Editorial Reviews

Gr 7 Up Harley Quinn is a blond who is obsessed with men (especially the Joker) and who is not as dumb as she looks. Poison Ivy is a redhead who has an unusual connection to plants and whose tough exterior can occasionally be softened-usually by something green and leafy. When these two women team up, chaos ensues. Whether they're fighting the good guys, the bad guys, or one another, the results are fast and funny. The full-color artwork utilizes different artists and styles for each story, showing both the deeper and lighter sides of Harley and Ivy. The stories showcase the dysfunctional relationships between the women and the men they love, hate, and need. There are many hilarious episodes; the moment in "Love on the Lam" when the Joker threatens Two Face with a rubber chicken is beyond priceless. But there are also rare moments of tenderness, as when Ivy, after learning that the Joker once again moved without telling Harley where he was going, asks Harley to leave the Joker once and for all and go out on her own. She doesn't, of course, but at least Ivy cared enough to ask. This collection of stories about Gotham's sexy supervillains will be a welcome (albeit short-lived) addition to any graphic-novel collection.-Andrea Lipinski, New York Public Library
