4 stars for the Batman story only. I actually really liked this issue. The Harley/Ghost-makes interaction has been the only time thus far that I’ve had even a passing interest in GM as a character during the actual Batman storyline. He worked surprisingly well with Harley and she continues to be so great. Let’s stop teasing Ivy though and just bring her in already! I can appreciate that she actually gets a panel that shows her this time around, but I’m anxiously waiting for Harley to actually go and get her instead of the contact teasing. I assume it’ll be happening in the pre-Fear State stuff and then more in that actual event. I’m sensing big things for Harley and Ivy as it’s finally time for them to get their due together. The other plot-line was fine with Batman, Simon Saint and Peacekeeper. I get DC feels the need to push the Peacekeepers with The Suicide Squad and the Peacekeeper show, but they seem to just randomly show up anywhere and everywhere at this point. It was fine for this issue honestly but I’m hoping it’ll be wrapped up after the next issue. Jorge Jimenez’s art continues to be amazing too.
The Ghost-Maker backup continues to be nothing of interest and the one in this issue might be the most pointless, boring one yet. It reads like a simple explanation dump and I don’t care about any of the characters introduced in this back-up, with Ghost-Maker being included in that sentiment. There are other characters that I’d much rather have as a back-up story like Miracle Molly, one of the other members of the Unsanity Collective or even the Gardener. The GM one isn’t working and they need to stop trying to make it work.
