Yeah, okay. This rules.
After hearing so much about the beloved Alan Moore run of the Swamp Thing comic, it's very satisfying to finally read those issues and not being disappointed at all. I spent a lot of time reading the original Len Wein issues first because that's what I got my hands on first and while those did lack a lot in depth and variety, it pays off now to see Alan Moore take elements of those and put them to actual good use. Telling a proper engaging overarching story throughout the issues.
Swamp Thing really grew as a character, which is amazing considering how simplistic and gimmicky its original concept really was. But Moore's talented writing figured out a way to portray him and his supporting cast as pretty rounded characters that go through interesting conflicts.
Add to that the amazing art by the illustrators who created cool, funky creature designs and norm-breaking psychedelic sequences where the panels decide to fuck the traditional format and go vertical, and you got yourself a really inventive comic series.

I'm excited to continue this with the next volume.
