Swamp Thing 1: The Root of All Evil

A lost Swamp Thing epic written by Grant Morrison and Mark Millar is collected at last. The rug is pulled out from under Alec Holland as he awakens from a coma in a South African hospital. But are the nightmares of a shambling swamp creature the result of a powerful hallucinogen he ingested during his experiments on plants? If so, what is the secret behind the Swamp Thing that's pursuing Abigail Arcane through the Louisiana Bayou, intent on murder?

Collects SWAMP THING #140-150.
