About the series
In this 2004 DC one-shot, writer Ann Nocenti and artist John Van Fleet bring a moody, psychological edge to the Batman mythos as the Dark Knight confronts Poison Ivy in a tense, rain-soaked encounter. Rather than a sprawling series, it's a single-issue story that leans into atmospheric visuals and a character-driven clash, exploring Ivy's connection to the natural world. A compact, evocative entry from the era, it stands out for Van Fleet's distinctive painted-style art and Nocenti's focus on the twisted humanity within Gotham's rogues.
