Harley's Little Black Book #3


The latest issue of Harley Quinn's bi-monthly team-up book pairs Zatanna, who gets booked in Big Tony’s cabaret show the same day a trio of ghosts leave Coney Island and take up residence in Harley's building, with Harley. The plot is a little convoluted with Harley's house guests, Zatanna, the ghosts, the demon chasing the ghosts, the buggy monster, and the more powerful creature controlling the demon. That said, what works well is the interactions between the two women.

At $5 the comic feels a bit over-priced. Artist Joseph Michael Linsner certainly enjoys drawing Zatanna who looks terrific in her classic costume (while I'm still trying to get used to this new-look Harley). Fans of both characters may want to give it a chance but there's not enough for the causal reader add this one to their pull list. For fans.

[DC, $4.99]
