How many issues do you think this title will survive?
After my sad Yule, this was a belated read that was a fine, self-contained, "Holiday Story" that highlighted each of three sirens with fairness and fun. Finally after 6 issues this was more worthy the cover price...

Just some quick page by page reactions for those who have read it and are inclined to compare....

finally the trypich poser cover is done. It was good artwise and possibly for focus sales. Thankfully the next 2 are less poser oriented.

nice pun and Red Ryder reference... just learned this year that that movie(that was an xmas fave of my brothers) was filmed in St. Catharines which is way neat!

good to throw in the Bat-family and their current working relationship with Selina... Damian is priming for HIS own heartwarming get-in-the-Christmas-spirit tale
Is that some whale portrait?

good question... and good art all ish
7-8
good answer... though a bit stretched out
9-10
this is how to keep her as an anti-hero... or title is doomed if the trio is bad for just bad sakes
11
excellent IMPLIED violence panel... plus this telling page shows her true power level that should be stunted in Gotham with its concrete foundations or title is doomed if she cant crush any threat like this there too
12
imagined the salutation fittingly intoned with little cheer and looked forward to seeing Harleys home life... good page
13-15
great 1st(for me) meeting of the family that influenced her... blows $300,000???!!! sheeeesh
16
fun name dropping... Stargirl: HAH!- burn
17
perfect father figure... some character in the title should comment on his facial resemblance to The Joker (especially with that last panel) - WOW the creepy implications to further mess with Harleys personality
18-20
typical jibber jabbing with Harley... though a bit stretched out
21
together again... hmmm, the presumably The tough-as-nails Carpenter looks a bit too pudgysafe all bundled up
22
hq handbook info... an appropriate present for the readers
23
perfect ending... this aint Kansas afterall
I miss you, Dan. This banner is for you.
