It’s still in the works but I created a map tracing the travels of Swamp Thing throughout the chronology. It will be a bit rough seeing that specific locations are not established until the second series. I will post the link to the map in the near future.
I eventually need to make a list of favorite Swampy covers as well. This one definitely makes the list.
In this issue, Swampy finds himself battling the towns folk of a small village within the Balkan Mountains. We’re introduced to Abigail Arcane while Matt Cable & Patchwork Man are still in the mix.
This issue is packed full of tussling, grappling and angry villagers.

We learn the origins of Patchwork Man, which I will leave for you to enjoy on your own.

This one is located on the inside cover. I of course dropped what I was doing and became a man by ordering a bb gun. I then called my dad for his approval but he didn’t answer. I left a message.
