Swamp Thing: Infernal Triangles [Paperback]

Rick Veitch (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Alan Moore's mid-1980s run on Swamp Thing--the superstar comics writer's first American series--was tough to follow, but Veitch, one of the artists for Moore's scripts, proved up to it when he assumed scripting duties. In the six 1988 stories collected here, the vegetative hero and his human wife, Abby, prepare for the birth of their improbable child; he travels to Metropolis for a confrontation with Superman; and he departs Earth in the face of an alien invasion. The straightforward art, by Veitch and others, suitably grounds the sometimes esoteric proceedings. Gordon Flagg

This review is from: Swamp Thing: Infernal Triangles (Paperback)

Alan Moore; how do you follow up an act like that on one of DC's great horror comics? By being your own man and doing it your way. While Alan Moore's Swamp Thing explore horror in an often quiet but powerful way. Rick Veitch's Swamp Thing is blunt horror on a Cosmic scale with just the scantest of flavors of Kirby for its boldest. The high and powerful of the DCU get caught in the muck of Swamp Thing.

A very worthy read.
