Batman: Bad Seeds still unfolds over a single night, with Mayor Pamela Isley\u2019s eco-terror campaign turning Gotham into a prehistoric jungle, but the earlier death tease now reads more like a fake-out.

Here, she\u2019s a patient cut loose by her allies, treated as human, and, by all appearances, nudged by Batman toward redemption rather than the Green-soaked, mythic path built through G. Willow Wilson\u2019s acclaimed run. Detective Comics #1113 also drains a lot of the original suspense. DC\u2019s solicitation says Commissioner Vandal Savage\u2019s <strong>herbicide plan<\/strong> is stopped by Officer Hall, which pretty much gives away that Poison Ivy doesn\u2019t die there.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you keep a close eye on DC Comics, this is the kind of update you\u2019ll want to catch, because it could push Poison Ivy away from the plant-powered villain and eco-avatar role and back toward her <strong>scientist roots<\/strong>, even if there\u2019s every chance the change won\u2019t stick. You can track it in Batman: Bad Seeds, Poison Ivy #49-50, and Detective Comics #1113 from DC Comics.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DC Comics has quietly changed the outlook for Poison Ivy in Batman: Bad Seeds.
