Spyder’s comic minute: Harley Quinn – Amanda Conner

If there is such a thing as a “man’s world” in publishing, I would say the genre of comics would be it. Not saying that to start an argument, so please excuse me if you feel otherwise. Amanda Conner, yes a woman, has certainly made an impression on the genre and her series “Harley Quinn” is simply amazing.

It’s about time! I have always been a fan of Harley Quinn. She is fun, quirky, cute and sinister. The series, thus far captures her personality perfectly. In this comic Harley Quinn is all the things I mentioned and perfectly packaged by Amanda Conner. Of the New 52 villains, Harley Quinn is definitely one of my favorites. Not just because she female but because she is presented in a genuine light through fantastic writing, emotion and atmosphere.

Of course the art rounds out the comic and makes the presentation complete but this go I am only going to say that Amanda Conner nails it. So much so, I will be checking out her work in Before Watchmen and Power Girl. Hats off to you Ms. Conner for making your mark – I expect to see much-much more form this talent of the comic genre.
