Swamp Thing

Swamp Thing 41-46

A really good string of stories here.  The first is a two-parter where the actors filming on location at a southern plantation start reliving the traumatic events from one hundred years ago.  

So true.

I'm with Abby.  Sometimes it's preferable to stay behind.

So amused by this illustration of turning in one's grave.

Issue 43 shows what happens when people on opposite ends of the moral spectrum eat Swamp Thing’s fruit.  The fruit is basically nature’s super soldier serum.  The effect it has on a dying woman is magical and bittersweet.

Issue 44 introduces the Bogeyman, and it’s amazing how much Neil Gaiman will mine from this for one of the best issues of Sandman.  

And from this will be born the cereal convention...

45 give Alan Moore’s explanation for why the Winchester Mystery House was built.  46 is a meh Crisis of Infinite Earths tie-in.
