How does this comic manage to be so stupid yet so good at the same time?

[mortimerwclankitybritches]

Alcohol maybe? or just dumb luck. Or both.

Either way its better than supes beating a pregnant Lois into the stratosphere or punching through the joker's sternum

I don't want to like it.....BUT COME ON!!! Dat scene broke me a little inside.

[shadowpsykie]

Right?!?! I.m like....what?

[lissa_quon]

...I like this scene.

I now feel conflicted cause I like this scene. It works really well.

[aravis]

"Mister J"...? It's "Mistah"!

I just bought this entire series digitally because of this issue.

The game genuinely looks good, and even if the breakdown of Superman was a bit... compressed... this issue was outstanding.

My favorite part was when she made fun of the name of his 'Arrow Cave'.

[shadowpsykie]

Heehee

Why don't you cal it the Quiver?
...that...actually makes more sense...

[darkknightjrk]

Well, there's a difference between wanting to kill Joker and Harley for their crimes and becoming dictator of the world, so I wouldn't say the breakdown is finished quite yet--this is just the spark that creates the fire.

I don't want to like any scene in this comic, but dammit this was good.

No one should ever have to justify a fake mustache.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Besides, without a fake mustache, what will you twirl while you cackle maniacally? Your pigtails? Bah!

[chrisdv]

...That's actually kinda hot.

[shadowpsykie]

This comic was funny, sweet and tragic on so many levels... And I just... Can it just be about the hijinks of harley and ollie?

[walkingthroughforest]

This feels like the old DCU. And that's probably the biggest compliment I can give it. The characters have all been written great, and the world feels like a world of heros.

The content has been a little tough to swallow, but it's been written very well from issue 1.

Arrow Cave.... "Why don't you just call it the quiver?" hehehehe

I dunno, this really doesn't work for me. Sure it's pretty cute, and it would work well enough with the pre-reboot mainstream versions of the characters, but I find to hard to empathize with Harley when she's just been an accomplice to the murder of a pregnant Lois Lane, plus y'know, the nuking of a major metropolitan city. Now maybe she wasn't aware of Joker's plans or he forced her into it or something, it's not clear from these scans, but it's hard to buy Harley as a victim when she's now a mass murderer.
Not to mention, the idea that Ollie would humor her like this doesn't work for me. Harley was just party to the murder of Lois Lane, the love of Superman's life, plus a whole lot of other people, and to have Ollie approaching her with anything other than complete and utter disgust really annoys me. I can accept that the JLA would try to protect Harley from Superman, because they're clearly Lawful Stupid in this story, but I can't buy Ollie sympathizing with her so quickly.

Welp, I have a feeling that this will cause more than a few ships to sail...

Also, I can't help but think that if Superman's looking for them, suddenly seeing a lead-lined fortress underground will only make him suspicious.

[superfangirl1]

I don't want to like this but can't help it. Even if Harley is a despicable person for what she was involve in. But do enjoy that ollie have a arrow cave.
