Saga of the Swamp Thing, Vol. 6: Reunion by Alan Moore
4.0
If you have enjoyed Moore's Swamp Thing run, then this is a five star book. It starts as an Adam Strange/Rann Thanagar / Darkseid DC cosmic book before it settles back down to the story More has been focusing on since volume two of his run. Then it puts all the pieces he's been playing with back in the box and ends with a Happily For Now conclusion.
I didn't love most of it, but in the second it third issue in the collection, Moore switches up his entire narrative device game in service of some trippy, non-traditional art. He gets very spiritual, but allowed the art to be center stage.
It works. Aside from the first appearance of John Constantine, it's easily my favorite part of his run. And it made me a little less irritated that Swamp Thing In Space was happening.
I'm still not a huge fan of this run, but he does close it off nicely.
