eliyesYou know, it's kind of hilarious (in a not-very-funny way) that so many people who draw Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn together make Ivy taller. Because she's not. Yes, Harley is a short, peppy blonde as compared to Batman, but Dr. Pamela Isley started out as a tiny angry genius of a woman. Alas, she has gotten taller in the comics over time -- blame whoever cast Uma Thurman, I guess.
With Pied Piper and Trickster, it's the opposite -- everyone makes Tricks taller and Piper kinda girly, when actually Piper is taller and has a heavier build. This would be because Trickster is an acrobat, and therefore needs to be strong but light. (See Nightwing.) In fact, when they were admitting to Piper's age and had him retired from crime, they at first had him put on a bit of weight, which didn't look too bad. He's broader than Wally, in the shoulders and face, etc.
I so need sleep. X_X
