In this episode of Around Comics, Sal and Chris are joined by special guest Zack Kruse to discuss Alan Moore's Swamp Thing #34.
This issue is widely regarded as a masterpiece of horror comics and a turning point for the Swamp Thing series, as Moore took over writing duties and injected a new level of depth and sophistication into the character's mythology.
The panel delves into the themes of mortality, transformation, and ecological consciousness that run through the issue, as well as the influence of classic horror literature and the work of Ditko and other comics pioneers on Moore's writing.
Tune in for a fascinating conversation about one of the greatest comics of all time, with insights from a true comics scholar and historian.
