Swamp Thing #33 - "The Wolf and the Lady, Part One"

[arbre_rieur]

"Alec Holland has been given so much power and he doesn’t really know what he’s supposed to be using it for. Imagine someone’s given a machine gun and told they have to fire it – but when, and at whom – that’s up to the person holding that gun. That’s Swamp Thing right now." -- Charles Soule



Meanwhile, Swamp Thing's allies are having a relatively quiet moment:

This seems like an attempt to do Swamp Thing's Knightfall

[zapbiffpow]

Oh, I remember this issue.

"Avatar...too strong." HELLS YEAH.

Swampy's best New 52 moment of awesome yet. Somebody give Soule a Wonder Woman arc.

Also make a plush toy out of Chibi!Swampy back there.

[aperturedreams]

Good news, he's writing next months "five years later" issue.

[zapbiffpow]

Excellent. Or, to put it in less Mr. Burns-y terms, nice!

I love how the demon-things just go "oh, screw this!" and quit.

Soule is probably the best of the new crop of writers to pop up alongside the new 52 and Marvel Now.

[md84]

Heh. 'crop'.

...because he's writing about a plant-based superhero.

[q99]

Yea, agreed.

[shadowpsykie]

.... why are they attacking him?

[arbre_rieur]

The Wolf and Lady Weeds? They want to get back to being plant creatures/one with the Green, and they can do that by taking over his body.

[glprime]

Swamp Thing ain't nothin' to fuck with.

There's nothing quite like posing knee deep in the corpses of your enemies.

"I sure wish someone had a camera right now... I would look so badass. Maybe I'll just keep standing here a while longer. I've earned it."
