Absolute Swamp Thing by Alan Moore Vol. 1

Product Information

By the time they'd finished their work four years later, SWAMP THING by Alan Moore, Stephen R, Bissette, John Totleben, and Rick Veitch was universally recognized as one of the handful of titles that defined a new era of complexity and depth in modern graphic storytelling, and their run on the series remains one of the medium's most enduring masterpieces. Something I would'nt recommend to a friend because my guess is they would judge it to be confusing and silly. There was so much that happened in this trade but I don’t want this review to be too long so I’ll try and keep it brief.

It seems like that’s the message, that these superhero stories are just reoccurring and cyclical to the point of madness. Btw podróż po zaświatach jest absolutnie jedną z najlepszych w historii popkultury, a ta niespodziewana kwasowa i zanurzona w niezliczonej ilości wizualnych metafor scena seksu po prostu wbiła mnie w fotel podczas czytania.At long last, DC Comics is proud to present the original early appearances of Swamp Thing in prestigious Absolute format.

Y es que, para aquellos que leemos cada una de sus obras con afán casi religioso, se hace más evidente a medida que avanzamos por su vasta obra que, muy a contracorriente de aquellos que se especializan en cierto campo, es decir, aquellos que saben todo sobre poco, Moore parece saber un poco sobre todo, lo cual, en esta época, realmente es impresionante. His deconstruction of the classic monster stretched the creative boundaries of the medium and became one of the most spectacular series in comic book history. I would be remiss to mention that psychedelics also would have played a massive part in writing this based on the immaculate visuals and experiences Swamp Thing has. The debate about the new colouration aside (come on, you don't expect that at some point DC won't try and re-release this with the original colours and try and charge us all again, but enough about that pond-scum of a company. The sleeve it slips into is really pretty and the spine alone gives me the chills with how cool it is.He is also the mastermind behind the America's Best Comics line, through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Promethea, Tom Strong, Tomorrow Stories and Top Ten. I always enjoy reading an author and seeing similar ideas get played out - noticing the changes and enhancements, like he's got this idea and keeps trying to perfect it.

I’ve spent the past 3 days pouring over these pages and have gone back and read numerous issues just to gawk at how accomplished Moore was even before books like Watchmen and Killing Joke. There are few artists who could bring Moore's sublime vision to life, but Bissett and Totleben are more than up to the challenge, to the point where, should they no longer appear on the book, I may have to invent a time machine, go back 40 years to this books creation and get a riot going.

This is a timeless supernatural horror story, yet its psychedelic mysticism, humor and love give it hope. Mis partes favoritas sin duda la lucha contra Woodrue, el retorno de Arcane y ese escalofriante capitulo con Abigail, la Cosa viajando entre los mundos oníricos y las fronteras del infierno y el capitulo final con la unión sexual-metafísica de Alec y Abigail. There are a couple more appearances in this book mostly because of the tie in to Crisis on Infinite Earth, we see Batman, Cain, Abel, Doctor Fate, Zattana and a couple of Moore's favorites like Deadman, The Phantom Stranger and Etrigan. With modern-day issues explored against a backdrop of horror, Swamp Thing's stories became commentaries on environmental, political and social issues, unflinching in their relevance. Comprising three deluxe hardcover volumes, ABSOLUTE SWAMP THING BY ALAN MOORE debuts completely new coloring for every page, crafted exclusively for this definitive collector's edition by legendary color artist Steve Oliff (Akira, Miracleman).
