This collection kicks off the 2022 Swamp Thing series by Ram V and Mike Perkins, following Levi Kamei as a new avatar of the Green. After a tragedy in his past, Levi is drawn into a world of elemental conflict, forced to embrace a monstrous form he never wanted. The volume sets a somber, horror-tinged tone as it redefines the character for a new era while honoring the legacy of the original Swamp Thing.
In "Becoming Part 1," Ram V and Mike Perkins launch a haunting new chapter for The Swamp Thing, diving into the fractured psyche of Levi as he battles terrifying visions of the Pale Wanderer in a desert mirage. With Mike Spicer’s evocative colors and Aditya Bidikar’s precise lettering, the issue unfolds as a visceral exploration of identity and transformation, anchored by Levi’s fragile connection to Jennifer as he learns to confront the Green’s pull. The cover by Mike Perkins captures the eerie stillness of a man caught between worlds.
