of epic proportions, and if that’s not bad enough…I got a giant, bloodthirsty,
killer anthropo-whatsit rabbit man with a big ol’ carrot-shaped axe to grind
after me. Good thing I got my hyena spiritual advisors, Bud and Lou, to guide me
on this fiendish foray into a frenzy of ferocious furballs. Plus: the introduction of
my very own cosmic workout gear that is in no way an infringement on the Flash’s
intellectual property.

real doozy for ya! It’s got swords, armor, fair maidens, and more side quests than

Harley Quinn…and that OTHER Harley Quinn, well, they got a problem. Somehow, someway,
one of these Harley Quinns rode off in baby Kal-El’s lil’ rocket ship before he could leave
Krypton way back whenever that was. She also, just MAYBE, distracted Barry Allen before
that lightning bolt could hit, and don’t get me started about all the other heroes. So now the
whoooole DC Universe is all screwed up and these two HQs gotta figure out a way to put baby
Supes back in the rocket before Krypton goes boom, Barry back in front of that lightning bolt,
and stop that other Harley before…well, you get the picture. It’s going to be bananas.
