The Story
The time has finally come for Harley Quinn and Althea Kang’s first date! With the many flirtations between the two, surely this date will be as hot and heavy as both can hope for. Well, the night goes very unexpectedly, which is oddly expected for Harley.
Althea picks Harley up for their date, showing she’s willing to make the first romantic gesture. Then she takes Harley to a very fancy and expensive restaurant, which doesn’t seem like something Harley would be into, which is wasn’t. But who is Harley to knock a date for going to the wrong place? As the night progresses, the craziness continues and grows, and somehow ends up with a hospital visit. To say this date did not go according to plan would be an understatement.
The best way to describe this comic was “extremely fun”. Elliott Kalan get the energy high throughout the comic and left surprises at every turn. Seeing Harley be in complete control of the date was fantastic to see, while Althea thought she was the one leading the date. By the end of the comic, you could see that this date turned out to be very authentic to Harley, but certainly shook Althea up in ways she didn’t think were possible.
The Art
Carlos Olivares, Marissa Louise and Lucas Gattoni used their fantastic artistic talents to make this comic such a good time. Olivares was able to illustrate the many emotions of the characters through their facial expressions and their body language perfectly, which added to the heightened emotions brilliantly. Marissa Louise brought so much vibrancy to the comic, leaving every page a joy to read. Lucas Gattoni created a perfect flow of dialogue and managed to nail the tones of the characters in their words. All in all, the artists made this comic a gorgeous work of art that had as much excitement in the pages as Harley did for her date.
