About the series
Ram V’s hauntingly lyrical run on The Swamp Thing (2021–2022) reimagines the elemental horror of the Green for a new era at DC. With moody, atmospheric art from Mike Perkins and visceral grit from John McCrea, the series follows a new protagonist—a botanist named Levi Kamei—as he inherits the mantle of the Swamp Thing in a world reshaped by climate change and ancient magic. This 16-issue saga stands out for its deeply ecological, introspective take on the character, weaving Indian mythology and body horror into a slow-burn epic that honors the legacy while forging its own strange, beautiful path.
