Saga of the Swamp Thing, Book 5

The award-winning run by Alan Moore reaches a fever pitch as the Swamp Thing takes on the finest—and foulest—of Gotham City!

Continuing the prestige hardcover collection of master comics writer Alan Moore’s landmark work, this fifth volume begins as Swamp Thing returns from his harrowing sojourn to hell. His homecoming is cut short when he learns that Abigail Arcane is being persecuted for their “unnatural relations.” When she flees to Gotham City to escape the authorities, the creature of the Green follows, putting him on a direct collision course with the Dark Knight.

Witness one of the most iconic confrontations in comic history as Swamp Thing runs afoul of Batman, Lex Luthor, and the Gotham City Police Department. As the city becomes a jungle overnight, the boundaries between hero and monster blur.
