Suicide Squad #14 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)

I obviously only got this issue since it's part of "Death of the Family."  I'm happy to say, though, that it does a lot more than "Catwoman" #13 did in terms of advancing the plot of the cross-over event.  We see Harley's reunion with "Mr. J" in this issue and it gives us some insight into her conversation with Batman in "Batman" #14, where she confirms his suspicions that Joker is...different.  Joker is angry at Harley for her relationship with Deadshot and this anger manifests itself throughout the issue, from his initial request to his somewhat shocking attack on her at the end.  You can tell that Harley is more scared of Joker than she normally is and that fear not only drives this issue but adds to the general sense of foreboding that this event is generating.  Although it's certainly not essential reading, at least it's better than "Catwoman."
