*Non-Spoilers and Score At The Bottom*
On this rainy, sixty degree day in fucking February
of all things, I feel ready to return to the humidity of the Houma, Louisiana
swamp, where our clotted green vegetable man hangs his hat. If he grows a hat,
that is. Actually, he could probably just take his head off and leave it on the
nightstand, if he were so inclined. That’s the upside of being the Swamp Thing.
The downside is that you’re a shambling horror that causes most red-blooded
people to recoil in abject terror. That’s how life is, you know? You can have a
really good jump shot, but you also have uncontrollable flatulence. Or you are
an expert archer, but you have an unnatural compulsion to lick the undersides
of public toilet seats. Life will always find its balance. This comic’s found
its balance with issue number two, which I read, enjoyed, and then reviewed.
What’s that? “Show all work?!” Well read on then, “professor!”
