Goodreads Synopsis: 

“EAT TO THIS BEAT” part one! There’s been a string of brutal robberies and slayings up and down the East Coast, and the assailants are…knights on horseback?! Harley’s got a lead on the men behind the iron masks, but to find them she’s going to have to go undercover in the strangest place of all…New York’s punk scene!

Review: 
What a strange transition...last issue Harley is peeved about the people ripping off the elderly people and takes a trip to put an end to one of the many call centers that is helping the program...in this issue we have Harley taking on a new issue - knights on horseback robbing banks and mail trucks. 

While I enjoyed this issue, it was a very weird way to move from that story into this one. I guess that they may collide at some point. 

Harley is her normal outrages self when these baddies take over her mail truck and harm her 'favorite' mailman - she is out for revenge but has to get close so her solution - put together a punk band. It is very Harley all over, outragous and ridiculous/ over the top. I enjoyed this as part 1 and will obviously keep reading...
