This week on The BATTASS Podcast, we’ve got one debut, and one more entry in our season-long trend of villains attempting to go straight, as Harley Quinn tries to navigate the pitfalls of trying to rejoin polite society, and a disgruntled cop thinks he can do Batman’s job better than Batman, in Harley’s Holiday and Lock-Up!
First up, in Harley’s Holiday, Harley Quinn is released back from the asylum after being proved sane, but after a mix-up at a clothes shop, the situation begins to snowball out of control. It’s a mad, mad, mad, mad day on the town, where Harley draws the ire of Batman, the organized mob, and even the military, as she gets into a ridiculous amount of trouble in less time than it takes to say “where are my pet hyenas?” It’s her first outing without the Joker, and she lives up to all the whacky mayhem of her previous appearances, while also making you feel something for her situation as well!
Next up in Lock-Up, Lyle Bolton is fired from Arkham because of his severe mistreatment of the inmates. Six months later, Bolton becomes Lock-Up, a vigilante targeting the people he feels are responsible for the city’s ruin. After what we can only assume is a very expensive trip to see Brandon Brandanowitz, the Brand Manager, Lyle reappears armed to the teeth with crazy, innovative tech that allows for a wide variety of anti-personnel management.
Join Sean and Clay as they get into the nitty gritty of the finer points of Harley shooting people in the face, bringing your hyena to the department store, and when it’s awesome to wear sweet chains. Grab your roller skates, max out your credit card, and join us in putting a boot on the wheels of these two episodes!
