Swamp Thing by Scott Snyder: The Deluxe Edition #[nn]
In "Raise Dem Bones," Scott Snyder and Yanick Paquette deliver a haunting, atmospheric chapter in the Swamp Thing saga, where Alec Holland stands at a breaking point—pleading with the ailing Parliament of Trees to restore him, even as Abby’s transformation into the Rot’s new avatar unfolds. With the forest’s magic faltering, Alec must sacrifice a piece of his own bio-restorative formula to reignite their power, setting a desperate, pivotal course. The lush, haunting art by Paquette and Nathan Fairbairn’s evocative colors deepen the story’s eerie, organic pulse, all framed by Paquette’s striking cover.
