Goodreads Synopsis: 
“AFTERMATH” part two! We said the election would change Harley’s life forever, and we weren’t kidding! For one of the people closest to her...it’s ended their life! And in the “Secret Origins” backup story, you’ll learn how the incredible Eggy came to be the man...err, egg...he is today!
 Review: 
These synopses are getting confusing again... not sure what these "Secret Origins" are but they aren't in these comics ... probably another off-shoot installment series. Anyway apart from that, this issue was a glimpse into Harley's normal life with her parents and her brothers. Her and Ivy make a stop over there and there isn't a lot of action. We do get a glimpse of her old hyena pals though and it was an adorable interaction.It was a weird ending to all the action and craziness of the past few, so it might not be for all  HQ readers.

Goodreads Synopsis: 
“MAN-BATTER UP” part one! Harley’s in a dark, dark place after the hard right turn her life took...so when the citizens of Coney Island say it was a mysterious “bat” that kidnapped one of her friends, she is not going to take it lying down!
Review: 
WTH Frank! Again we are back to a Frank Tieri rendition of Harley. That is fine but it always a weird change over. The story from last issue abruptly ends and this one picks up back in the city. The cover is a HUGE spoiler (even though I really enjoy it). In this installment, Tony is taken and Harley is still trying to have alone time but is brought back into the swing of things to search for him. She not only finds him but also finds herself captured and now a bat-woman too. ..and we wait until next issue to find out more...
