Only when the plant consciousness behind the scenes acted personally did one realize how weak its usual spokespersons were.
Poison Ivy had once created hypnotic plants that covered all of Gotham, turning the entire city into puppets to play games with Batwoman. When she visited Metropolis, Harley had egged her on into growing carnivorous vines and brawling with Superman. Her combat power was quite impressive, and she even had immortality.
