Metropolis Mailbag


Harley Quinn #15
February 2002
As the book opens we see Harley Quinn is making herself at home in Metropolis, as after helping Poison Ivy steal fertilizer from a greenhouse, she settles into her day-job, as the romance/advice columnist for the Daily Planet. We also see her take time out to freak Jimmy Olson out, as he's convinced Harley came to Metropolis gunning for him. As time moves on we see Harley's column has become quite a hit, but as her advice to readers becomes more twisted & reflects her true personality, we see Perry White orders her to tone it down. Deciding to play it cool, Harley follows Perry's request, but we see her start to set letters aside, as Harley has decided to give personal attention to these letters. The first letter involves a woman who is trying to convince herself that her cheating husband is really Superman. Deciding that she needs to correct this misconception right away, this couple is paid a visit by Harley Quinn, where the husband proves himself to be anything but super. As the issue ends we see that Harley is soon going to have a run in with a man in blue tights, and a red cape.
