The rotating artists and done-in-one approach keep the book looking sharp and focused. Pina provides a look that fits perfectly compared to series-regulars Jesus Saiz and Kano. Swamp Thing is a star making book, and issue #28 is as good a place to start as any. Read Full Review

Swamp Thing #28 mixes humor and tragedy and though the pacing was a bit off, both stories set up the book for a great future.   Charles Soule is on a roll and as usual I can't wait for next issue. Read Full Review

On artistic duties, we have Javier Pina as opposed to Jesus Siaz. I loved Jesus Siaz's artwork on the previous issues ofSwamp Thingbut the switch to Javier Pina was pulled off pretty well indeed " continuing an impressive display of visuals that has been common throughout the entirety of Soule's run. His panels don't look too jarring and the switch between Siaz and Pina is easy to make and unlike other series involving artistic changes there isn't any adjustment period. Pina's artwork, especially when enhanced by Matthew Wilson's lavish colours, is very solid and to see both of these talents sticking around for future issues is something that will be more than welcomed.

It's no surprise that Charles Soule still has aces up his sleeve to play, as Swamp Thing moves from one overarching storyline into another. Capucine's final reveals are worth the wait we've endured, and the final page cliffhanger here is an intriguing way to end this issue that will have fans scratching their heads (unless they've read the solicitations for future issues, I guess). Pina's artwork is always up to the task, and once again this creative team have produced a highly enjoyable issue of an excellent title. Read Full Review

Swamp Thing #28 helps wrap up all those loose bits floating around at the end of the Battle for the Green and gives Alec Holland some so-called breathing room in a fun stand-alone issue. The issue also works as a stepping stone to the next arc, as well as hinting around at certain things that will inevitably and ultimately become a veritable thorn in the new Avatar's green, moss-covered side. I know that I, for one, am excited to see what Soule does with this iconic character in the future. Read Full Review

The storytelling remains a key strength of Swamp Thing. Despite taking a break from the combat and action, this issue reads very well. Seeing Alec Holland take steps into the world again as Swamp Thing" albeit with new companions"is rewarding. It's a breath of fresh air to see Swamp Thing out of the Green and back on Earth. By using different and interesting techniques, Soule keeps the story from becoming boring. Soule's image is expressed effortlessly through the artwork of both Jesus Saiz and Javi Pina. Although Saiz returns next month, it was nice to see Swamp Thing drawn in a brighter and uplifting way. The cliffhanger, however, promises darker times ahead. Read Full Review

"Swamp Thing" #28 is a slightly above average comic, but one that once again is poised for a strong storyline to come. Considering how many excellent issues we've had under Soule's time on the title, the occasional dip down to merely good is more than acceptable. All in all, a dependable title keeps on moving forward towards more good things. Read Full Review

Charles Soule doesn't balance these scenes with Capucine's origins very well and it makes the issue seem back-loaded with exposition. Read Full Review
