Swamp Thing: Protector of the Green #[nn]

In "Desert Five O'Clock," Alec Holland and Abigail Arcane race to stop William Arcane from carrying out a violent act at a remote diner, arriving too late to prevent tragedy. As the weight of the Green presses upon him, Alec is haunted by a vision of the Parliament of Trees, who urge him to embrace his role as protector while warning of a danger unlike any he’s faced before.

In "The Black Queen," Abby Arcane finds herself consumed by the Rot as the Parliament of Trees faces a dire assault, forcing Alec Holland to confront his destiny and embrace the role of Swamp Thing—though with time running out, it’s unclear if his transformation can save them in time.

In "null," Alec Holland faces a desperate choice as Abigail Arcane is consumed by the Rot and poised to become its new avatar. With the Parliament of Trees struggling to act, Alec must offer a piece of his own bio-restorative formula to restore his connection to the Green—risking everything to save her, and himself.
