Roots of the Swamp Thing #3

Part 3 of 5 in this 1986 DC reprint series, Roots of the Swamp Thing #3 showcases a dramatic Bernie Wrightson cover that captures the creature at his most formidable — a massive, roaring Swamp Thing rears up against a fiery orange sky as an angry mob closes in, one man wielding an axe while a dark-haired woman looks on from beside a bare, twisted tree. Wrightson's linework crackles with tension, and with Len Wein's story "The Last of the Ravenwind Witches!" promised inside, this is a compelling package from the original creative team behind one of comics' most enduring characters.
