(Content warning: References to suicide and hate crime)
What better way to round out the spook-tacular month of October than with a werewolf, ghosts, zombies, a serial killer and underwater vampires? All that and the debut of everyone’s favorite Sting impersonator in the first half of Alan Moore’s ambitious American Gothic storyline from The Saga of The Swamp Thing (issues 37-42 and 44-45), published by DC Comics!
Everyone’s favorite muck monster travels across the U.S. encountering an unsettling series of supernatural horrors. But are they all part of a larger, more sinister design? Can Swamp Thing trust his new colleague, the manipulative John Constantine? And can these terrifying tales scare their way into that American Horror Story known as ... The Comics Canon?
In This Episode:
- Reckoning with Moore’s feelings about his earlier works
- A dream team of horror-comic artists
- Swamp Thing #56: My Blue Heaven
- Winchester ’73
- The Rampaging Hulk
- Ice Cream Man Vols. 1 and 2
Join us in two weeks as we commemorate “Noirvember” with a look at Paul Karasik and David Mazzuccheli’s adaptation of Paul Auster’s City of Glass!
