With the secrets of his past revealed, Levi returns home despairing in the knowledge that his brother Jacob, now the villain Hedera, is the cause of the contagion within the green. But the brothers opposed are only a symptom of a greater rift within the Green itself. Does the world care for its human denizens or are they an infection to be purged?

Comme annoncé par Ram V, Swamp Thing aura bien une suite, une « seconde saison » composée de 6 épisodes. Pas de relance par contre, le titre se poursuivra au #11 après une pause de 3 mois.

J’ai l’impression que la première saison devait être produite en six épisodes aussi sauf qu’elle est rallongée d’un similicrossover avec l’Escadron Suicide.

Il est pas mal le nouveau porteur. Ca fera une bonne histoire à compiler.

As the battle between Levi and Jacob comes to a head, the future of the Green—and so of all living things—is embroiled in existential conflict. And there are those who have learned to look for windows of opportunity in conflict. The true nature of Prescot’s machinations will become apparent even as their actions will put into question the very nature of the world we live in.

By popular demand, the Swamp Thing has returned and is extending his roots into Season Two! The climactic battle between Levi and his brother Jacob led to events that left the Swamp Thing broken up-literally. Now, with Levi fractured and on the edge of oblivion, an unlikely ally has entered the fray to piece him back together again: Tefé Holland, daughter of the original Swamp Thing.

Le lancement de cette nouvelle saison est très réussie. Je la vois même meilleur avec un Ram V qui retisse une histoire un peu déconnectée du DCU (à part le crossover avec la Suicide Squad) mettant en scène ce nouveau porteur pris entre affaires familiales, industrielles et amoureuses. Le tout dans un écrin de verdure à deux pas de l’Inde. :wink:

RV maîtrise l’ambiance simple et romantique du titre avec le luxe de ramener la fille d’Alec Holland. :wink: Le duo avec Perkins fonctionne à merveille. Le titre dégage une bonne énergie en puisant dans toutes ces thématiques.

La lecture en TPB sera meilleure, je pense.

Un très beau titre.

Tefé Holland and Jennifer Reece dive into the Green to recover Levi, but soon find that the Swamp Thing may not want to return. Meanwhile, Dr. Woodrue’s strange procedure with the remains of the Pale Wanderer has resulted in unintended consequences, and the world itself may never be the same because of it.

La vérité de ce run se joue là. La deuxième partie se veut malheureusement très (trop) brouillonne.

Je croise les doigts.
