Peter Calloway

Unable to get work in white-dominated hospitals, a Black doctor approaches an old acquaintance, Al Capone, for the money to start his own practice and finds himself leveraged into doing backroom surgery for wounded mobsters.

An awesome concept based on the real grandfather of the author is derailed by a script that careens around between time periods, gritty gangster action, and new age spiritualism. Scenes and characters are shoved in with no purpose or payoff and the ending is abrupt and show more leaves the story feeling incomplete, as if this is the first volume of a series even though it is not marked as such. show less

Finally some Harley Quinn action in this last volume. Harley decides that enough is enough and breaks into Arkham Asylum to kill the Joker...how it goes...well...you chose if you want to see the spoiler or not...;)





There was of course also some action for Ivy and Catwoman, including one issue that just concerned Selina and her sister. It felt very out of place since Harley is hell bent on killing the Joker in this volume, but let Catwoman have a whole issue just dealing with her family show more problems...at least Ivy knows where her priorities lie...

Unfortunately, this was the last volume, I would have loved to read more...

Corporate intrigue sci-fi. Serviceable, not terribly memorable.

Good first issue. Amazing artwork.
