This was more engaging than the last issue (which I also enjoyed for the most part) and I liked the conclusion here. Very fun.

 Yessss! This is how you end a short series! I really enjoyed this new take on Harley Quinn. It was fascinating to read comics that focused heavily on the beauty that is her mind/intellect. After reading the first issue, I wasn’t necessarily sure how it was going to end but they actually wrapped up nicely. I can’t say too much because I don’t want to spoil it but I will say that Harley refused to allow anyone to play her like a fool or use her like a tool. She took the situation into her own hands and played these fools like a fiddle. In other words, she continued to be the bad ass I’ve always known her to be and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The artwork annoyed me just a little in this one. I enjoyed it more in the first issue because it was new, but the faded edges of the panel became more of a distraction when I was reading this time around. Honestly, if you’re going to pick up anything related to future state I would definitely recommend checking out Harley Quinn’s stuff.
