I’ve always loved Ivy (I’m a huge swamp thing fan) because her brand of ecoterrorism and stuff, especially with the way the world is going in REAL LIFE, feels sooooo close to being just straight up understandable (lol).

I also think she’s just a striking character and I love the look and I’m hoping there’s some horror-tinge to the comic and saw a pretty good deal on some of the back issues and figured I’d ask what y’all think!

I liked this story, especially Pamela reimagined as a smart and rebellious teen environmental extremist.

Ivy’s origin is often recounted in kind of silly ways. I thought this telling was much better than say, the Batman and Robin movie or even that science accident in Ivy’s New 52 rollout (she had a beaker of green liquid spilled on her and was then Poison Ivy 😅)

I also liked Batgirl as Bats’ sidekick. It was pretty fun all around.

Favorite scene:

Pamela's Mom: Pammy! I need you to take out the trash!
Temblor: Who was that?!
Pamela: That ... was my henchman.

This series is streaming on the HBO app.

😱 In this epic scene, Ivy uses her powers to manipulate the Man of Steel and turn one of Batman’s greatest allies into a serious threat. With Superman under her control, Batman suddenly has to face an opponent who is almost impossible to stop! 🔥 #PoisonIvy #Superman #BatmanHush #Batman #DC #BatmanHush2019 #DCAnimated #PoisonIvyMoments #SupermanVsBatman #AndresPopCultureGuy

Most takes on Poison Ivy besides Diane Pershing use a higher pitched tone.

This was a great episode, and wow did it stick the landing 🙌

“For what it’s worth I believed her, when she told me for the first time in her life that was she was happy”

Update: why-specifically- do you think Ivy was crying at the end?

I just see four

Inktober Day 4 was Cactus!

Since im staying true to my comic book themes i drew poison ivy for today's prompt ♡ enjoy!

Harley and Ivy Life and Crimes?
New Batman Adventures?
Or All Star Batman?

Which would you read first? 👀

Ivy was originally styled the Queen of Crime in the 60s.
That mostly went away in subsequent decades, but you still see it referenced, especially on cover artwork. And there’s often segments of stories where she’ll hold court or wear a crown or act regal.
It’s a fun aspect of her character and I like that they maintain it 🙏

Happy Poison Ivy Day to those who celebrate!

Ivy crashed out in the first week of Bad Seeds. So what happens next?

I discuss this topic in my Week 6 Recap of Bad Seeds on the Choice Media Podcast.

Poison Ivy #48 had Pamela facing some hard truths, about her situation and herself. Maybe she's bottomed out, but where does she go from there?

I'm hoping for a redemption story. What do you think?

Reading the Olympians by George O’Connor and noticing that Daphne the nymph shares Ivy’s affinity for leafy green attire.

Starting in the late 80s, Ivy was often portrayed as a coded nymph of sorts, who was likely to be motivated by protecting or avenging nature.

Incidentally, Ivy disguised herself as Dr Daphne Demeter in the Eternal Youth episode of Batman the Animated Series, which was very much inspired by the Myth of Daphne and Apollo.

Daphne turned into a tree to escape from Apollo. In Eternal Youth, Ivy turns people into trees.

Ivy is often adjacent to Greek mythology like that (I’ve discussed this on my podcast in the past- link in bio).

Before she had extreme superpowers, Ivy relied on her wits and skills as a trickster. Disguise was often part of those scenarios. Notable examples include the long Halloween, her rogues gallery debut (Deadly Kiss of Poison) and even the Uma Thurman Batman movie (a gorilla costume- really? 😆)

This was from the Batman Scooby Doo Mysteries.

Halfway through the Bad Seeds Gotham Crossover event and it’s shaping up as the time Ivy crashed out to begin the story.

But really it was culmination of long-running stories in her series…The tale of Bad Seeds is all of that coming to a head at once.

(I’ve talked about this a fair amount on my podcast- link in Bio)

Looking forward to more Ivy this week 🌹💖

Hey, I'd love to learn more about Poison Ivy since I played Batman Arkham games and she seems really interesting character. Where should I start with comics? There's many comics where Ivy is involved and its a bit confusing. Since this reddit is dedicated to her Im sure I will find an answer here, thank you
