Poison Ivy the wraith of Flora

Dr. Pamela Lillian Isley also known as Poison Ivy who has proven to be one of batmans more powerful Rogues by displayiing anything clos to superpowers the supervillianess made her first appearance in Batman #181 in june 1966. Ivy is depicted as one of the world's deadliest eco-terrorists. Isley is obssesed with plants,botany and environmetalism.   Ivy is not a saint or rose for that matter she uses toxins as well as mind controlling pheromones for most of her activities which are aimed at protecting the natural environment. A fun fact Poison Ivy has been potrayed as a love interest for Batman. In one instance Ivy was robbing a charity event that bruce wayne happened to be attending an in the chaos Ivy kissed Mr. Wayne her toxic lips planted a seed of toxic rapture in bruce later on she kissed a dying Dark knight actually curing him instead of finishing him off quickly. That first meeting established their romantic tension that we see over time grow more towards spite for the dark knight seeing him as an enemy no longer a lover. In 1966 Ivy had no established origin story her character was modeled after bettie page with the same hair cut and given the same southern accent as page she was just a temptress. Ivy was heavly promoted after the rise of feminism she pointed out the need for stronger independant female villians in batmans universe and used to replace a conflicted sympathetic catwoman batman needed a true female antagonist. Following the Maxi-series Crisis on infinte Earths which massively retconned the entire history and  continuity of the DC universe , Ivy's origins had been revised in secret origins #36, 19988 Pamela grows up to wealthly emotionally distant parents. She studies advanced botanical biochemistry with alec holland under Jason woodrue who seduces Isley he injects her with posions and toxins as an experiment causing her transformation. Now here comes the fun part because of the experiments that transformed pamela the amount of animal plant based toxins in her blood streammake her touch deadly an allows her to boost her immunity to all poisons,viruses,bacteria and fungi. She is also immune to the joker venom but is she more plant then woman some comics have her breathing CO2 and the need of sunlight to survive. After some pratice time ivy could conciously control her appearance instead of having permanent green skin from the vegetable toxins and chlorophyll in her tissue. Having a body that produces pheromones that make people susceptible to mind control around her strong minded people like the batman are capable of resisting. Ivy was able to control superman with the use of Kryptonite and ordered him fight batman, the bat survived. lastly she can control plants with her mind there have even been times when she communicated with the magician zantanna through heer vase of roses. so in my opinion Ivy is not to be messed with. She a true force of elemental nature that can be caged but never truly destroyed. Thanks for reading.
