#29 Harleen by Stjepan Šejić

This three-issue graphic novel is an interesting take on the birth of Harley Quinn. It also covers the emerging Two Face and how both Dr Quinzell and Harvey Dent went from law abiding citizens to criminals in Gotham. The art is great and the story gives Dr. Harleen Quinzel a detailed background and small fractures in her personality that the Joker was about to manipulate and bring about her downfall.

#30 We Should Improve Society Somewhat: A Collection of Comics by Matt Bors by Matt Bors

Maybe this wasn’t the best time to read a book of political cartoons. The cover art is based off a cartoon that has taken off as a meme. The collection is well put together with thoughts about the art underneath some bout not all the panels. But reading it in more small doses was just a steady stream of too much negativity. This is better to be read in small chunks.
