Only for it to be a B-plot in the Fear State arc and for her to reunite with Harley, which... a month later...

So we are back to square one in a repetitive cycle that has trapped the character ever since the [I]Rebirth[/I] era began. There's been a new editorial note for a new year, this time in the Ivy story in the [I]Gotham City Villains Anniversary Special[/I] by G Willow Wilson and Emma Rios, hinting at a new series maybe? With Wilson hinting on Twitter that she's involved too.

So here we go again.
On a brighter note, the character has shined in recent AU stories like her first YA graphic novel [I]Poison Ivy: Thorns[/I], the Harley Quinn animated series spin-off comic [I]Harley Quinn: The Eat, Bang, Kill Tour[/I], [I]Catwoman: Lonely City[/I] and she will appear in [I]Dark Knights of Steel[/I]. On the adaptation front, the much anticipated [B]Harley Quinn Season 3[/B] will FINALLY be airing this year and the creators have reiterated increased focus on Ivy this season, so that's gonna be exciting.
What are [I]your[/I] hopes and dreams for the Queen of Green in 2022?
