She eventually reunited with Harley Quinn and explained her survival as Harley ran to embrace her.ĭue to her special affinity for all plant life, Poison Ivy's specialty is Eco-terrorism. The flower grew to gigantic proportions and bloomed to reveal the surviving piece of Ivy had grown a new humanoid body for herself made entirely from plant matter. This flower would eventually be obtained by Wally West (the one responsible for the massacre) who planted it and used the Speed Force to accelerate its growth.

However, prior to the event, Ivy used the power of The Green to give Harley Quinn a part of herself in the form of a flower as a token of their love. Ivy decides to go there for guidance, where she starts to recover - only to get caught up in a massacre which seemingly claims her life. Harley Quinn came to comfort her and told Ivy of a secret haven where troubled superheroes go to get help in dealing with personal issues called the Sanctuary. From that point on, she became the Eco-terrorist known as Poison Ivy.Īfter the events of DC Rebirth, during which she had tried to control the minds of every living being in an attempt to protect the environment, Ivy began to dread about the deaths she had unintentionally caused in the past. However, she was splashed with her own chemicals, giving her the ability to control plants and her pheromones, connecting her to the Green, and making her be unable to affected by viruses and poison. She rushed back to get what she could, with her main target being a serum she made from her research on botany. However, Bruce denied her plan due to it being similar to brainwashing, quickly fired her, and explained that the company now owns her research, much to her dismay. Her plan was to use pheromones to get clients, proving it due to her getting the interview with him due to it. After the city was restored, Bruce Wayne looked into Pamela's plan when she came to him with a project to cut the advertising division by 100%. Luckily, Batman defeated the two and started a process to remove the plants. However, the Riddler and Karl Helfern stole her plans and used it to make plants overtake Gotham City in an event that Batman called "Zero Year". Later, she helped a man with a project that would allow plants to grow faster.

With the help of the Dean, she later became a research assistant at Wayne Enterprises. He later died the next day, with the poison used being unable to be found. After she graduated, she visited her imprisoned father, kissing him while he was there. These pills helped her significantly when the Dean, under their effects and controlled, decided against her expulsion and got her out of jail. In college, she designed pheromone pills to study their effects. This one day resulted in the violent man murdering his wife, which led him to be imprisoned for the rest of his life, as Pamela was sent to live with a relative. Her doctor did prescribe some lotion that would help her but her father banned her from being outside completely.Īfter resorting to abuse against his wife when she did let her out one time, Pamela's mother shrugged off the black eye he gave her and went outside to garden, explaining that she liked her hobby due to flowers listening to her, which unluckily resulted in a loophole of her father always gaining forgiveness for his violence against her by buying flowers. In this continuity, Pamela Isley was born with a weakness to sunlight. Poison Ivy's history was altered for the New 52.
