“The Patchwork Man”

DC Special Series #14 collects Books 3 and 4 of the original Swamp Thing saga by Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson, including "The Patchwork Man" — a genuinely thrilling package for sixty cents in 1978. Wrightson's cover pulls no punches: a hulking, stitched-together figure lunges through a fiery, smoke-filled backdrop, fist raised and expression fierce, radiating the same gothic menace that made this creative team's run so memorable. If you want Wein and Wrightson doing what they do best — moody atmosphere, creature design that genuinely unsettles — this is a great place to find it.
