lunaseassecondaccount's review against another edition

I had no idea this was volume two, but that makes a lot more sense now. Anyway, my love for Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn grows with this volume, although I do feel it's not quite up to par with [b:Arkham Asylum: Madness|6929516|Arkham Asylum Madness|Sam Kieth|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1276921874s/6929516.jpg|7160100]. But it's great to finally see the ladies of Gotham City get some real screen time for once, so to speak.
Anyway, I'm going to need to hunt down the first volume of this set, I think. Need to support these lovely female villians!

cons:
+ if you're not into constant cheesecake the art here can get aggravating. like wow dini be a little more clear about who you're drawing this for, i think some of us don't quite get it yet
+ way less shenanigans than you would think! i don't read much dc, i was just browsing the comics at my library and i thought supervillain roommates sounded like an excellent sitcom premise. alas no. this story is infected with the same insistence on taking itself seriously as most of dc verse is u_u
pros:
+ well aside from the t & a the art's really not bad! the paneling is nicely done too, it didn't always stick to the same thing but i never found it difficult to follow the story
+ pretty easy to follow considering i haven't read the first volume
+ uhh idk the story's alright? like i'm not going to rave over it but it's pretty solid. i wouldn't turn down the next volume if i had it on hand
+ poison ivy's hella pretty when she's not playing human. like for real where did she even get the human!ivy hairstyle, it's terrible.
welp i think i may be sliding away from pros now so time to wrap it up. overall verdict on this volume: okay! not amazing, not terrible, would pick up the next one if i saw it at the library. 2.5 stars

If it weren’t for the hyper sexual drawings this would be perfect

The ladies are awesome as always. It was neat to see the Riddler as well. Lots of fun.

A decent read, I don't think I liked it as much as volume 1. The art is beautiful.
