I'm so sad that I hated it.

The humor is bad, I felt like I was watching a poor Adam Sandler movie with no plot whatsoever...

That last story on the desert island was the worst thing I've read in a LONG time. *sighs and goes back to the Animated Series*

I didn't like this. There was really no consistency in this story at all and it jumped from plot to plot to plot with not a decent transition in between. The only good one was Harley & Power Girl and that's just because we had some time for it to be flushed out. Trying to figure out where the stupid Joker story came from, plus I don't like how Harley just goes back into Puddin' mode especially since she's trying to get over him and put him behind her she is quick to jump. Let's hope the third book is better otherwise I'm stopping my DC comics after this series.

Morally gray and having a blast! The bloody Looney Tunes antics continue. Pretty sure that whole island interlude with the indigenous population wouldn't get past the sensitivity readers if it was published today...

I love this series, and I adore and applaud what this series does for Harley Quinn as a character. I absolutely LIVED for that last issue, man, so so good.

That being said, it's not a 5 star because the plot was all over the place and there was no smooth transitioning into the various storylines Harley engages in, which I've found to be a semi common thing in comics, but wasn't something I saw in the first volume so I wasn't expecting it.

I still adore this series though and can't wait to continue.

I gave this 3 stars but it is actually more a 2.5 stars book. It is funny and well drawn. On the other hand it is only these things. The story is Harley Quinn being here eccentric self and getting into strange situations.

This book collects a strange bunch of comics. In here is the team up between Harley and Powergirl, which I liked, but there is also some other stories in there. Some of these like the reunion of Harley and the Joker I didn't care that much for.

A great volume 2! I'm really excited for volume 3. The artwork is awesome, and they're treating Harley Quinn very well!

Man, reading this series AFTER reading the Rebirth series is just such a downgrade. Harley here is a much less interesting and likeable character.

No wonder I was so confused with the volume numbers of the comics on goodreads, my book store messed them up and said this was #3 while it was #2 . And the comic, that had #2 on the front is listed as #5 on here. 😒😒😒😒😒

Back at it again with another volume of Harley Quinn!
Though this one is strange in the issues they use to make up the volume. See, they're two chapters in it where one is about Harley in comic con and the other is about this weird stranded island parody with the Joker. The latter I refuse to believe is not a one-shot, for how out of place it feels in the events of the story.
Either way, I enjoyed both, but the main story here is about Power Girl and Harley Quinn.
It's loads of fun seeing Harley trying to convince Power Girl, who temporarily loses her memory, about all these lies, yet they hang out like best friends would. Going shopping, eating at the mall, travelling through outer space through a strange hole and fighting space Hilter...Maybe that last part isn't what best friends would normally do, but you get the idea.
Overall, another fun comic by Amanda Conner who understands how fun Harley can be.
Oh, and there's a backstory one shot that I think it's the best version of her origin story. Because this one has Harley already having a few screws loose which makes the whole manipulation thing a bit more believable since it seems like she's always had a thing for crazy, murderous guys.
Until next time, see you Harleen!
