Story 1 - Deep in the bayou, Swamp Thing continues to follow the fifolet, despite not knowing the mysterious spirit’s ultimate destination. On his way he encounters a strange and powerful girl locked away in the swamp, with magical friends and a monster at her door. Story 2 - Swamp Thing has been following the eerie light of the Fifolet as the spirit leads him to people in need of his help. But what if the mysterious ghost light has a deeper purpose? What if it knows more about Swamp Thing’s past than it lets on...and what if it’s trying to lead Alec Holland home?

It's enjoyable and interesting as it plays with familiar ideas and leans them a little bit to look at them slightly differently. Read Full Review
