and as inspiration goes, this'll do:
Len Wein is on Swampy again.
YES - It's been 40 years since the amazing Mister Wein created and penned the Swamp Thing - granted, he was heavily involved in the second series back in '82, then that one Convergence issue recently, but he's now WRITING the book again.
I love Len Wein's version of Alec Holland - he always reads like an intelligent man, with relevant wit. Fact is, he seems like someone who grew up in the '60s/'70s, and had smart parents.
It's a 6-part mini-series, started in January, drawn by Kelly Jones, and man, is it fun. Moody, with dark humour - exactly the tone of his original run.
I'll be back with six groovy reviews.
Cheers,
Arthur
