Ivy design by Jenn St. Onge for the upcoming graphic novel The Strange Case of Harleen and Harley
Merida, that you?
Maybe I was reading too much into it but I felt like it was a taunt for us, the Ivy fanbase, who keep wishing she gets half the exposure as Harley does.
It reminded me a bit of that lame moment in Justice League vs. Suicide Squad where Harley taunted Diana that she was more popular... and then IRL the Wonder Woman movie outgrossed Suicide Squad.
An original design by Mindy Lee that I think would kill it in a more younger audience-oriented animated show.
It's so amazing that even Kevin Wada drew his own rendition of it
CBR writer Brandon Zachary theorizes it was none other than The Great Darkness, the Big Bad of Dark Crisis
Which now raises the question that if The Hunt is in continuity with Dark Crisis, where does that leave the Ivy solo?

I'm not sure, I think that from what I've seen, Harley Quinn's Ivy's life kind of revolves around Harley a bit too much for my liking. However it makes sense because it's Harley's show, so everyone will kind of focus on Harley, even Gordon's obsession with catching her vs every other villain. While I'm more of a fan of mad scientist villain Ivy, if they are to take from the more sarcastic take from the Harley Quinn show, I'd definitely would want her to have more of her own things going on.
When BTAS Harley and Ivy had their outings Ivy was CLEARLY the one in charge and the brains of whatever scheme they were up to. However, you also saw that Harley was a bit less competent and was more prone to goof off with Ivy in comparison to where she was practically second in command with Joker (however I guess Joker having smaller time goons like Rocco and Henshaw, or the Mo, Lar, and Cur gave Harley a bit more of a hierarchic role)

I was talking about the show itself. I don't think its version of Ivy will leak into mainstream comics unless Season 3 blows up on unprecedented levels.
I kind of like that the show has Ivy doing her own things separate from Harley though like the eco-terrorist (activist?) missions. I hope to see more of that in S3 after S2 took a detour and became My Best Friend's Wedding but with Julia Roberts' character winning
