Thanks to Joe Bongiorno, who first dragged me kicking and screaming into the mucky mythos of Swamp Thing, and to Paul Giachetti, who created the amazing header banner.

Thanks also to reader 'Alec Holland,' whose support has been invaluable; Mike Sterling, for promoting Swamp Thing and this site; and Kevin Church, for his excellent optimization advice.

And thanks to Len Wein, Bernie Wrightson, Alan Moore, John Totelben, Stephen Bissette, Jamie Delano, Garth Ennis and all the other creators whose work inspired this site.



*Is Swamp Thing Returning in Green Arrow* #7? by Rich Handley Sept. 19, 2010 Some are suggesting that to be the case... Rich Johnston, over at BleedingCool.com, writes: "Will Swamp Thing Return In Green Arrow #7?** Just sayin... that Green Arrow #7 cover released for December solicitations by DC Comics, well, yes, it does look a little like Swamp Thing and Abby—even though she is labelled as The Lady Of The Forest. What with the tree in the Star City forest taht's been featured of late, is this the moment Big Green steps up front in the DC Universe?" A followup comment by JJ Smooth notes, "No doubt it ties to Green Arrow's current status quo. In fact just the latest issue of "Brightest Day" that I flipped through specifically mentioned "the green" (the very term Swampy mentions repeatedly in the classic Moore run). Also the forest showing an immediate regeneration when harmed is another Swamp Thing characteristic. That special tree has some ties to Swamp Thing, probably down in the roots." And nightwing22dg comments, "I'd say maybe. But only if Alec Holland is the new Spectre. Look at that hood." Could this be the long-awaited return of Swamp Thing? (Thanks to reader "Alec Holland" for the heads-up.) Archived News >
