Down the rabbit hole and through the looking glass, and what did Harley and Ivy find there? A tea party with some very unexpected and uninvited guests! It turns out the Mad Hatter has a game of his own to play, and Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn must decide between fight and flight. And is that gift Lex Luthor dropped off for Ivy actually of any use, or is it just a steaming pile of manure?

    Adriana Melo delivers some amazing panels in this issue. Not only do the characters look great, but Hatter is drawn with ever increasing menace as the issue progresses and the action scenes are fantastic. Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - Kate Snchez

    Nov 13, 2019

    Overall, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy #3is a good issue, but it isn't extraordinary. The Mad Hatter's plan for Harley seems out of nowhere and I question its inclusion in the plot outside of showing an armored Ivy taking down baddies. Which, while it doesn't damage the narrative, does throw it off slightly. That being said, I am pulled into Harley and Ivy's relationship and friendship and I'm in love with how they fight for each other. With three more issues, I'm excited to see how this mini-series concludes. Read Full Review

    The fact that Harley and Ivy get in a convertible leads me to fear that this ends the way Thelma and Louise ends. Well, OK, that is not really possible. DC is not killing off Harley Quinn any time soon. Still, this does not look like it is going to have a good ending for anyone involved. I feel that Houser and Melo are setting us up to be emotionally destroyed by the end. I am not saying that is a bad thing. Good writing and good art will do that. Read Full Review

    That's pretty much it for the issue. Not a lot happens but it is entertaining. The art is the best part as is the characterization's Houser gives the two leads in this slight, but enjoyable series. Read Full Review

    Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy #3 is a book that can be summed up as just fun, despite the potential to be great. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield

    The idea of a Harley and Ivy road trip is the kind of concept fans have been clamoring for years for, and the best part of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy #3 is definitely watching the way these two dysfunctional girlfriends look out for each other. I'm not sure that's quite enough to carry a series, though, as three issues in, the obstacles they face are starting to feel less serious. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Nicholas Finch

    Reviewing this series has actually been one of the most challenging tasks I've had on this website so far: in finding new things to say about each issue, addressing critiques in a constructive manner, and establishing how I score my reviews. This is not a fantastic series, but it's in no ways a bad one either. It walks that nebulous middle ground that's hard to rate" but not hard to recommend if you have some spare time and love the characters. If you don't? We'll see how the full miniseries pans out.

    The creative team seems to be growing more comfortable with the duo, and I'm curious to see if Ivy's mental state will be the primary plot driver or if they'll introduce more complications soon. Read Full Review

    I had some complains about #1 and #2. It felt that the book was a Harley Quinn book because of the focus on her but #3 starts showing us us the Ivy side of things. We see how Pammy is slowly getting better, learning to control her powers and her new connection to the Green. There are a lot of questions to be answered. Remember that Ivy literally knows every secret in the world (Everyone Loves Ivy) and we still don't know what the new Parliament of Flowers wants from her.

    I may just be going insane, but I'd say this issue worked pretty well.

    I like their relationship here, like when Ivy offered to turn around and finish the job. Simple and effective.

    Feels like somebody made a comic out of a Frank Cho's idea for a variant cover of Harley's solo series, because other than that, I can't explain why it was made, and what story does it try to tell. It's a bland, boring, unfunny soap opera, albeit with really pretty art, I have to acknowledge that. While it tries to address, and to a degree, fix the Ivy mess Tom King caused with Heroes in Crisis, the series so far seemed to me like all style, no substance, completely hollow and soulless. Yet another skipper with little to no story value.
