American Update: If you go down to the swamp today… Swamp Thing #1 (1972) by Berni Wrightson
*DC: Although, a decade later, Alan Moore became for most readers the definitive writer on DC’s muck monster, back in 1972, the first series of Swamp Thing launched at the hands of Berni Wrightson, who is undoubtedly the definitive artist for the character. After debuting in House Of Secrets #92, Swampy appeared in his own series and this first issue is a nice glossy copy with very minor wear at edges and corners; some tick marks at upper staple barely break colour. Staples are tight and firmly attached and page quality a lovely white to off-white. A very faint and tiny 2 cm crease across bottom right corner. A copy I’d hope you’d be very happy to own.
