The ongoing Harley Quinn comic's status in current Batman continuity is nebulous at best. That's partly why the series' latest story arc is so intriguing. Harley is headed to Arkham Asylum to bust her boyfriend Mason Macabre. That essentially forces the book to acknowledge the rest of the Batman family and Harley's relationships with her costumed peers. Even if Batman or Joker don't factor into this story, there's a lot of potential to explore. Potential that this issue barely shows an interest in tapping into.
The problem is that issue #24 quickly gets sidetracked by a completely different conflict - Harley's ongoing feud with the mayor of New York. This transitions into an extended, very violent romp that winds up consuming the vast majority of these pages. The conflict is reasonably entertaining. If nothing else, it allows a wide variety of cast members to wreak havoc on their hapless enemies. Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti manage to build up a fun bond between the flamboyant Harvey Quinn and the cybernetic killer/aged Bond girl Zena Bendemova.
