I support you poison Ivy

Reblog if you support Poison Ivy

That’s my girl.

Man, you wrote a story about how she was “crazy” because you wanted a justification for why she was in Arkham, don’t act like you stan now.

No, funny person, I wrote her original Secret Origin story as a narrative about a man investigating her who sent her to Arkham, after deciding that he couldn’t cope with her and that she couldn’t reliably be manipulated into working for the US government. And if I didn’t love her I wouldn’t have written her Secret Origin or put her in Black Orchid, back when she was a semi-forgotten Batman baddie. I still love and am proud of how much of what I wrote in that ten page comic has survived and become a solid part of the mythology over the last 35 years.

I remember looking at the various Ivy origins before I wrote the story, and realising that none of the people who had come up with Poison Ivy origins had read any of the other comics. She had at least three contradictory origins and a number of different real names because, I think, no one could be bothered to check. I wanted to build something that went all the way back to her first appearance (which I had read, when I was about seven, and which I had never forgotten). I think what I love best about the Secret Origin is that it feels like a foundation stone people have used ever since to build Poison Ivy on. (As opposed to the Riddler Secret Origin I wrote, which put him into a costume he’s used since, but wasn’t really anything to build a character on, because it wasn’t that kind of a story.)

Oh My God

I’ve never seen this added to it before

IT GOT BETTER

Yes! Everytime! I have a thing about candy canes, my family feeds the addiction. When I moved, we found several hundred of them stashed in cupboards.

Someone should redraw this in the classic TT style!

I think someone whispered my name… without actually whispering my name.

Every now and then I see one of those Teo bases that was sold in the USD auction a few years back to help with the charge back issue.  It just makes me really sad to see these babies just sit there, never coloured or finished …   i mean I know they were sold for a good reason… but after a few years if you weren’t going to finish them maybe you should sell them to some one who will?  

I have one of those teos. My mental health has been horrendous and it's been a bad few years. I love my teo but have struggled to motivate myself to colour it. No, I won't be selling it and if it takes a few more years before the motivation to finish it hits me, then so be it.

exactly 1 minute ago i had absolutely no idea what the plants sesame seeds and peanuts came from look like and i am shocked and surprised

that’s it, folks, we’ve reached peak cute

MY FUCKING HEART

@chilllilpug

If I get a custom and don’t name it, it almost certainly doesn’t at all mean I don’t like it!! It means I just didn’t look at it and instantly think, “you look like an xyz”. I rarely get around to actually thinking about what I should name pets. But due to a few confessions by artist saying they like it when the pets they make get names or it makes them worry the person doesn’t like it if they don’t, I’ll be making a much bigger effort to name my customs from now on!

This is something I worry about too, I adore my pets and I appreciate the effort that the artists put in, I’m just really bad at remembering to name them unless I have a name already in mind. I should really take the time to sit down and start working through my customs and giving them all names. 

If it's not possible to find one in-store in Melbourne, maybe you could get someone else to order the binder online for you and you just give them the cash for it. Good luck!

I really adore the deadtail taurs you did for me, thank you so much!
