I think I liked it for a limited series, but there was a lot of things that just didn’t sit right for me. Bruce’s deductive ability seemed to be downplayed for plot convenience, though I did like how the writer framed the “two Harley’s” concept from start to finish. I think it'd make a decent animated film adaption if it got the proper treatment.

I agree that Bruce's characterization was a bit weird, but I took that as him being unhinged for this particular story. Murphy really wanted to go for the idea of painting Batman as the villain in a Joker POV story, and sometimes that worked, sometimes... not so much. That's always a tough line to straddle, because on one hand, you have [i]The Dark Knight Returns[/i]. And on the other hand, you have [i]The Dark Knight Strikes Again[/i]. :sick

The two Harleys thing was definitely an element I thoroughly enjoyed, just because I've been so sickened by the way Harley's been portrayed ever since The New 52 between either being an outright unrepentant murderer like Joker himself, or a self-aware loudmouth that wants to be Deadpool. Dini and Timm's Harley felt like an entirely separate character, by contrast, and I liked that Murphy built in an awareness of that.
