Swamp Thing by Alan Moore is so far one of the best comics I’ve read without a doubt in my mind. If you’ve never read a comic you could pick a worse place to start. Like the great horror movies of years past it takes a creature that would normally strike fear into viewers and reader and makes it compassionate, intelligent and human. Even if this series has a dip in quality in future it will not detract from the brilliance of these early issues. READ IT!!!!
