Strange things happen in ‘Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica’
I can’t say I know much about the world of Riverdale. But I know a lot about Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn. They are very popular characters in DC comics. So when I heard of Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica I was hoping I would get to check it out. I got a digital copy of this comic and here is what I thought about it.
You can read the plot for Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica here:
Hiram Lodge wants to invest in the future by building a university with free tuition for Riverdale’s residents. His site is a protected swamp on the outskirts of town, and once news of the plan reaches Gotham City, a certain eco-warrior is determined to prevent the dream from becoming reality.
However, once Poison Ivy and her bestie Harley Quinn arrive, they get mixed up in the sort of hijinks that can only happen in Riverdale. At a superhero-themed costume party, the night’s entertainment–Zatanna– manages to place the personas of the Gotham City Sirens into the bodies of the town’s notorious frenemies: Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge. While Ivy (in Ronnie’s body) seeks to derail Lodge’s agenda from within, more than a few nefarious forces–from Jason and Cheryl Blossom to the Clown Prince of Crime himself–have their own foul plans.
Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica was a lot of fun to read. It was nice to see Harley and Ivy in a new town and watch them interact with people in Riverdale. Once something peculiar happens to them things get really wacky fast. Betty and Veronica also have their own things to deal with since this incident changes them too. This story took a lot of odd turns along the way, but that is to be expected with these characters. I would highly recommend this graphic novel, it was one of the best I have read in a while.
Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica comes out tomorrow. You can order this graphic novel on Amazon and at Barnes and Noble.
