Because where else do you find brightly coloured feathers that seem incongruous? On a fishing lure. Pretty displays designed to attract fish and then plunge hooks through their stupid fishy faces. That's what the Absolute Poison Ivy is. She is something pretty to attract people. Before the monster emerges. Absolute Poison Ivy is just as monstrous as any of the other Absolute Rogue Gallery, possibly even more so. Just that the readers, as the characters, are distracted and attracted, by the pretty-pretty… and of course, where you have feathers, you have owls… And now DC Comics has revealed the cover of Absolute Batman #18. With Absolute Poison Ivy and the Absolute Court Of Owls…
Note that Poison Ivy's face, such as it is, is within a huge Venus flytrap… it's not going to be pretty…
