When a mysterious booth is bequeathed to Harley and claims to be a time-travelling machine, she has no choice but to try it out. However, she soon learns that her hops through time and space have destroyed the origin stories of DC's top heroes like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and more. What's worse, with all the superheroes gone, the villain Starro can have a field day with Earth's inhabitants, and no one can prevent it ...

This was a fun romp through various DC properties, with the usual humor of a Harley Quinn comic. I definitely found myself guffawing aloud at some of the one-liners. The illustrations are full of action overall and mimic a few different art styles depending on the appropriate context. This is definitely the perfect antidote for a bad day when you need to relax with a quick and compelling read at the end of it. Harley fans are sure to enjoy more of her (mis)adventures and chaotic energy.… (altro)

If you've played the Mafia Trilogy, especially Mafia II and Mafia II, then you're all caught up on the "Rise and Fall Of Sal Marcano". There really was no reason to even create this. We all know playing the game what Sal's rise and fall was. Getting his come uppants in hell is no consolation. The story of what happens to ALL of the Marcano brothers is in the game, and the invention of an old timey gangster Sal murked to become boss does little to propel this as interesting. This book was a waste when there are more pressing issues such as the confirmation of Joe being Lincoln's father and how the hell did he wind up being muscle for Leo. There's also the pesky detail that the game lets you pick the ending, and in one of those endings Sal kills himself contradictory to this story.

Skip this. Just watch the cut-scenes of the game on Youtube.… (altro)

Zombies, crusaders, awesome artwork, and loads of gore - what more could you want? The story is fairly simple and the characters lean towards the threadbare, but it didn't ever bother me while I was reading. In fact, this was a real "page-turner" for most of the ride. This is thanks in large part to the artwork, which is gloriously violent and detailed (with some truly delightful full-page spreads). Interesting ideas, tense moments, great art, and a cliffhanger ending. I'd definitely recommend it, and I can't wait to see where the story goes next!… (altro)
