We've seen several DC Rebirth relaunches that have retained the same writer, but Harley Quinn is the first to keep the full creative team from the previous volume. Everyone, including co-writers Amanda Conner and Jimmy Palmiotti, artist Chad Hardin, colorist Alex Sinclair and letterer Dave Sharpe, has stuck around for this relaunch. And why not, given that Harley Quinn has been a perennial best-seller for DC from the beginning? Heck, that series was carrying the torch for lighthearted superhero fare during the darkest days of the New 52. So if very little has changed in the one week between Harley Quinn Vol. 2 #30 and Harley Quinn Vol. 3 #1, maybe that's for the best.
The only real indication that anything has changed in Harley's world is that Conner and Palmiotti devote a few pages to recapping Harley's origin story and madcap lifestyle. This is the one weak point of the issue. If you're already familiar with the character, the sequence comes across as tiresome. And if you're not, it bombards you with pointless information that has no bearing on the rest of the issue. Recapping Harley's origin story is one thing, but is it really necessary to reintroduce every single supporting character from the previous volume? Why not simply reintroduce them organically and over time?
