Poison Ivy isn’t just dispensing life advice to any wayward child she comes across. I believe it also speaks to the depth of the bond they do share. I, personally, love a more villainous Harley Quinn, but every once in a while, a girl needs to hear the hard truths and Ivy really rises in my esteem for looking out for her companion in this way. It’s also tremendously clear to me that Poison Ivy is the best thing that has ever happened to Harley Quinn, since she is the only character who has ever cautioned Harley against continuing her relationship with the Joker. In the wake of Ivy’s dynamic work, Harley is able to follow her heart’s desire down the path of chaos and destruction that makes her such a force in the Gotham City underworld. For her part, Poison Ivy effortlessly renders Bruce Wayne pliable to their whims, thereby removing any threat to their immediate persons. In keeping with the style of the show the episode is sweet and funny and singularly highlights what makes each of them a true threat to the citizens of Gotham City.

All I have to do is cast my mind back to the Ba tman: The Animated Series episode “Holiday Knights” when they kidnap Bruce Wayne and go on a shopping spree with the billionaire’s uncapped credit cards. When I think of a functional relationship, equal partners who bring out each other’s best qualities is the blanket idea that comes to mind. Doctor Pamela Isley is some 40 years older than Harley in publication history, but the two have enjoyed a relationship on any number of levels throughout the 25 years that the Clown Princess of Crime has been smashing hearts with her synonymous mallet. However, I would posit that Harley Quinn’s greatest partnership-and her greatest romance-is with another iconic Batman villainess. Doctor Harleen Quinzel is probably most famous for her “mad love” romance with the Joker that prompted her creation in the first place.
