Absolute Swamp Thing by Alan Moore Vol. 1

Product Information

There are few artists who could bring Moore's sublime vision to life, but Bissett and Totleben are more than up to the challenge, to the point where, should they no longer appear on the book, I may have to invent a time machine, go back 40 years to this books creation and get a riot going. There was a crisis event happening at the same time as this trade so Alan Moore could have been making a big critique on the whole ‘mass meta disaster event’. One of the greatest comic's runs of all time, and whilst I am not going to argue, I'm not quite there yet myself. We get to know more of Swamp Thing with Parliament of Threes, and we finally see the first appearance of John Constantine, who has a pretty big role in this collection. Alan Moore's legendary run of Swamp Thing tales is collected in Absolute format at last, completely recolored for this new edition!

It's a very similar creative team, and they even replicate a splash page of the villain in the forefront and a a city in ruins in the background. It really only salvaged five stars in the final arc, which was just too well told to be anything less than full marks. I tym razem jego dzieło zafundowało mi cudownym rollercoaster pełen fascynującej grozy, gęstej tajemniczej atmosfery oraz czasem wręcz iście kwasowych podróży.

I purchased Saga of swamp thing vol 1 but just saw a post about absolute swamp thing vol 1 which is about twice as big. In parallelo sto portando avanti la saga di Sandman (di Gaiman) che ad oggi, arrivato agli ultimi due volumi, sentenzio come uno dei viaggi più emozionanti che abbia mai fatto.

The book starts off very slowly and reads like a combination of poetry and prose, placed around artwork.The debate about the new colouration aside (come on, you don't expect that at some point DC won't try and re-release this with the original colours and try and charge us all again, but enough about that pond-scum of a company.

Alan Moore’s legendary run of Swamp Thing tales is collected in Absolute format at last, completely recolored for this new edition! His deconstruction of the classic monster stretched the creative boundaries of the medium and became one of the most spectacular series in comic book history.

Comprising three deluxe hardcover volumes, ABSOLUTE SWAMP THING BY ALAN MOORE debuts completely new colouring for every page, crafted exclusively for this definitive collector's edition by legendary colour artist Steve Oliff (Akira, Miracleman).

I wonder why I didn't read this sooner and I found myself waiting to get an edition that is worthy and finally, this is it. Alan Moore, vuelve a crear un personaje del que no puedes escapar, te conmociona su pureza y los dibujos de la Cosa de Stephen Bissette y John Totleben no podrían ser más precisos reflejando la belleza.

This truly is one of the best comics ever made and this is the main reason why Swamp Thing is still a known name today. Plus, Swamp Thing's quest for self-discovery comes to its shattering conclusion, and a harbinger of doom awakens an evil beyond comprehension-bringing together Constantine, Deadman, the Phantom Stranger, the Spectre and others. Una obra muy importante también en el mundo de hoy para concienciar sobre el medio ambiente y como las plantas nos dan tanto y nosotros no hacemos más que robarles.
