The bad girls of Gotham meet the good girls of Riverdale!

Hiram Lodge (Veronica’s father) 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 (a.k.a. Poison Ivy) 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.

This groundbreaking miniseries teams up two of fandom’s best-known duos, bringing the ladies of Gotham and Riverdale together for the first time! This madcap mayhem comes courtesy of Paul Dini (Harley Quinn) and Marc Andreyko (Wonder Woman ’77), with art by Laura Braga (DC Comics: Bombshells)! Collects Harley & Ivy Meet Betty & Veronica #1-6.

does justice to all the characters.

It’s hard to say what, exactly, this comic does right. I think it’s that every character has exactly the right motivation to do what they’re doing. One thing g to note, this Archie’s reboot era and Betty and Veronica are more enemies than friends. Also, the art style is in inline with current superhero books rather than Archie’s typical style.

I just got this in the mail today. I ordered it back in March. I am a huge Harley and Ivy fan. I am also a fan of Betty and Veronica, the Archie's comics. Getting this was great. The hard cover is so nice. The comic itself is great. I highly recommend reading this.

Another stellar edition of the Harley and Ivy team up. Adding Archie and his friends to the mix was quite clever.

'double Freaky Friday adventure'

Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2018

First, a thank you to Edelweiss and DC Comics for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I generally love crossovers across all media – having a preference for character-driven stories myself, the interactions between different characters, particularly when it’s their first meeting or they are from different worlds, really intrigue me. I think this story would have landed with me more if I were a huge fan of the Archie Comics – they’re on my TBR, I’m getting there – but being pretty new to that world, I was more interested in the Harley & Ivy part of this story.

The main focal point of the book is really the relationships within the two pairs, as both Harley & Ivy and Betty & Veronica get a fair bit of development in their own core relationships, which was nice to see. In all fairness though, when it becomes apparent that two of the most notorious super-villainesses in Gotham have a healthier interpersonal relationship that you do, it probably signifies time for a change, don’t you think?

The writing itself was pretty good, though I found the inclusion of the Reggie/Joker arc a bit superfluous. Personally, I don’t think Harley requires a version of the Joker in this story, or any for that matter, and I didn’t see how it added anything or moved the plot along. The art was a different style from what I’ve seen before, and fit the backdrop and story quite well. Whilst, it was an interesting filter to see Gotham through I think I prefer the cover art style personally – but that is just my preference.

Overall, this double Freaky Friday adventure with two of the most iconic all-female duos was a fun, colourful read, even if it was slightly uneventful and I didn’t actually find it all that hard to envelope Riverdale into the ranks of the DC Universe’s fictional, caricature cities. I’d recommend this to lovers of both Archie & these 2/3 Gotham City Sirens but if you’re not big on either, you can perhaps give it a miss.

Writing Quality – 6/10
Image/Illustration Quality – 7/10
Character Development – 6/10
Overall – 6/10

Paul Dini, Marc Andreko, Laura Braga, and Adriana Melo’s “Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica” begins with Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn hiding out from some former criminal associates who are after them. When Ivy sees a news story that Riverdale’s Hiram Lodge plans to develop a protected swamp as the site of a business school and strip mall, she and Harley set out to kidnap him. They crash Veronica’s costume party, where Betty and Veronica are dressed as Harley and Ivy. Seeing an opportunity to kidnap the girls, Harley and Ivy’s plans are thwarted when special act Zatanna casts a spell that goes awry, causing the four women to switch bodies. Harley and Ivy, inhabiting Betty and Veronica’s bodies, try to use their position to block development of the swamp. Betty and Veronica, meanwhile, just want to get back home from Gotham City, but they inadvertently lead the criminals back with them. There, they discover a bigshot gangster was underwriting Lodge’s development in order to sabotage it and collect the insurance money.

Following the comedy style of the New 52 “Harley Quinn” comics, writers Dini and Andreko find more in common between the worlds of Riverdale and Gotham than one might expect. Similarly, Braga and Melo’s art captures the current look of both the “Archie” and “Harley Quinn” comics, blending the two in a way that works unexpectedly well. The premise itself may seem odd, but fans of both will find plenty of great character moments and in-jokes to appreciate in this story. Best of all is seeing Dini return to the character he co-created!
