HARLEY QUINN is not the story of an honorable woman and her quest for justice. Instead, it's a love story gone horribly, horribly, horribly wrong, especially in the first extra-length issue, as the Joker's girlfriend must do without Mister J's "calming" influence! And considering just how many sandwiches short of a picnic Harley is, you know this book's going to be wild! Harley is driven to astounding lengths to free her loony lover. And that's just in the first seven pages! What follows is too strange for words, though it does involve one itsy-bitsy cameo by Batman. Just one! Once you see life through the eyes of Harley Quinn, you'll find she makes a lot more sense. Would you believe a little more sense?

Fresh off the blowout from issue one, Harley finds herself alone, adrift and without direction. Even a bizarre cameo by Poison Ivy (among others) can't get our darling little nut-job out of her funk—but maybe a new job will? Enter Two-Face, and a wild kidnapping scheme which only gets stranger as the job unravels. And if that weren't enough, a familiar face is now hunting for Harley, and the Penguin drops by for a visit.

Get ready for pajama-party-rama-madness, guest-starring Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Hope, Mercy, the Body Doubles and more! After bombing out with Two-Face, Harley decides to gather the bad girls of the DC Universe for a sleepover. How else can she show off her wild new digs?

Introducing...the Quinntettes? They're the baddest, meanest, most dysfunctional henchmen Harley could find, and they're ready for action. But the first mission is not what anyone's expecting, and one of the Quinntettes has something strange going on...in his head. It's crime, danger, and star-crossed love.

Guest-starring Nightwing as a...carjacker? What could lead him to such a dastardly deed? Why, Harley Quinn, of course! How will our hero, er, villain escape this one? Meanwhile, Oracle is determined to stop Harley once and for all, and she’s not the only one. Nix and Buster are scheming against her, Matches Malone is about to strike, and let’s not even talk about the Stooges.

Harley's first year ends with a bang in this special extra-sized issue. It's games-within-games as Bo and Surley try to capture Harley; Bo and Carrie try to hook up—at last; Nix unleashes his plan against Harley; Buster's true colors are shown; Jack Happi meets his destiny—and it hurts; allegiances shift; and Batman strikes.
