Swamp Thing #8

It seems the avatars have to be torn down before they can rise back up again.  Animal was demolished in the last issue and Alec Holland had to die before he could be Swamp Thing again.  This Swamp Thing seems to be much more in control and less of a monster.  He can talk and think, although there seems to be a primal side to him that he has to keep constrained.

Things I liked: the dialogue this issue was superb.  Each page was a treat to read and the end came too quickly.

Things I didn't like: Swamp Thing with wings.  It's just not very plant-like.  And I get that he can change his body to whatever, but I don't like the wings.
