I so love Harley.

And I so hate this art.

In that last panel, am I the only one thinking Jokers been watching too many of the Saw movies?

For some reason I see the "But I am a relatively small vindictive soul" line utterly hilarious. Maybe it's because I imagine Joker saying it deadpan as opposed to his normal manhically "happy" tone of voice.

For the most part -- save for some art issues -- loved it.

Hated Morrison's Joker, Glad to see a well-written Joker back.

I have to admit that I am really annoyed seeing Joker in this story. He is the big bad of the Bat-verse and we have a new Batman. So instead of featuring the character in that story, instead of having him step out of the shadows to deal with a new man under the cowl and how his obsession deals with it, we instead have him here. Jealous about Harley.

I'm with another commentor who said that whatever one feels about R.I.P. and Joker's portrayl in it, they should at least follow-up on that before starting to have the character appear in a lesser title in a way that is in no way reflective of his last major appearance.

Sorry, robot joker?

The Joker spares no expense, Harley's right to feel flattened. Oops, I meant flattered.

There's also a panel where Harley's doing mid-air splits, it's really over the top.

Aw crap, she was making progress too.

The fact that Harley says he hasn't used the giant balloons and henchmen in years is, imo, Dini's way of saying " Yeah, this is nothing like the Joker we've been seeing as of lately, he's gone classic here."

And quite honestly, knowing Joker's psycho ways, I wouldn't be surprised that he lapsed into this zany Dini-version when dealing with jealousy over Harley Quinn.

So yeah, no problem with this, they could have kept the bullet mark on his forehead but seriously, the Joker is the Joker in any incarnation, just kinda go with the flow.


Hush and Harley are an odd pair though.
