Description

Alan Moore's first issue writing his legendary run on Swamp Thing (also his first work in the U.S.)

"But I guess there were just...too many ants."

Dan Day's rough pencils met a publishing deadline crunch, saving the title from cancellation.
John Totleben completely reworked all the Swamp Thing faces, figures and some of the panel compositions of this issue.
Alan Moore wrapped up all of Marty Pasko's "Loose Ends" & the rest is history!
