Ivy’s had enough of Janet’s lies. She’s dragging the mewling, near-dead Janet-from- HR into the woods and giving her what she deserves once and for all. If there’s anything left for either of them to say to each other…now would be the time.
Poison Ivy #38 is a super effective issue in which the interpersonal drama takes center stage, resulting in a deeply meaningful confrontation between the series' two major lead characters. This conflict has been building across several issues and now it has finally paid off in a big way, with Wilson delivering us a satisfying resolution to the conflict at hand. With this resolution we also see major growth in Ivy as a character and her relationship moving forward with Janet. As the series continues it will be interesting to see further developments in Ivy as she grows and nurtures her personal relationships while trying to balance her ambitions and motivations as the self-appointed protector of Earth and Mother Nature.
