Dec 08, 2022After getting off to a tremendous start in the first arc, 'Poison Ivy' kicks off the second with the same emotional eco-horror energy while building off what came before to enter a new phase for the green-loving villain. Everything about this book just works and fully proves the idea that any character can support a series with the right energy and creative team behind them. Read Full Review

Dec 06, 2022G. Willow Wilson's second arc of her impressive Poison Ivy ongoing continues Ivy's quest to save planet Earth and the Green with a newly focused mission that emphasizes her anti-capitalist agenda and personal growth, while new series artist Atagun Ilhan brings the perfect level of gravitas and horror to Ivy's renewed quest.

Dec 07, 2022It's always a good day when Poison Ivy comes into my life. I'm very excited about the next arc we are going on as Wilson seems to have a great plan, from what I can see! Everyone gets Ivy and her story, which is really what we want from her artistic team. The spy element is exciting and I hope we get to see more of this new, sneaky Pamela. Read Full Review

Dec 06, 2022Ivy trying to infiltrate a company as a humble farmer is pretty funny, and this issue continues the series' effective strategy of having her move around constantly, surrounding herself with a new supporting cast she never lets herself get attached to. What doesn't work quite as well is the new villain, a powerful "girlboss executive who oddly looks a lot like Punchline. Read Full Review

Dec 06, 2022Final ThoughtsPOISON IVY #7 is carried largely on promise, but that doesnt make it a bad comic. The story remains compelling, and Ivy seems to have gone through genuine character growth. The revelation in the final page also adds surprising stakes. I look forward to reading this new arc. Read Full Review

Batman-News - Theresa Campagna
Dec 06, 2022Poison Ivy got 6 extra issues because of how many people were buying the series, only to have the added arc take a completely different direction. The change is far too sudden for me, and I imagine there'll be other readers lost at this point. That is, unless, the crowd that DC is listening to puts their money where their mouth is and shows there truly is more interest in Ivy as a hero. Read Full Review

If the first arc felt like something out of THE SANDMAN, this new arc gave me heavy early 2000s Vertigo charm. I'm excited for this arc and this new villain shows promise!

While I enjoyed this issue overall and I like the direction this book is going, the main thing that holds this back for me is the art. In my eyes, it's somewhat inconsistent. It looks great in some sections, specifically when Ilhan draws more plant-related things, but it also just looks weird in others, such as different shots of Ivy and other characters. It also doesn't help when you've become used to Marcio Takara with a hint of Brian Level in the past two issues. Despite my mixed feelings on the art, I still enjoyed the story here and I think this is an intriguing new direction for Ivy.

Poison Ivy fights more plant monsters after absorbing Woodrue and finds a new villain in way of a corporation only to get in over her head. I thought Harley was coming back. Let's face it, there is only so much you can do with Poison Ivy on her own, which is why this was supposed to be a mini-series. I think it's already dried up unless you can start pairing her with other characters. That's why she was brought into Birds of Prey. I'll keep reading until 12, but if they don't spice it up soon, I'll probably drop it.

I'm a little confused by this opening of the second arc as if I'm honest I would say it was written by the same writer but scripted as an environmental green issue by a man. I'm aware this goes on in comics but this was slow , predictable and Pams voice was a little to matter of fact drab. Hopefully the pace will pick up a lot as the arc moves on. I also found the art a little by numbers and I'm really disappointed as this had a win all over it.
