The return of Poison Ivy!
ua-cam.com/video/5p1yDa0G0-g/v-deo.html
Do you know the batman comic that has poison ivy stealing from bruce wayne on a boat with a seaweed dragon before being defeated by batman, can't seem to find it:(
I hate seeing Poison Ivy defeated by Batman at any time
“Once you’ve caught poison ivy - - You’ll never get rid of it” I think she’s thinking of something else, something less... family friendly.
HA! I understand this reference.
Lol
What?

"Why are all the gorgeous ones homicidal maniacs?" - Batman
TheOtakuKat Men.
That’s what makes them fun
When Sasha said that Poison Ivy wanted to be “Queen of the Underworld”, it took me longer than I’d like to admit, to realise she meant “Queen of the Underworld...of Crime”; not that Ivy wanted to oust Persephone-and maybe marry Hades, as Greek Mythology is where my mind goes, when I hear the anyone talk about the “Underworld”.
ME TOO
I'm shocked that we haven't seen that as plot yet maybe with wonder woman
Bruce Wayne is a sportsman because he owns all the sports teams in Gotham 💡
Robin called him big daddy I hear that lol
There's a football team called the New York Guardians whose logo is a Gargoyle, and I think Bruce would like them very much.
He Probably Does
The “I’m giving this crown to only the best female villain” seems like a parallel to when in Greek mythos Eris offers the golden apple to the most beautiful goddess and Athena, Hera and Aphrodite fight over it
Sounds interesting.
That's cool :) I wonder if that's where the idea came from for the creators...
Amanda K. It would make sense, that the writers are trying to establish a parallel, since Eris causes havoc wherever she goes, so it would be a way to indicate the chaos that Poison Ivy likes to cause
Ah, Poison Ivy is a mutated lady of plants in her genes!
I don't know the story of her in the Batman Comic Books.
But I remember her from Batman: The Animated Series and Batman And Robin Movie 1997.
In the movie of Batman And Robin 1997; she is a Flower Lady (I don't know her name before she become Poison Ivy) working in some lab with a scientists or biologist, who mutated a man with some kind plant drugs to become "Bane".
After she saw the scientist or biologist what he did, she didn't like it, and got irate and disappointed. Then scientist or biologist push her to something of drugs with plants.
She didn't die but she a got mutated, and become "Poison Ivy".
That's all I remember from that movie, when I was 10 in the half and 11 in the half in 1997 and 1998, in my early teens.
Poison Ivy from Batman: The Animated Series is my childhood and teenage crush.
And still today, also from Batman Animated Movies.
She so pretty!!!
Wait didn't Eris give the apple to Zeus and told him to give it to the most beautiful goddess but then Zeus chickened out and gave the apple to this random trojan kid Paris?
Even though they were introduced as throwaway characters, i would love to see modernized/ fleshed out version of Silken Spider, Tiger Moth, Dragon Fly.
Did any of them ever come back?
They could be a trio.
@@knightofarnor2552 Maybe they could work together to frame Poison Ivy for a heinous crime bad enough to make her Gotham's Most Wanted, Dead or Alive! The motive? Something to do with Miss Green-thumb humiliating them over a tiara, diadem, or some-such. Not sure, it was years ago, and who can remember details from that far back?
Re: Robin's comment about Batman needing a cold shower--there was a "Year One" Annual showing Batman's first post-Crisis encounter(s) with Ivy (a panel of which appears at the end of this video). After first meeting her, Batman goes back to the Batcave and talks about her to Alfred while showering. When Bruce starts rhapsodizing about how beautiful she is, Alfred just goes over to the external shower controls and turns the dial to cold. 😁
God, I love Ivy. "Nature always wins"
Poison Ivy looks like she promoting that "reefer madness"
(Suprised those made up villain never showed up in Tom King's run, and made them super important)
According to Batman, Ivy's kisses in later years were composed of cannabis and ergot of rye (an LSD analogue). I suppose this means that the toxins Ivy is immune to include the ones other people take for pleasure. Say, has anyone ever offered Ivy a drink, or expressed surprise at her drinking vodka, and been told she's immune to ethanol?
@@johnburt7935 Wait, I must've missed something because I thought they where administering fungal spores that get into ones body via touch and then attahc themselves to the nervous system.
@@potato_oni7597 She did that, too. Depends on the writer, I expect.
I'll buy her weed.
@@Moonbeam143 And that my friends, is how you run gotham.
I really wanted that character's name to be 'Tiger Mom.' I was about to start writing 'Why have you not used this character?!' mail.
I think they actually have used the name Tiger Moth occasionally, though only as a throwaway.
Why did the comics code dislike Catwoman that’s a video I want to watch
Probably had something to do with her having too much of a dominatrix vibe going on with her use of a whip

Wish Poison Ivy had been in Batman 66.
@@Awestefeld6612 Yes, with Ann-Margret as Poison Ivy, with a flower-named sidekick to go for Robin.
He pretty much had the same attitude when he met Cat-woman for the first time in the Golden Age.
Poison Ivy’s face healed their wounds, cured their depression, and watered their crops. She particularly cares (now) about that last part.
“Evil Bettie Page” is the most apt description of Poison Ivy I’ve ever seen!! I love both equally just as much as the other. 😂
I love one line you didn't use: "Remember the name; Poison, as in arsenic, Ivy, as in irresistible!"
The handcuffs line is such a Betty Page reference. They weren't even trying to be subtle haha
Bruce is a sportsman to explain away his scars and injuries. "Fell off my polo horse, etc"
Poison Ivy from Batman: The Animated Series is my childhood and teenage crush!
And still today, also from Batman Animated Movies.
She so pretty!!!
Mine too, Uma was hot too
Salty sassy Robin is HILARIOUS!
That really is a good description of him in this era.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that Robin can knock a goon out so hard that he in turn knocks out another goon?
That wig, that Batman66 voice, those fashions.... dang that dame was not used yet.
I love Poison Ivy.
I always LOVED this issue... just so campy. Plus it was the first Batman comic I'd read with woman villains, which I adored even though it's mostly just a sexist chick fight. I'd love to have seen Tiger Moth, Dragonfly, and Silken Spider escape into other comics of this era. Batman needs more lady villains!
Seeing how well punchline has turned out they may come up whit more female villains in the future.
More lady villains who are actually villainous! Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn are most commonly antiheroes these days. That's one of the reasons I think Phantasm should appear more often.
Dc needs to get Poison Ivy AWAY from Harley and back to being a villain
For the record, I like your misplaced Bale voice for all eras. It's hilarious.
Maybe Do Adam West for angsty Knightfall era
People also needs too address the fact that later Poison Ivy is a female Purple man. 😐
But which character came with enhanced pheromone control first?
uhm excuse me wtf this means?
@@santadagama6420 Both have pheromones that they use to control others. However purple man is considered a sexual predator and Ivy... isn't. 🤷
@@Harleyxjokerforever are you implying that poison ivy could possibly sexual deviant doesn't hurt as well just because she has attraction pheromones that work on men
@@dcmarvelcomicfans9458 I mean if you look at the story of Jessica Jones. Purple man never actually raped her. He hypnotize her to work for him. Now how is this any different than what Ivy has done to character like Superman, Batman, Catwoman ect? Plus forcing a kiss on someone is considered sexual assault. I believe she did the same with Robin at one point which could categorize as inappropriate behaviour with a minor depending on how old Robins was. Also Her pheromones work on men and women by the way.
Omg those Robin comments. LOL. And Sasha nails them.
Poison Ivy is one of my fav villains, and i am so glad they "grew" her from what she started out as.
How can you avoid that pun? Lol.
Poison Ivy was definitely at her best in Batman TAS
Batman TAS presents some interesting aspects about Poison Ivy but i think the comics show her dark side much better.
I love that the introductions for most of the famous Batman villains were campy and over the top. Personally I feel Poison is more interesting than Penguin and Riddler, I think she works best as a morally ambiguous character instead of being a straight villain or hero.
Same I like to see is an antihero instead of a superhero or full-on villain
Current comics has ruined her by turning her into a love interest and side kick to harley.
@@INFERNO95 DC sees her only as a villain against Batman or a supporting character for Harley. Its one of the two.
This earlier version where she's more about stirring the pot would actually work pretty well with Harley
I wonder if that 'pop' art show was a reference to Andy Warhol's 'Americas most wanted men' which was a show for the 1963 world's fair it was portraits of the hottest male criminals from the FBIs most wanted list. But it was not displayed because of the fear of it's homoerotic overtones (or at least that was the accepted reason, it might be to keep women from being exposed to the hotness of these criminals)
I was wondering if it was a Warhol reference as well
“Good shot Batman! You’ve caught “poison ivy” Batman” I think robin might be a fan of Pokémon
Also could you maybe do a video on the three clay faces. Maybe you could even do something like your cheetah series
Im making a poison ivy/proffesor oak cosplay. Poison Oak.
Kyle Ellis specializes in grass and poison type Pokémon
@@paticakes2024 Yeah And all of them have attacct
There's more than one Clayface?!
@@matthinton19 I think there's been six different versions of Clayface.
"You wouldn't have heard of my earlier fantastic crimes, I committed them in Canada."
That was cool to learn about. Poison Ivy has always been a favorite of mine from Batman's Rogues gallery. Shame the intro was so lackluster but at least Poison Ivy got a chance to shine later.
What do you mean lacklustre? This issue and 183 are amazing !!!
Hahahahah! I was introduced to Poison Ivy by a McDonalds Happy Meal Toy on the early 90’s..... followed by the Animated Tv Show Appearance....
Yay Poison Ivy is one my favorite villains.💚
It's a shame that its sounding more and more like Sejic's "Isley" series is permanently sidelined for health reasons.
This was amusing. Poison Ivy is one of those characters ,with really cool concepts, who's been really poorly characterized over the last 20 years into some bland "antihero"( hate that term). She *can* be written really well, and interesting, but it really does require quality follow up and consistency.
She's too powerful that's the problem she's basically just as OP as Swamp Thing. They can find a way to make Superman work yet when its other characters they end up being such a background character to only solve problems. Basically, if you get hurt Ivy can most likely help, yet that's too easy unless they're gonna go hard into that route.
If they nerfed her a bit, she could be terrifying and well written without the danger of her just sucking Gotham into green oblivion. She started out as a poison/drug expert. If they give her meta plant abilities, it should have a range and an energy requirement. She could play the long game: quietly destroying building foundations by growing roots through things. Or using plant powers to easily grow plants for her poisons and drugs. She could play into ecology trends by making organic plant based foods, makeup, toiletries, cleaning products. Gaining minions who believe her promotion of balcony and roof gardens make up for her targeted murders and damage to Big Corporations. Cult! Cult! Cult!
Ummmm.... it could be that the jokes about "catching poison ivy" where a reference to syphilis being called that in a 50s novelty song of the same name.
U forgot gf of kiteman
Best comic relationship
Here's a vote for Ivy going back to the Bettie Page look. Just the look, not any of the other features of this story.
Also for Pammy to start using Bettie Page's accent, which is so pleasant to hear.
I'm sad that I'm late poison ivy is my favorite DC character
You need Fran Dreschner to voice over Ivy.
You truly have an endless supply of comic book knowledge 🙏 im convinced thats your superpower😂

News Anchor: "This just in; footage has been released of the new super villain calling herself Tiger Moth at the scene of the crime:"
"Hands in the air! And before anyone gives me any crap, I went shopping for my costume on November 1st to save money and it's what they had! I think I make it work!"
News Anchor: "Chilling."
Ive seen Ivy around for years in cartoons and that one movie but it just occurred to me that i never actually knew her origin. Her og goal of wanting to be the hottest chick around is definitely one of the more achievable villain motives lol
Ivy has always been my favorite villainess. I love they made her an avatar of green. Her and swamp are funny together.
I looked up Silken Spider because I'm a sucker for alliteration. It was weird because apparently there was a new Silken Spider on "New Earth" who was a member of the League of Assassins but her write-up is just her role as supporting character in Poison Ivy's origin and nothing about what what the rebooted version did, even though the picture is of the reboot version. dc.fandom.com/wiki/Silken_Spider_(New_Earth)
Poison ivy has always been one of my favorite characters. Ever since seeing her in the Batman animated series as a kid. She was and still kind of is my crush.
It's interesting that one of the fake villainesses looks almost exactly like Superwoman from Earth 3
Don't know how funny they'd be but I would so be here for a meet vixen, gypsy, magpie, tarantula or orca.
Meet Black Orchid!!
SASHA! To prepare for the Suicide Squad movie, I’ve been reading the Ostrander run for the first time, and I’m begging you to show off Issue #4 and the bizarre character that is William Hell, the racist vigilante
Interesting. Do tell more of what u learned.
I believe in that theory that the Joker and Poison Ivy and Joker were an item.
I Don't know why, but everytime Joker and Ivy are together in comics and cartoon, it seems there was something there, like they have sex and never speak of it again; they are immune to each other's poisons and for some reason hate each other's guts after Harley appeared.
Batman's love life in the 60's was werid.
I love poison Ivy’s og outfit. It’s very cute especially with the shorter hair and it’s not too scanty. Though I get the more seductive, scantily clad and deadly look she has more nowadays .
I come here everyday for the reviews, the voices and Sasha's wigs. Always a joy to watch
Robin calling Batman big daddy is my fave 😂
You should cover the story where Batman & Robin actually take on the devil's lettuce from Shadow of the Bat. Floronic Man wanted to get the whole world hooked on the jazz cabbage.
If only she was in the Adam West Batman 🦇 show 📺
Ivy's the best no matter what version in the comics
BRING THE FASHION VILLAINS BACK!!
I want to see Dragonfly, Silken Spider, and Tiger Lady as fully fleshed out villains who are doing evil because they want to. Or at least, maybe Dragonfly is lashing out at people she considered to have mistreated her (including just kids or random outsiders who just came to Gotham); Silken Spider doing evils for the lols and lmaos; Tiger Lady doing evil because she needs to raise her two twin brothers after escaping from her abusive household.
I want them to be villains! BRING THEM BACK!
Holy Sportsball, Batman!
I have always wondered if Ivy's writers were ever influenced by the song by The Coasters.
Batman is Big Daddy, because he's Batman.
Yes it was a lazy story, but they still managed to insert a joke about syphilis so I’m satisfied.
9.04 and 9.13 are amazing shots with Batman spinning from the kiss of Poison Ivy!!!!
I appreciate the evolution with Ivy. But I still think she should be a villains. Humans are still destroying the earth after. California fires and the fires in the Amazons are proof.
Edit; Robin called Batman big daddy. Oh.....my.....god....😰
HarleyxJokerFOREVER hey, this might sound kinda weird since you don't know me but I see you commenting on a lot of the same videos I watch too and I just wanted to say hi and I hope you have a good day. By the way, you watch JMC23 right?
@@shadowknight2171 oh hello. I unfortunately don't think I watch that channel. Or I just don't remember watching it. Hope you're having a good day also.
@@Harleyxjokerforever thanks, I also ship harley x joker too.
@@shadowknight2171 oh yay! I'm always glad find others ship them.
@UCnr_H8KSVXB1aRUWv1b97iQ uh ok I don't care who it is that burning the rainforest I was just pointing out people are burning the rainforest. And Ivy value plants above all else so her having anything but hate in her heart towards human doesn't make sense to me.
A friend and I were just rating different Poison Ivy depictions in animated media (my fave being either The Batman or Harley Quinn, he liked the OG from BAS). We are both equally horrified of the Batman & Robin film look.
Ivy is a lot more interesting with plant powers/green skin. I'm glad they're (most depictions anyway) finally updating her Betty Page look after so long, 'cause it's not like Robin's still running around in shorty shorts.
Love this video, and question: will we see more poison ivy videos?
Does anyone else pretend that every new hair color is just another Sasha from the multiverse.
“Wow he said the title, now he gets a cash prize”😂😂 also, the robin voice is too funny
Your Robin voice is the joy I need in 2020
Only tenuously linked to Poison Ivy, but I’d love your take on Black Orchid, particularly the Neil Gaiman/Dave McKean Graphic Novel.
5:49 working the shaft in a poison ivy story - those clever writers..
I loved the Darth Vader quip, that was very funny and well placed. Now Robin calling Batman "Big Daddy"...Maybe something to that rumor that they were more than just crime fighting partners...
King Shark, Killer Moth, Firefly, Doctor Fate? I would love to see these!
Finally! An Ivy video! BTW, have you ever did an opinion video on the Harley Quinn show?
another excellent video, this channel is GROWING on me. now I'm ITCHING for more. it was TREEmendous. Okay, I stop now.
The Devil's Lettuce? That sounds like something that you would buy at Whole Foods! 😁🤣🌱🌾🌰🥕
I miss this ivy
I actually remember buying this comic at my local drug store, for 12 cets.
cents
I hope you do more posion ivy stories
"He's got Bat-Calamine Lotion!"
Love this video!
3:47 I like how later writers used these three. Chuck Dixon made them a punk-chic rock band then Grant Morrison rewrote them as a commentary on sexualized female villains.
How does Ivy know the addresses for Batman and the villainesses? Who took those glamour shots of the villainesses and submitted them to the museum? Do any of those villainesses show up again? At least for revenge against Ivy?
That would make for a great story !!’ Then Poison Ivy could kick their asses again lol
I got so surprised when the polkadot man popped up on screen I fell of my chair 🤡🤡🤡 great video!!
One of my buddy's "grails" is Batman 181 w/poster (shame you didn't mention that!) She was probably meant to be young kid cheesecake but "Grew" (get it??) into something much more. Harley is still my Queen, but Ivy has proven her worth over time, along with much better writing.
Didn't dragon fly, silken spider and tiger moth come back in the 2000s as members of the league of assassins
All this poison and ivy talk is all well and good, but if I don’t see a whole Harley and ivy video I’m going to be through if fists
The Batman-Poison Ivy relationship kind of steals from the Batman-Cat(woman) dyanmic in Batman #1; the Cat offering Batman a King and Queen of Crime deal, Batman letting her go because she's hot.
Love the hair!!! I remember this issue when it first came out and completely forgot how cheesy the dialogue was at that time. And Robin can really be obnoxious at times. Great vid.
Hey Sasha! Here to say I am super impressed with your videos! I caught you back on Top 10 Nerd, but honestly its hard to be sure of who is actually a fan and who is just reading what someone else put on a prompter, especially for someone who is just jumping in and not knowing who the hosts are. Started watching this channel a few months back and you have totally won me over with your willingness to deep dive into the early history of comics! As an old school fan, I am in for this ride! Keep putting out this work, you are doing something awesome!
You're so awesome,love your videos!
How much editing did you need to get this video to the perfect length of 13:37?
Totally rocking the purple hair btw =)
Your entire look in this video, from outfit to hair, eyeshadow to nails, is so fun!
It’s a 😘 * chefs kiss * of a ensemble!
It is funny seeing Batman trying to Rosalind Shays himself. (Yes, showing my age with an LA Law reference.)
Sasha can u PLEASE do reviews of Batman #339 & 344. I think many on here would love to see those. PRETTY PLEASE!!
Poison Ivy is my favorite villainess
Gosh casually comics, you must have powers a lot like poison Ivy because now i feel love after watching your video...golly...
Im so happy you did this video, ivy is my favorite character in all of fiction. Can't wait for the next one
You had me at "evil Bettie Page."
The gift of overly possessive Robin is one I'll never get tired of
I just wanna say I love your hair, eyeshadow and dress color combination!! And your fingernail polish. Totally noticed how well the colors pop together. 🌈💜
