Swamp Thing #2

Swamp Thing looms large and menacing on Yanick Paquette's striking cover for this 2013 collection, the massive green figure rendered in rich earthy tones against a dramatic vertical composition that feels both ancient and alive. Family Tree gathers Scott Snyder's writing alongside interior art from Paquette and Marco Rudy, with colors by Nathan Fairbairn and Val Staples lending the whole thing a lush, organic atmosphere. A great entry point into one of DC's most atmospheric ongoing series of that era.
