Swamp Thing#5 moved a bit slower than previous issues, at least in my opinion, but in a good way. I guess you could say it felt like the calm before the storm and made for a fine read. We've come this far and I highly doubt this creative team will disappoint us with next month's finale. Read Full Review

Overall then, DCs latest Swamp Thing series continues to be something of a mixed bag. Yes, its an absolutely gorgeous-looking book, but its also one with its fair share of flaws; flaws which are sadly stopping me short of calling it an essential read. If youre a Swamp Thing fan then youre clearly already picking this one up, and rightfully so, but for the casual reader this may be a little harder for you to fully appreciate. Read Full Review

I have been a fan of this mini series from the beginning, but after a strong start, the story seems to be stuck in neutral.  Alec looks for help this issue, and after having the door slammed in his face a bunch of times, ends up in Gotham where there might just be a solution to his problem.  The story is old school cheesy goodness, but unfortunately, the art doesn't quite keep the pace.  If you've been reading up until now, there is enough here to enjoy and get you excited for the finale.  I just wanted a little more meat with my salad.

If you want to look at some great Kelley Jones art then this is the book for you; SWAMP THING fans, however, don't hold your breath. Read Full Review
