‘Old Lady Harley #2’ (review) at Forces Of Geek!
Frank Tieri’s wild ride into a Mad Max future and more than a hat tip to a comic property across the street with Old Lady Harley continues with issue #2 (of 5). The cover from longtime Harley artist Amanda Connor reveals what lies within “Anarchy in Arkham”.
‘Wonder Woman #58’ (review) at Forces of Geek
G. Willow Wilson returns to DC Comics with her unique take on the classic character of Wonder Woman. I’m sure DC is banking on her bringing some of her Ms. Marvel fanbase to this run.

‘Harley Quinn #45’ (review) at Forces of Geek
This is the DC equivalent of Deadpool 2 in comic form. I haven’t been checking in on creator Sam Humphries for a while now, though I was a fan of watching his rise to stardom at Marvel. His fun style translates well into the adventures of Harleen Quinzel.
