Story: Do you remember that door that Red Tool was supposed
to seal after Harley and he had their little adventure down in the tunnels
under the building? Well Giant bugs have brought the cocoon out into the light of
day and what comes out isn’t pleasant. That’s where issues 14-16, Nether Regions,
starts us off at. With the help of another underworld dweller Atlee and Power
Girl they manage to subdue Zorcrom, well not as much as the rabid squirrel.
Along with the megalomaniac who has decided that Power Girl will be his queen
we also learn that the mayor’s aid has hired a bunch of cannibals to eat the homeless
population (hence the name Red Meat), Harley Sin is out of Arkham and out for
revenge, and in the distant possible future a young woman works her way to the
top of the battle royal so she can go back in time to kill Harley Quinn. After
the defeat of Zorcrom Harley is approached by the Chief of Police to look into
the disappearing homeless problem only to be kidnapped herself, it’s a good
thing she can talk to the dead and that she is completely insane. Red Tool revealed!
WHAT!?!?
Review: Just keeps getting better, I loved the progression
of the stories how they all were all set up and then fell one by one like
dominos well except for Harley Sin’s her part isn’t done yet. These four story
arcs fit well in with each other it’s an easy transition from one to the next.
Harley has some real sane moments only to be followed up by batshit crazy. I love Red Tools part of the story. I think it's funny how Harley's hair changes length with each artist. Overall, this was a great one, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
