“People say eat the rich. But nobody ever does it. I’m just saying, maybe we should.”

Lmao I adore Pam. She’s a hoot, and I love me a little murder, mayhem, and criticism of capitalism and current society with my wlw romance.
This one feels pretty contained in itself and I’m anticipating a pretty fun turn around on some themes for the next instalments.
The letter framing is adorable. And the art gorgeous. Also a little spooky-grimy, in the best way (

and speaking of spooky, ivy’s Batman hallucination is absolutely hysterical LMAO. (But not subconscious. As Dom noble would say, if you can see the weird bat shadow following you it’s not SUB - and thus BELOW - your conscious awareness of it!

)
I mean. Fungi. Y’know. It’s beautiful in a kinda creepy-crawly way.
Oh and Harley? Holy HECK is she cute in this version pspspsps.

Very fun, a little gritty. Getting into DC comics is turning out very fun for me!
Ofc, Ivy was always going to be a favourite. I like the way this first one sets up Ivy’s ideals and comes to a resolution that im guessing is going to make the next ones a really fun romp.
(Also i just like societal criticism with my art. Its not like she’s really wrong lol.)
