I loved this story and most of the art.
This will be a great journey for me to discover the comical infamous villains of Batman.
I need to read something similar though about Superman even though it looks like Superman has only one worthy infamous foe and that would be Lex Luther but well who knows really, I am still too early in the series to make any Assumptions Which isn't going very well because of the fact that the team doesn't look like they have clear plan for the whole run, Feels like they are just making a monthly not leaving a Legacy.
So, The story is told by The Joker which is always great if you know how to mimic the Joker and how to be on his same level of crazy.
Poison Ivy as well is presented in a great fashion, Mini origins, Her believes and her goals, And lets be Just for a second here is Poison Ivy really crazy?
She got into an accident that made her part plant and made her able to commune with all planets on earth and hear their cries of agony and torture, And as a part of that race she is determined to save them and punish anyone who harms them.
That in my book is not crazy, Its more like A Struggle of her race against our race, A Struggle which we are subduing and winning.

"Poison Ivy has the green thumb... but all she ever shows the rest of the world is her middle finger."
Environmental issues discussed in the form of crazy vigilante action story. Really cool art!

Why is Ivy a villain again? I just see a beautiful Goddess protecting the planet.

Very unhappy about it...the graphic was good and the story ...However, I expected more from an Ivy comic.
Action
The main plot is about Ivy's Revenge on there people who were destroying the mature with their company and Batman who was trying to catch Ivy.
Impression
I like that Poison ivy is one of those villains with a backstory and motivation behind her crimes. That may be the reasson she's my favourite Dc villain. I learn from this story about nature and the atrocities that has been happening about it in world for so long.
Furthermore, i learnt about belief and independence.
Conclusions
It was cool but not my favourite comic or Close to this, just a story about my fave one.

Good read
Nice little origin story. Loved that the joker narrated it. Worth a read for any dc comic book fan. Yup.

I didn’t mind the story but felt like Ivy was very overly sexualized.

(3-3.5) the story was ok but I feel like ivy was oversexualized as usual:/ nothing particularly memorable which is kind of sad considering she’s one of my favorites in the rogues gallery:(

Yeah, you can tell a guy wrote this. Story also felt rushed.

Nice short one shot
Probaly my favorite Poison ivy design. And the elongated mouth of the Joker is a really cool conception of his design.

"When it comes to plants, poison ivy has the green thumb...but all she ever shows the rest of the world is her middle finger!" Y la amamos por eso.
Amo que la historia la cuente el joker.
Los gráficos son una maravilla (a excepción de ciertos momentos de ivy pero bueno, más de lo mismo).
