After a killer breakup, Harley's romantic life's kaput, but her criminal career has never been better. The former sidekick has formed a gang of her own--a team of Quinn-fanatics committed to her cause of love and larceny. But can a softhearted screwball like Harley really make it as a super-villain? Especially when she has to contend with a barrage of Bats, cops and even flippin' Superman?

Having played out every trick on the fine citizens of Gotham City, Harley Quinn--the Joker's former girlfriend--decides that another city deserves her attention. After all, why menace one city when you can menace two? Especially if the second has a Man of Steel guarding it. Harley hightails it to Metropolis, with allies Poison Ivy and Bizarro in tow. Writer Karl Kesel and artist Terry Dodson continue their now classic run on this beloved title in HARLEY QUINN: WELCOME TO METROPOLIS, collecting issues #14-25.
