To a certain degree I kind of like Poison Ivy . She reminds me of one of the villains from Legend Of Korra where she has a point that people should definitely respect nature and the environment more but like those villains she takes her beliefs too far. I think she has also respect for Batman deep down. I think there should be an episode where they team up
On Google is gag "greeting card," "Wishing you were here, Pamela Isley," SUMMER GLEESON TIED, GAGGED, IN VINES BEING SWALLOWED BY IVY'S PLANT! Would have made a BETTER plot than this drear episode of Alfred AND old lady friend.
I always loved Ivy's wrist crossbow. Ditto her martial arts skills in the earlier Batman TAS episodes. Showcases how she's a much better combatant than she's given credit for. If, God willing, we ever got a Poison Ivy solo movie, would want both of them to be make an appearance.
Also, why would Ivy tell Batman that the transformation isn't permanent? If he thought it was irreversible, maybe, just MAYBE she could have gotten away with it.
Demeter was more than the goddess of plants - she was the goddess of the harvest. I suppose Ivy would see the story of Demeters daughter Persephone (born with the name Kore) - the Goddess of Spring and Queen of the Underworld - as a metaphor for savage man killing plants. I mean think about it, a young and beautiful girl torn savagely from the world of plants and taken to the dark and lifeless Underworld by an older man simply because he wanted her......
you may handicap batgirl you may kill robin you may even bury batman alive with his dead parents but you fuck with alfred and you just singed your death warrant
