History[]
Batman History[]
Growing up financially well in Seattle, Pamela Isley was trying to earn her degree in biochemistry. The professor of her class took advantage of her timid and naïve demeanor, doing, well, you know what with her. He also used Isley for plant testing experiments. After the plant juices and toxins made Isley a dangerous, plant-empowered metahuman, the professor fled. Apart from plant-wielding abilities, Ivy suffered from violent mood swings; she could be lovely at one moment and then murderous at the next. Eventually, Poison Ivy moved to a new city, Gotham, where she planned to release life-threatening spores across the city. Her plan was thwarted by the silent guardian of Gotham, Batman, and afterwards she was locked away in Arkham.
