Is the Harley Quinn comic the single worst comic being published today?
>>
>>85962042
It's not written by Dennis Hopeless, so no. That's physically impossible.
>>
Rebirth #2 wasn't too bad
>>
>>85962042
>What is Squirrel Girl
>What is Mockingbird
>What is Shithumans

>>85962042
Maybe by DC, but thre is whole world of shittier comics.
>>
>>85962042
Not even close.

>the single worst comic being published today?
Whatever it is I'm sure it's a Zenescope or Dynamite
>>
>>85962639

Hey. Hey. Zenescope is trying, okay? They're trying.
>>
>>85962042
It reads like Daniel Way's Deadpool.
>>
At a point around a couple of years ago, I'd say Harley Quinn was one of the best book DC was churning out.

Not even close.

But I don't like the New 52 in general. Hope in Rebirth.
>>
>>85962042
Not even close these >>85962160 are all still a thing. Plus Thor and Civil War 2. Hatley Quinn is just fem Deadpool for DC. They killed the original character but it's still somewhat fun to read.
>>
>>85962042

Her Rebirth book has been alright so far.

Or Boom

You shut your fat worthless whore mouth about Boom.
>>
>>85963720
How is she not the original character? Aside from now being independent of the Joker, what aspects of her have been thrown away or changed?

If anything this is closer to the cartoony and light-hearted personality she originally had, and the slapstick and innuendo that were what made her funny in BTAS are kept intact.

I'm convinced at this point the people who so vehemently hate this comic are mad that it's not edgy and dark and serious or something. What version of Harley are you saying she's not like?
>>
>>85964827
Well, Lumberjanes is published by Boom, so there's an argument at least.
>>
>>85962042
>yfw Harley gets explosive powers and calls herself Harley Queen

>>85964931
See >>85963312

Harley innuendos and slapstick is augmented by 200%, which doesn't benefits the character

It's shit.

It's not fantastic, but everyone loses their shit over that one page, when the rest of the comic is fairly decent.

>>85962042
Harley Quinn's worst crime is being unfunny.

There's several other comics that not only aren't funny, but also look like dogshit.

I'm lost.

Mockingbird had one bad issue, it's not normally bad.

Hellcat though should take its place on this list.
>>
>>85962042
What? No, are you stupid? It's by far one of the BEST comics published!
>>
>>85962042
Fuck no.

Its not good, but its not bad.

There's plenty of outright BAD comics.

No, Marvel intern, it's bad but it isn't the single worst comic.

Harley in the 52 is mostly a different character.

Pre-52 Harley was an Olympic tier gymnast from a poor upbringing who slept her way through college and bet proving her dad wrong and showing the world she can be someone on psychologically curing or at least studying the Joker. He seduced her, she became an insane woman who is wholly in love with him and hallucinates reality like she's in a cartoon (although it was once suggested she just likes the fact she feels no guilt or shame and can do anything when she's around him). Regardless of how many times he tries to kill her, she comes back.

In the 52, Harley loved her family and was just an ordinary psychologist that ended up working at Arkham. Joker had many Harleys before her, and after initially breaking out he made her a new one but this time gave her the same acid dip that created him. They weren't together long before she was recruited into the Suicide Squad where she picked up a lot of skills that made her a sub-Batman tier strength character. After Joker cut off his face he chained her up with the bones of all the other Harleys and let their hyenas, that she thought of as their children, loose to kill her. After being forced to kill them she beat the shit out of him and swore off him forever. Somehow this broke her mind even further, this time making her completely aware of the fact that she's in a comic and gave her almost constant hallucinations of all kinds. She may or may not have set off explosives killing a very large number of people, mostly children, as this could have been just another hallucination. She wound up in control of an apartment full of former circus freaks and oddities as well as head of a roller derby team, found out Batman's secret identity and was given permission to operate as an anti-hero (outside of Gotham only) by him, and went on adventures with various Justice League members. Also wound up back in Suicide Squad periodically, where she hated Joker's Daughter.

This.

There was an issue where she was naked with Ivy and flirting with other women, and /co/ was bitching about SJW pandering.

I think all the gay /pol/lacks were driven here.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that pre-52 Harley serious contemplated killing her father and the only thing keeping her from it is her love for her siblings.

52 Harley was seduced by the Joker when he broke out to bring her the severed head of the man who killed her dad while driving drunk.

Pre-52 Harley is Jewish, 52 Harley is non-religious.

Pre-52 Harley wants to be a womanchild, and being around the Joker lets her be that.
52 Harley is a womanchild. She thought Joker was a manchild, and he was more a teenchild.

So are we in agreement that company wars is stupid?

oh, you mean the DCAU book?

You should probably start reading some comic books for once, because she had an origin in the Pre-N52 continuity.

people who don't like Palmiotti Harley are really desperate for Harley sleeping her way through college to be true to #btfo her fans. You will never change their minds with facts- they don't want the truth because it's an ideological issue. You might as well tell a Republican that global warming exists or a feminist that there's no wage gap.

The same thing happened with Suicide Squad- Joker abused Harley more than he did in most continuities, but because they'd hyped themselves up for people to get shocked by Joker beating the shit out of Harley for over a year, people got terminally triggered and declared that it was worse than Twilight.

Harley's got a real bad case of popularity backlash.

If that's the worst you got this year, consider yourself lucky, fag.
At least you won't have to deal with worse outputs for the next coming months.
And the next coming months.

The Inhumans stories are fine. X-Men takeover resentment doesn't change the quality of the actual writing or art. You're being an over-reactive child.

Squirrel Girl is often legitimately funny. You're not a critical thinker if you automatically dislike something just because Tumblr likes it. That's reactive, you pathetic faggots.

Mockingbird has two very decent issues, one issue that was politically dumb and badly written, and I haven't picked it up since then. The next two or three issues would be the deciders, but I'm pretty sure you're just hating it because someone posted a panel from issue 3.

>>85963720

Thor is legitimately rubish. I've read I think 5 issues, and don't think I got to any of SJW panels that upset /pol/core, but even so I can't read it. When I look at a speech bubble all I hear in my head is "blah blah blah blah". I can't quite pinpoint what it is. Mabye it's the Little Miss Perfect Thor who never feels like she belongs in any of the stories, and all the characters just acting like idiots or going against the mythology in ways that makes the mythology less interesting (Thor just knocking Odin around spacem for instance).

And, yeah, Civil War is pretty bad too, having read the first three issues, but I think there was a salvageable story there if you cut out a couple of the dumb scenes and dialogue.
>>
>>85968169
Why are you supporting actual garbage even though its, by your own admission, only "decent." You are the reason Marvel is unrelenting garbage.

You deserve to fucking die.
>>
>>85962042
Nah, i blame the writers not so much the idea of her having a book. Because her past books were okay.
But yhis team have been trying so hard to undo anything harley and make her a presence that alot of other characters are why more worthy of.
>>
>>85967765
yup
>>
>>85968233

Who said I'm supporting anything, dude? I read a lot of comics but only buy something if it is excellent. Pointing out something that is "decent" when everyone else say's it is terrible (or vice versa) is for the sake of RATIONAL THINKING, and not suffering tantrums and faboyism (because it's pretty obvious when that's what people are doing), just taking the comic for what it is. Be a little level headed, for fuck's sake, show a little complexity, because all I see here is "THIS FFFFFUCKING SUCKS" or "GOAT, BASED X HAS DONE IT AGAIN".
>>
>>85968463

If the pre-order culture they're talking about in the other threads and at Outhouse is accurate, that might be the problem. People don't think in degrees of quality, they just think in terms of who you're supporting. Honestly I don't give a shit who I give money to (I barely give any money to anyone), as if any of us really influence the creative directions of these massive companies just by buying something or not buying it. I just care about how good the comic is when I'm reading it. All the fan-warfare chest-beaters can fuck off.

My problem with Palmiotti and Conner Harley it's that it doesn't have depth and it doesn't have consequences, also it doesn't treat Harley as a villain.

See Harley first ongoing for example, that book doesn't shy away from showing Harley as a villain but at the same type as a character that has feelings. Take this page for example, you can see that although Harley is this wacky character she is also a character with feelings. Palmiotti and Conner Harley NEVER does that, their Harley is 1 dimensional as fuck, and that whats wrong

These are the same people who will keep insisting that Harley sees herself as a role model and slept her way through college.

Nothing you can say or do will change their minds, because they want to hate Harley no matter what.
