Biochemist Ted Sallis and his team are on a mission: To recreate the serum that spawned the world's first super-soldier. But like the swamp itself, there are dangers lurking beneath the surface. Ted's partner Eric, his girlfriend Ellen, the government, terrorists - everyone wants what Ted has, but what Ted doesn't realize is that the swamp itself may want him! A radical re-imagining of the Man-Thing's origin begins here, in a horror-tinged tale narrated by Digger, keeper of the Tower of Shadows!

It's a short, but good enough reading. It's violent, sometimes sexy, but not tastelessly edgy. It uses the legacy of first Man-Thing's stories from early seventies to make a solid Marvel Max horror book about the character. I guess I'd recommend it to Man-Thing fans, but casual readers might think some moments are weird or forced, especially everything about Zhered-Na, which has no adequate explanation here at all. Either way it's worth reading, it's better, than many other Marvel Max books.
