Harley Quinn Trilogy conclusion








My review

4.5

This is a fantastic trilogy with one of my favorite DC characters. She is filled with energy and justice and it's time to say enough to the cruelty and whims of the patriarchal wishes from abusive male teens to older. She gets inspired by the Joker and with her girlfriend she'll fight for justice, delivering revenge to each guilty one. Easy to read, the chapters show two timelines: the mystery present, something bad happened to her friend, and the past, how they got into trouble.


In the second volume she is in college and an intern in Arkham Asylum, trying really hard to play nice and keep her scholarship but she realizes girls are in danger once more and not just them. there is something more still related to the first case that continues to threaten them. I love the appearances of other famous characters and how the author makes it very exciting to read, we keep turning the pages for more. one very feminist series, of girls protecting each other and getting justice.


Don't miss a great conclusion to this series with the third volume releasing April 23rd.

Synopsis:

In this new launch of a trilogy within the DC Icons universe, experience the origin story of a Super Villain. This is the feminist Harley Quinn backstory fans have been waiting for.

When Harleen Quinzel scores an internship in a psych lab at Gotham University, she’s more than ecstatic; she’s desperate to make a Big Scientific Discovery that will land her a full-ride college scholarship and get her away from her abusive father. But when Harleen witnesses the way women are treated across STEM departments–and experiences harassment herself–she decides that revenge and justice are more important than her own dreams.

Harleen finds her place in an intoxicating vigilante girl gang called the Reckoning, who creates chaos to inspire change. And when Harleen falls for another girl in the gang, it finally seems like she’s found her true passions. But what starts off as pranks and mischief quickly turns deadly as one of the gang members is found murdered–and a terrifying conspiracy is uncovered that puts the life Harleen has worked so hard for at stake. Will she choose her future–or will she choose revenge?

In this refreshingly feminist spin on the story of our favorite villainess, Harley Quinn: Reckoning traces Harleen’s journey from precocious, revenge-obsessed teenage girl to a hardcore justice-seeker on her way to becoming the most captivating Super Villain of all time. Vibrating with youthful energy and rage, this is one story that you won’t be able to put down.
