How exactly did we go from six days ago to this episode? Impressions: Like Gordon, there's only so much Bane in an episode that I feel like…
Harley Quinn #32 — American Politics
Both Sides™. I have a social engagement tomorrow morning, so things will be delayed. I might get to the manzai thing before it, but definitely not Lycoris…

Harley Quinn #31 — For The Beignet
Please, no man bun. Impressions: I don't know that there's much to say about this episode. It was very fillerish, in that nothing really happened, and in…
Harley Quinn #24 — Read the Room
Was this version of Batman ever not a horrible detective? Impressions: Another episode that feels largely okay, but would've worked a lot better with a few nudges here and…
Harley Quinn #36 — A Hard Wayne
You dildos. Impressions: It's good that they finally came to grips at least a little bit that Ivy was being just as overbearing and toxic in the…
Harley Quinn #35 — Meet the Parents
Boy, this season really doesn't want to use many (any) DC characters, does it? Impressions: It's weird to me that this wasn't the finale since it seems…

They die more than Uncle Ben at this point. Impressions: Now this is the kind of Batman story that I really adore, and definitely echoes some of…
Harley Quinn #44 — Days of Future Past

Eff the Macaroni. Impressions: Better than the first episode, largely because Dick/Nightwing's half was a bit more amusing and better handled than Gordon's was. Him coming back,…
