A Return to Horror in Swamp Thing Year 2
Again we have swamp thing entering an isolated village with no ties to the outside world. Again we have the usual shovel-wielding mob - a situation even Swamp Thing himself admits to getting tired of. But, cliché though it may be, it's far better than seeing Swamp Thing dressed in a trenchcoat and engaging in standard superheroics like the last couple issues.
Again we see the influence of Roy Thomas ' version of Conan , with Swamp Thing as wandering adventurer. This time, in case you couldn't guess by the cover, it's a H.P. Lovecraft inspired tale. And while the story is pretty routine and predictable, it's at least nice to see the series back on track.
