The Swamp Thing #3
This third volume of the 2023 Swamp Thing series collects issues #13–18, continuing the saga as the elemental hero faces the machinations of the Parliament of Gears—a mechanical faction seeking to reshape the Green in its own image. Writer Ram V and artist Mike Perkins deepen the horror and ecological themes, exploring the conflict between organic life and industrial progress through a dark, atmospheric narrative.
In "Jericho's Rose Part 1," Jennifer Reece turns to Tefé Holland for help after Swamp Thing—Levi Kamei—vanishes into the Green, leaving behind only whispers and a growing sense of dread. As Harper Pilgrim undergoes a dangerous procedure at the hands of Dr. Woodrue, the line between man and plant blurs, and the Green begins to stir with something older, hungrier, and far from peaceful.
In "Jericho's Rose Part 2," Jennifer and Tefé venture deep into the Green, searching for Levi Kamei as the unnatural pulse of the swamp grows more erratic. Meanwhile, Harper Pilgrim—now host to the Pale Pilgrim—moves closer to activating a machine-based Parliament, while Jack Hawksmoor confronts the first signs of the Parliament of Gears in Detroit, only to be saved by Levi’s unexpected return.
In "Machination," Swamp Thing [Levi Kamei] journeys to Detroit to stand against the Parliament of Gears—a mechanical force awakened by the Pale Pilgrim and bent on overthrowing the Green—while Jack Hawksmoor faces the growing threat head-on. Amidst the chaos, Trinity struggles to hold onto her humanity, her very presence a danger to those around her, even as she grapples with the consequences of her power.
When an alien armada of sentient plant-life arrives in orbit, declaring humanity the planet’s greatest threat, Hal Jordan turns to Swamp Thing [Levi Kamei] for help—only to find the line between savior and destroyer is far thinner than anyone expected. With the Pale Pilgrim watching from the shadows and the Parliament of Gears whispering secrets in the dark, Levi must navigate a crisis where the very life force of Earth may be the only thing standing between salvation and annihilation.
In "Armageddon Part 1," Swamp Thing [Levi Kamei] and Hedera [Jacob Kamei] unite their wills and the power of a Green Lantern construct to face the relentless Parliament of Gears, while Trinity watches, grappling with her place in the unfolding conflict. The line between man and nature blurs as ancient forces collide in a battle that could reshape the world—or end it.
In "Armageddon Part 2," Swamp Thing and Trinity face off against the enigmatic Parliament of Gears, pleading for mercy as the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. With the Pale Pilgrim closing in and ancient forces converging, the line between protector and destroyer blurs in a tense showdown that tests every allegiance.
