    You can count on Tynion in creating boring names for new characters. He should have given Poison Ivy associated characters plant names.

    I think Guy Gardner is a fun character....oh wait you mean that new character with the plant dogs, she looks cool but that is about all I know.

    I assume that she is created for whatever poison ivy plans are currently being hatched by the bat-family writers, like maybe she is working for Ivy or perhaps shes a competitor. I'll wait and see. Personally I am okay with tynion making more villains.

    What was Ivy doing? Still underground?

    I'm really into the Gardener's design! Very corporate. A business-professional rogue to contrast Ivy's vaguely flower-child aesthetic.

    If she ever interacts with Harley in any way, I hope there's a plant-dog/hyena battle.

    Now, how that connection should look is another question, and I think Ivy's connection to the Green should be different from Swamp Thing's or Black Orchid's or Floronic Man's. The concept of the Green will be stronger because of it.
    Yeah It's the scale Ivy's powers have sometimes that really makes it feel right. Sometimes fighting her really is like fighting a force of nature.

    As with others, I like the idea of making it a bit of a blend - that sometimes she’s not channeling the Green, but running in her own purely artificial powers, but other times she’s got the full power of the Green.

    It might be interesting to make it so her work with/exploitation by Woodrue was his attempt to create an elemental, but artificially, which causes some of Poison Ivy’s shifts in nature, power, and mindset - that perhaps part of the Parliament of Trees supports her candidacy as a peer of Swamp Thing, but her artificiality and the genetic engineering she’d done means others won’t accept her.
    Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?

    I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

    In Damage comics, it is said that The Green uses her as a weapon. The Green amps her up on certain occasions.

    Yeah that was one of the most heroic things Ivy has ever done.

    She's only 5'6"? I think these days she's often drawn taller than Barbara, who's 5'8" to 11", unless they lower her height again to 5" when I'm not looking

    Ivy often gets drawn standing on things.

    I like the theory that even though she is plant-themed, she may not exactly be an environmentalist (as gardeners prune, mow, snip and cut plants) so her ideology may actually be the polar opposite to Ivy's. A kind of Lady Eboshi to Ivy's Princess Mononoke, if you have watched the film. The potential for conflict would be interesting in that case.

    Huh? How did I not know about the existence of this book until now?

    Funny how the plots of so many Ivy featuring stories like this one, Contagion and Snyder's All-Star Batman are incredibly relevant now.
