*DC: We’re proud to present the very first issue of Wein and Wrightson’s Swamp Thing, from 1972. Although often overshadowed by Moore and Totleben’s later run on the character, this issue, with the troubled saga of man-monster Alec Holland, transcended the boundaries of DC’s traditional mystery line, establishing a new standard of maturity and sophistication. This attractive copy is VF- at £60, with only fine creases at the spine edge precluding a still higher grade.
