Harleen #1

Harleen is fantastic! It is pretty dark though, which is to be expected since Harley Quinn's story is her starting as a prominent psychiatrist and then entering into an abuse relationship with the Joker that continues to mess with her head. So, know what you're getting into when you pick this one up because while the romance is not the focus, it is still there and there are a few sex scenes.


I really liked this because it is Harley's story, her origin, and focuses on her problems and mental breakdown. They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions and honestly, that fits this story to a T and it is done so, so well. The story does not jump around and it is super easy to follow even though it feels so layered. I'm sure if I re-read this I'd find more detail in the artwork that I missed before and the artwork is so expressive and tells the story in different lens. I honestly think people will have different takes of things because of how it is drawn and written.


I'll stop here before I continue gushing, but if you like dark stories, then you should give this one a try!
