This comic adaptation of a series of collectable statues is better than it has any right to be. There are some changes that make sense (Catwoman being recast as Italian noblewoman Contessa Selina diGatti) and some that don't (Cockney Harley Quinn? I just... I JUST can't) but it gives it a multinational flavour that makes it all a bit more interesting than just having them all come from the USA, so props to Marguerite Bennett for that.
Because of the 2010s trend of collected trades being always exactly 6 issues, it cuts off at a weird point that leaves this feeling a bit like the scene at the beginning of a movie before the credits roll, so this is another one of those that I'll add to my omnibus wishlist.
