Explanation Concering Books Swamp Thing, Vol. 2: Love and Death (Swamp Thing (1982) (Collected Editions) #2)

What Alan Moore, Stephen Bissette, and John Totleben accomplished during their time on the comic book series Swamp Thing shouldn't be underestimated in the history of comics and, specifically, the history of horror comics. The modern comics landscape has been changed by the Vertigo line of books--an imprint that traces its roots back to this version of Swamp Thing. By taking a horror character fully entrenched in a superhero world (as silly as that might seem), this creative team put a new face on horror comics and on horror in general. Swamp Thing: Love and Death is the second collection of the team's work on the series, presented here in full color. Don't let the mediocre Swamp Thing movies fool you, this book is filled with sophisticated suspense and terror.

Collects issues #28–34 and Annual #2.

Weigh Up Based On Books Swamp Thing, Vol. 2: Love and Death (Swamp Thing (1982) (Collected Editions) #2)

My reading through Alan Moore's oeuvre comes, ironically enough, with one of his earliest North American works, and one of the ones he's best known for. I'm actually surprised that it took me this long to get to reading it, due to how influential it is compared to a lot of his other work - it's been argued that without Swamp Thing, Vertigo Comics would never have coalesced, which I think would have had a huge impact on how comics are formatted and marketed today (especially regarding the

The second volume of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing ranges into extremely disturbing territory. There is resurrection, necrophilia, incest, a nervous breakdown, and lot and lots of bugs. That's just in chapter two.This is in many ways a transitional volume. The first half- "The Burial" and the three-part return of Arcane story, puts an end to the original Len Wein/Bernie Wrightson version of Swamp Thing and opens the door for Moore to go wherever he wants with the character.Some of the places he goes-

I need something higher than 5 stars...



This is such a freakin' good book! I think this has become one of my favourite titles at the moment, and it's freaking 30 years old! The art is beautiful and the writing is perfection. Who knew a horror based title could give you such warm fuzzies as you read it's. Alan Moore creates such a believable character, along with the colourful world around it. I loved the guest appearances by Phantom Stranger, Deadman, The Spectre and seeing Etrigan the demon was a treat as well. Low point: The filler

Now I get it. I wasn't blown away by the first volume, but volume two makes it clear why people rave about Moore's Swamp Thing.I'm not sure why I liked this volume so much more. Possibly, it just seems more epic and more suited to the adventures of a creature that is an elemental force, rather than merely another action hero. For me, at least, Swamp Thing's physicality should seem almost an afterthought.Now, I kind of understand where Moore is going. Swamp Thing makes more sense; his supporting

This may be the best bunch of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run (with the amazing collaboration of Bissette and Totleben). It was a hell of a run. Around 48 comics long, and this collection of seven chapters is exceptional. And if one needs any proof that Moore is a truly great author, not just a great "comic book" author, one need look no further than this volume. It's in his metaphors (just look at what is probably the best description of the Flash's everyday existence in the history of comics);
