If you've enjoyed the Injustice series so far then you'll want to pick up this title. Great add to any growing comic collection.

The current Injustice run really is now just a glorified tie-in now.

ARC from Netgalley.
Picking up right after the end of Year Five of Injustice, Ground Zero details the story as seen through the eyes of Harley Quinn. Having taken leadership of the Joker Gang, she's been living life as a hero and helping keep things safe at a street level. With the arrival of heroes and villains from the other universe, Joker has returned and Harley seems content to fall back under his spell, at least at first.
Once the gang is back under her control, though they have been grounded by Batman, Harley meets with police to see how she can help, and heads off to the sewers to take down Killer Croc and Bane.
Overall, this series is getting a bit old. Harley's point of view makes it more palatable, but there aren't enough new elements to the tale to justify keeping the comic going. I'll probably keep reading, but I hope new life can be breathed back into the tale based off of an excellent video game.
Recommend with reservations.

Be careful to not read this if you have not read the main Injustice Series. But since you have read the Injustice series, you know the main plotline. However, this volume takes you through the series at Harley speed since you are getting Harley Quinn's spin on the story. So remember, not everything is covered, just enough to make Harley sense.

DNF. With such an extensive, one-note and plain boring narration from Harley this reads like a full summary of something else, which in a way it is - being a variant of the last game's plot. But why do we need such a summary, when the art of comics means that we can see things play out in drawing and text? This plodding, ditch-water dull recap is not what I wanted from this book. It looks like it opens out to actually presenting a scenario and not the Cliff Notes by the end, but my life is too short to get there in the proper manner.

I believe that this is supposed to be a prequel to the Injustice 2 videogame, and hey, it starts with Harley and is narrated by Harley, and that's never a bad thing.

It's Harley's point of view on what's happening in the world under the different Superman, not to mention, what's happening with Batman's plans to go against Superman.

The story between Batman and Harley is even more awesome than usual too.

I just wish that they hadn't had the Joker in there. He is by far my least favorite part of Harley Quinn, and honestly, I have no clue what the point of him being in this TPB even was.

Still, it was a pretty cool TPB, and I can't wait to read the second volume.

I was given this ARC by Netgalley on behalf of DC Entertainment.

When Super Heroes become Super Villains everyone needs to worry. I loved Injustice: Gods Among Us, and this sequel doesn't disappoint. The focus on Harley and how she deals with what's happened is great as she is one of my favorite characters in the DC multiverse.
Great for fans of the games, and definitely a great addition to the DC canon.

This particular edition didn't sit right with me as there was a bit of confusion with flashbacks and alternate realities, but I did enjoy Harley's adventures with her new little gang .

Finally! A title where I actually love Harley again! It is a really good take on the Injustice game as told by the Clown Princess of Crime.
