I love the idea of Poison Ivy tackling climate change, polluters, and greenwashing, but this story is a bit repetitive: every couple of issues, somebody gets turned into a weird fungus and Ivy needs to make an antidote. On top of that, the art is fine at best.

The spontaneous marathon is complete! Just got a good momentum, and realized I really wanted to know how everything ended. The answer is: the only way it could. After everything that's happened, all the loss and mistakes, tying off some loose ends means acknowledging things won't ever be the way they were. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? Redemption and reconciliation are very much still question marks for a number of characters but the idea that peace, getting people to the table to talk is hard thing, really resonates right now, maybe its one of those perennial truths that we keep having to learn the painful way. 11mo
Robotswithpersonality 3/3 Blue Beetle and Booster; Harley with her olive branch (tree); the moment with Bruce and Clark; Lobo's Lantern 'creations'; there were a number of memorable highlights in this final volume. But boy oh boy am I glad it's not the main continuity! I think it's time for a cheerful Superman comic. 😅 11mo

Wow, that went by really fast. Definitely has its share of dark moments, seemed to be almost entirely fight scenes and planning to fight scenes. Highlights were Hal Jordan's hallucinated 'Jiminy Cricket', and Javelin joy ride complete with alarm saga. ⚠️Animal death

Power outage at the campground last night due to the wind and the rain. Until it warms up outside or the heat comes back on in the cabin, this is where I‘ll be starting the readathon!

This first arc of Wilson's popular Poison Ivy run ended kind of where I wish it had started: with Ivy planning to fight the fossil fuel industry for harming the planet. These early issues felt like an unnecessary prologue in which Ivy realizes that going on a suicide mission to kill all humanity might not be the best plan. I love the idea of Ivy as an eco-terrorist and will definitely check out the next volume.

Yikes. That wasn't good, or fun. Tried to feel like later episodes of Batman The Animated Series with slightly more mature content in some spots, but added up to a bunch of stories where not much happens except Harley ending up bummed out/disappointed. Couple other characters make brief appearances, but again, stories are so short, there's not much to them. As with later BTAS, art goes downhill as well. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I loved this graphic novel! I remember watching Batman: the animated series when I was a kid and loving the character of Harley Quinn. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars.
