Counting this as The Complete Collection since it's not on Goodreads.

This follow-up series is largely a rehashing of events from the entire Injustice: Gods Among Us arc, which I loved. The best character in Injustice, by FAR, was Harley Quinn. So the idea of having a spin-off where she narrates the whole time and we see new scenes and perspectives is clever marketing at least, and actually well-executed in my opinion.

Para los que no somos de videojuegos de tortas, esta serie nos permite cerrar las tramas abiertas en los cinco años anteriores aunque le de demasiadas vueltas a la visión particular de Harley Quin, hilo conductor de la historia.

Not a high bar to clear, but this was the best Injustice book I've read, and perhaps the only one that had some kind of handle on character consistency.

I really love how this goes into what happens to joker. And I love that Harley is telling the store. So you get her insane version on the story. It is very interesting how all of this started.


Joker killing Lois and Superman’s baby. Like wow he has done so many messed up things over the years, but you also can’t wait to see what they make him do next.

So Harley is sitting on a bench with Flowers that have faces on them. That’s weird, but one of them also have Mr. J’s face because she is talking about what they had done to Superman.

She also talks about joining up with Green Arrow and he people, but they die. And she talks about joining up with all the Batwomen and batgirl. Oh get this she also talks about having a thing for Shazam. Wow what mind blown, but he was on Superman’s side and was a “ bad guy”.

So the story goes on and she is working with Batman because where else is she going to turn to. She talks about these green pills that helps them fight Superman. Like they can take a punch from him and give one right back with out getting badly hurt. So Batman tells her to break into this place.

You are lead to believe that this is one of Superman’s places. She breaks in with some of her thugs and they take out the outside people. Then he thugs tie up the one inside. She basically talks to him and scares him into tell her that she can’t get into the safe.

She get in and then blows the place up. And you learn that it was a place that Batman got the pills from and Lex was the one making them.

Really good I enjoyed it a lot and I would love to continue with the story.

Ground Zero seems like a retelling of all that happened in the Injustice series, but the story’s being told by Harley Quinn’s perspective. Meh! I’m not a huge fan of her, or most of her comics I’ve read so far. I gave it an extra star because Harley x Shazam is the ship I never knew I needed! 😙

I think the whole's thing a rather creative way of telling the Injustice storyline, this time out of the limelight where Supes and Batsy shined.
