I'm gonna tell you a story, and I'm gonna ask that you let me finish before you say anything.Here’s the deal—on midnight of January 1st, 2000, the world ended. But it wasn’t technology that killed it: It was magic. Now, years later, the Earth has transformed. Magic works (sort of). People are happy (sort of). But this new world isn’t stable, and unless Marguerite de Pruitt and her canine pal, Daisy, do something about it, it’ll tilt into deadly chaos. Good thing they’ve been training their whole lives for this and are destined to succeed. Or so they think.

The definitive origin of the DC Universe s most iconic criminal couple begins here. Eisner Award winning writer and artist Erica Henderson (The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Jughead) charts the complete, canonical evolution of Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy enemies, allies, best friends, and ultimately partners. From the spark of their first chaotic encounter to the moment their bond becomes undeniable, this intimate and sharply funny exploration reveals the messy, heartfelt, and explosive path that built comics most beloved duo. Their journey isn t easy. When the Joker frames Harley and Ivy for a spree of Gotham bombings, the entire city closes in villains, vigilantes, and civilians alike. What begins as a reluctant partnership for survival transforms into trust, vulnerability, and a relationship strong enough to withstand Gotham s worst and each other s baggage. Harley & Ivy: Life & Crimes is the story fans have waited years to see full of misadventure, romance, riotous humor, and the complicated sweetness that defines these two antiheroes at their best.
