This is making me miss Harley's classic look...

Stephanie Phillips on Reuniting Harley and Ivy in BATMAN: URBAN LEGENDS

[Hypo]

Issue #1 is out next week

[Zaresh]

The whole preview is out.
I'm digging it down till the Earth's core itself.

It reads right and good.it also looks great. And I wasn't expecting for the art to be something I would enjoy.
I speak as a fan, but, but, but I think I'm going to like it a lot.

Do you feel that Harley’s current redemption arc is in any way driven by her feelings for Ivy? What about her return to Gotham?

I definitely think that’s part of Harley’s inspiration for redemption and we will touch on this a little bit in the first issue of the ongoing. But I also think Harley has this drive to find her purpose in a Gotham that has changed a lot in her absence. While she wants Ivy to be part of that, there are still a lot of things that Harley has to settle on her own.

--

if this book can be the actual Harley redemption road I want, and not just random appearances everywhere driven by marketing to show wacky fun time, then I want it. She acknowledge that Harley's a work in progress, which means she's done some good, but doesn't mean she can't slip or that her past is ignored. This sounds like what I want.

A part of me feels like it's more marketing than anything else, but maybe this will be the proper redemption arc people have been critical of modern Harley over not having.

I'm not really sure I buy that Ivy would drive Harley to be a better person, though, at least insofar as being more of a hero.

Batwoman Luke Fox actor writes his character for DC comic book story in June

• Luke Fox story by Camrus Johnson and Marcus To

• Continuation of the Grifter story
• Continuation of the Red Hood story

"As old wounds threaten to Sabotage Batman and Red Hood's investigation into the Cheerdrop drug turning Gotham City upside down they run afoul of Gotham's coldest criminal Mr. Freeze! And the force behind the Cheerdrops will be banking on the former dynamic duo's demise…"

Sounds...wait for it... CHILLING.

Ice pun! KAPOW!

Looking forward to this.

I only came for the zdarsky story and that's all I've read so far (and probably will)

I liked it. I really hope zdarsky starts writing more dc characters.

That's cool to see Camrus writing a Luke story. I mean, comic Luke isn't really anything like the show version, so I hope he realizes that, but still cool .

And hey, Tim !

How come Harley is in Urban Legends? Thought this was for characters that can't carry their own books? That spot could have gone to another Gotham resident.

Is Grifter now a part of Gotham?

It's basically a Bat-Universe book.

Grifter is working for the Fox family now, I believe.

I don't think they ever explicitly said that but that's probably how it will function. In terms of the HQ story it was a one issue story set prior to the upcoming HQ ongoing.
