Boy, what an issue. This issue is so good it only concretes my thoughts that Swamp Thing is currently the best running book in the DC Universe since the events that unfolded in Flashpoint. In this issue we are introduced to William, half-brother of the girl with white hair who haunts Alec Holland's dreams. Just as Alec is rooted to the green, William is rooted to the black, and the power he shows in this issue can only mean bad things for the future of the human race. The writing in this issue is outstanding, with art by Victor Ibanez and Yanick Paquette superbly complimenting it. I really can't say enough good things about this issue... anyone who has ever been interested in Swamp Thing should jump on the bandwagon and start reading this series right away. Absolutely spectacular.
