    Harley Quinn's Secret Origin

    Adam Glass has blown me away with how great his Suicide Squad has been. It's been deadly, fun, and entertaining for the past five issues. Does issue #5 stop the streak of violence and fun? 
     
    THE GOOD: 
    I really like the art in this issue. The lines are well defined and the character expression is priceless. The way Clayton Henry draws the violence is great and entertaining. The story is actually my favorite part of this issue. I really liked seeing Harley Quinn's descending to the Joker. I really liked how smart and strong Adam Glass made her. I really liked how the characters or Lime and Light are in the series after appearing in Green Arrow. This book is connecting with tons of series, Detective, Green Arrow, and Stormwatch it feel like a dark and connected series in the DCU. 
     
    THE BAD: 
    There is a lot of violence in this comic, which is fine with me but some people aren't going to want to read this. I also wish that there would be more likable characters because I only really like a few of the characters and the rest could die for all I car. (I'm sure some of them will.)  
     
    THE VERDICT: 4.5/5 (Amazing) 
    I really like this version of the team and I really hope that some of the characters live a bit longer. I'm really excited to see more of Harley Quinn and the Joker and see if the Joker is really alive or dead. If you like reading a good comic with a lot of violence and suspense, you going to love this series and I suggest that you get it.

      This is definitely a really nice cover. The background isn't just a solid color, it's a tumultuous blend of shades that weave a darker cloud of tension. Harley's the enemy, so she's shown as a larger figure in the background, a hold over our protagonists, dropping them into the uncertain nothingness below. And I especially love that her hand is right on the bullseye in the logo.There's a bit of an awkward jump between the last issue and this one, although its MOSTLY smoothed over by a few pacing...

Find out the origins of her relationship with Joker! The Good   Clayton Henry takes up art duties this month and although I am a fan of what was done in previous issues, I'm happy enough with the change. In particular, all the facial expressions and action scenes are done well, especially the single page with all the "henchmen". I think that page will bring a smile to reader's faces!  We also delve into what eventuall...
