Publisher’s description

Still coming to terms with the truth behind his existence, Swamp Thing explores a realm called the Green--a plane of connectivity between all living things on Earth. Meanwhile, the Floronic Man taps into the Green and uses the immense power for murder. Will Swamp Thing wake in time to stop him?
