InPoison Ivy # 1by G. Willow Wilson and Marcio Takara , Ivy imbued herself with a specific fungal spore that allows her to taint others . Poison Ivy ’s newfangled powers contribute to a horrific , hallucinatory way to die out . common ivy claims that it is a way to fortify her connection to the Green , but DC traditional knowledge contradict this notion . Fungi , such as the mushroom that Ivy uses to kill people with , are n’t a part of the Green at all . They are really part of an entirely dissimilar domain called the Grey . Together with the Green , the Grey is a part of the life story force out on Earth that let in the Red , the Rot , and new birthed Metal , which represents machine living on earth .
It ’s unreadable if this contradiction in terms run into a heavy storyline involving Ivy , which it should . The fact that Poison vy feels betrayed by the Green and instead try on to embrace the Grey would be an awesome arc for her coming back into power and becoming a whole unexampled threat . But that does n’t come out to be the case . It await as if Ivy wants to use mushrooms to regenerate her baron with the Green , which seems to contradict everything fan know about the DC cosmos ’s yesteryear .
In fact , the Grey and the Green have been opposed to one another on more than one occasion . Unlike the Green , which is run by the Parliament of Trees , the Grey has no Parliament . It is mainly viewed as a mindless entity whose soul role is to spread and taint as much as it can , which aligns with a lot of what scientific discipline know about fungi in general . As unknown as it might sound evenSwamp Thing ’s Parliament of Trees has its basis in material science . Either direction , it is still very early in this Poison Ivy storyline to draw any classic conclusion . The Grey was n’t note in the first return , but it is potential that it may make an coming into court and set the record straight for this misguided Poison Ivy seeking its power for her own .
