I still do not have any complaints in this book. While I realize that this graphic crime content may not be what everyone is looking for in their DC book, it continues to be my favorite story right now. The progression and the pace is consistent, the story is intriguing, characterizations and dialogue is spot on, the art is beautiful. What else do you want? I only want to know what happens next. Check it out for yourself.9.5/10 Read Full Review
This is definitely the darkest Harley Quinn story DC is publishing right now, but that might not be a bad thing. Read Full Review
Aside from a nagging narrative flow issue, I'm digging what Garcia and company are doing. We're getting a true to life depiction of what Joker would be like while at the same time getting an empowered and complex version of Harley Quinn that could stand up to all other versions of the character.

Overall, it is a decent issue. I just wish it would hurry up. Read Full Review
Black Label is known for its unusual takes, but Joker/Harley: Criminal Sanity, with Harley Quinn being the straight woman in a serial killer thriller, is so far afield that it almost feels like a creator-owned comic that was retrofitted into this format. Read Full Review
That being said, Joker/Harley: Criminal Sanity #3isn't bad and fans of detective mysteries and true crime will enjoy it. If you take away expectations about this being a Harley Quinn story, the series is an entertaining dive into the mind of mass murder and the woman trying to stop him. If you are looking for a Harley story that is more truthful to the character I recommend the Harleen miniseries. Read Full Review
I don't feel great about giving a book a low score, especially considering it's rather proficient on a technical level. I'll ask some of my fellow reviewers what they think of it, but to me, it's a shame that the intriguing premise is marred by generic crime-solving tropes, self-indulgent quotes and a lack of compelling characters, instead of standing out on its own.

Better than the last issue, but still feeling like it didn't need the Harley and Joker paint.
This is boring and derivative of other, better things.
So, Joker is some edgy punk kid, great. This series is a collage of clichés. We can all do better here.
