Saga of the Swamp Thing, Vol. 6: Reunion by Alan Moore
4.0
Originally read 2006, re-reading September 2015.
Having been banished from Earth to the farthest reaches of the universe, Swamp Thing journeys from world to world searching for a way to go home. The worlds he visits are beautifully realized by Alan Moore and the artists; particularly surreal is an episode where Swamp Thing encounters what is apparently a massive sentient machine-like creature the size of a planet. Meanwhile, on Earth Abby Cable soldiers on, trying to rebuild her life while desperately hoping she will see Swamp Thing again.
This is a wide-ranging volume and doesn't have quite the same emotional impact as the previous, but it's a very satisfying conclusion to Moore's run.
