I'm just imagining how finally now CGI could give us the Elemental incarnation of him and make it kickass (like the plant monster Hellboy fights in Hellboy 2).<br /><br />NERD TIME: That short story was reprinted during the early Moore run bringing it officially into canon, the regular artists need some extra time, so it was run with a framing sequence where Abby visits Cain and Abel in a dream and chooses to learn a Secret about Swamp Thing. The revelation he wasn't the first ever one to walk the earth was HUGE back then, alas as it's a Secret she can't tell Alex, before she can write the dream down it fades. "I cannot remember the morning anymore..." Great stuff.varalys the darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17032083859598898676noreply@blogger.com
