my demographic might not appreciate the gags like I did. But if you are a person with the right kind of eyes willing to follow these crazy ladies on a great shark hunt, I highly recommend you buy the issue and take the ride. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Elena Carrillo Aug 19, 2015

    This book gets funnier the more you read and reflect on it, and the art team is top-notch. For sheer old-fashioned comic entertainment, this really can't be beat. Okay, so it's full of sophomoric sex gags and giant phalluses, but it's not over-gross and it always keeps things light and lively. Harley and Power Girl might yet make a good team if they can work together better, but I doubt Peej will ever be comfortable doing things the "Harley Way". Read Full Review

    Well if I've come to understand anything about comics, if you want a title to be fun and clever, just give it Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti & Justin Gray and you'll have hit. If you don't believe me well you're not reading Harley Quinn and Power Girl. Read Full Review

    IGN - Jesse Schedeen Aug 20, 2015

    The creative team behind this Harley Quinn spinoff are laboring under no delusions about this being a story-driven comic. The goal is clearly to have as much fun with the Harley/Power Girl team-up as possible over the course of six issues, and it's definitely succeeding. Read Full Review

    This is a lot of fun, and they work in a lot of good references. Read Full Review

    It's silly fun in outer space. Harley is a force of chaos, and it's amusing hearing Power Girl be the voice of reason. Much as I like PG, she's usually the one pushing things, not trying to rein them in. Read Full Review

    The Rainbow Hub - Ten Van Winkle Aug 21, 2015

    It wants to laugh a lot, think a little, and punch the porn-stache off scantily-dressed men. So far, even with the pointless drug pages, this series is still accomplishing what it set out to do, and Harley or Kara fans are still going to get a kick out of this consistent, chuckle-churning page-turner.

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Aug 19, 2015

    I want to like this book so bad, but unfortunately...it's so bad. I was such a huge fan of the original story that ran in Harley's solo book, but this is a mere shadow of that. The book has jokes and crazy situations, but most of them fall flat. Flat as a pancake. The art team may just have more members than Earth, Wind and Fire, but the transitions weren't jarring at all. It's just that the issue they illustrate is just not good at all. Read Full Review
