Absolute Swamp Thing by Alan Moore Vol. 1

Product Information

Moore is great at making Woodrue a truly horrific villain while still (somehow) obeying the Comic Code that was still in place early in his run. Not this one, it’s relevant to the story you’re reading and also mentions what’s going on in the mainline story that’s interesting but not invasive.

With modern-day issues explored against a backdrop of horror, Swamp Thing s stories became commentaries on environmental, political and social issues, unflinching in their relevance.He is also the mastermind behind the America's Best Comics line, through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Promethea, Tom Strong, Tomorrow Stories and Top Ten.

He makes you understand that horror is very important in our lives and the impact of horror to this day, can be not just scary, its needed. Created out of the Swamp by a freak accident, Swamp Thing is an elemental creature who uses the forces of nature and wisdom of the plant kingdom to fight the polluted world s self-destruction. Btw podróż po zaświatach jest absolutnie jedną z najlepszych w historii popkultury, a ta niespodziewana kwasowa i zanurzona w niezliczonej ilości wizualnych metafor scena seksu po prostu wbiła mnie w fotel podczas czytania. Durante la lectura no se te pasa por la cabeza ni una sola vez que esta historia pertenezca al mismo universo que el resto de personajes superheroicos de DC porque el tono y la crudeza de sus páginas no son propias de los mismos (exceptuando a Batman en contadas ocasiones). I tym razem jego dzieło zafundowało mi cudownym rollercoaster pełen fascynującej grozy, gęstej tajemniczej atmosfery oraz czasem wręcz iście kwasowych podróży.He is also the mastermind behind the America's Best Comics line, through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Promethea, Tom Strong, Tomorrow Stories and Top 10. This is a timeless supernatural horror story, yet its psychedelic mysticism, humor and love give it hope. Quizás los primeros humanos que habitaron la tierra compartían tímidamente la fusión que la Cosa del Pantano tiene con la naturaleza.

He is also the mastermind behind the America's Best Comics line, through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Promethea, Tom Strong, Tomorrow Stories and Top 10. I dislike Stephen Bisette's way of portraiting shadows, using straight lines, and the faces and some panels are inconsistent. Alan Moore’s legendary run of Swamp Thing tales is collected in Absolute format at last, completely recolored for this new edition! En cuanto al apartado artístico, tiene ese característico estilo clásico que contrasta el negro con colores semi-planos, exceptuando en la portada del tomo y en algunas otras portadas.

The art is far more consistent here, without Shawn Macmanus' unfortunate stylistic difference being a little too jarring to meld with the other artistic luminaries.
