Comment(s):

This story is an homage to Superman vs. Muhammad Ali from All New Collectors' Edition #C-56 by Denny O'Neil and Neal Adams, with many panels and scenes being almost exact duplicates of the original with new dialogue and with Harley Quinn standing in for Mohammad Ali.
This issue is dedicated to the memory of "The Greatest".

Solicitation:

(Mumble-mumble) years ago, the alien race known as the Scrubb forced Superman into a boxing match for the ages, against Earth's greatest heavyweight champion, (mumble-mumble)! Now, (mumble-mumble) years later, the Scrubb have returned...but with said champion unavailable, the Scrubb have chosen the next-best thing: Harley Quinn! This can't end well for anyone involved. Featuring unbelievable art by the legendary Neal Adams, it's a tribute to one of the greatest Superman stories of the 1970s, in Harley Quinn's own particular, ah, idiom!
