A review by jcovey
Saga of the Swamp Thing, Book 6 by Alan Moore

5.0

What could possibly be left after the universe-saving climax of Volume 4? Where could Swamp Thing have left to go after seeing the edges of reality? Alan Moore manages to impress again, because the final two volumes show that the only thing tougher than a universal threat is a personal one. Swamp Thing saved all of reality, but that's nothing compared to having to learn to control his phenomenal power after the woman he loved is imprisoned by the small mindedness of society. Or having to learn humility in his exile through the stars, for though on Earth he is a god, out in the wider cosmos he's merely one of many. All these lessons prove necessary to deliver what is perhaps the most satisfying conclusion of any comic book run.
This volume alone might rank only 4 stars rather than 5, but I'm using it as shorthand for the entire run which is without a doubt 5 star material.
