Meh.

"Really wanted to like this cause I love Harley Quinn as a character, but this volume was just really forgettable and didn't dive into the character like I wanted it to."

Chenise (2/5)

Decent

"It's a fun read. One of the better Harley Quinn comics I've read."

Leanne (3/5)

I love Harley!

"Since I've been reading the Harley Quinn Rebirth series, I decided to venture into the previous Harley series. This first volume introduced many of the people and things that are in the latest Harley series. For example, we get to see the creation of the ""scatapult,"" and how Harley became the landlord of the building. I loved the first issue in the collection! Harley decides that she wants to have her own comic book (how original!). The creators, Amanda and Jimmy, give her some ideas of how different artists would draw her. Almost every page is drawn by a different DC artist, with Harley in many different situations. It was so cool to see Harley interact with the writers and artists of the graphic novels. I also liked it when Harley got a job at a nursing home as a psychologist. I could relate to this storyline because my grandmother is in a nursing home with Alzheimer's disease. There was a twist at the end of that storyline that made me laugh, and I could totally believe it from my experiences. I have the next volume of Harley Quinn lined up to read soon! I can't wait to read more of her adventures."

A Wonderful Harley Quinn Solo Series!

"She starts with a bang in her New 52 debut! I really like her in this than in Suicide Squad, it's all the crazy and cute you'd expect as she makes it on her own away from Gotham and everyone in it."

Bean (5/5)

Finally! A Harley Quinn done right!

"The New 52 has not steered me wrong so far, and while it has a few issues, I think this is a good Harley Quinn run. It's chaotic, it's fun and for once, Harley Quinn is not a bimbo. She's a smart, and a little psychotic, gal. Throw in some Coney Island craziness and Poison Ivy, and it was an entertaining read."

Ashley (4/5)

Absolutley love!!!

"I've always loved Harley and am so happy she finally has her own book!! amazing artwork"

Sarahbelle (5/5)

Lighthearted and Fun

"A fresh take on a classic character. It's humorous and not overly serious, but I really like it."

Rachel (5/5)

Fun read

"Harley has always been a fun character, and this series is great!"

Jennifer (4/5)

good story and a lot of comics for the price

"Included a lot of issues of the Harley Quinn series and is a fun and goofy ride. The art is well done and Harley is a cute protagonist. Much better that her treatment is the Suicide Squad series."

Jamie (5/5)

It's hard to stay interested.

"Harley Quinn is a great character as a torn villain, but given her own spotlight, the stories are just goofy."
