THE SAGA OF THE SWAMP THING LIVES ON! Dr. Alec Holland was a brilliant scientist who was developing a bio-restorative formula that would rejuvenate plant life. When he died, he was reborn as the Swamp Thing, the avatar of the Green. As champion and protector of all plants on the planet, Swamp Thing has access to untold power. But such power also attracts danger. In this daring new reinterpretation, Swamp Thing is put to the ultimate test when he faces several challenges that push the limits of his abilities. There’s the Rot, the kingdom of death and decay that is hell-bent on destroying all life on Earth. Anton Arcane, his archnemesis, has also returned from the grave yet again. When another contender for the role of avatar of the Green steps forth, the creature who was once Alec Holland is forced to defend the mantle that he has grudgingly learned to accept. And just when you thought that the Green had its hands full with the Red and the Rot, yet another kingdom, the Machines, declares war. Take a journey into the deepest depths of the bayou in Swamp Thing: The New 52 Omnibus. This comprehensive volume contains every Swamp Thing issue from the New 52 era written and illustrated by SCOTT SNYDER (Dark Nights: Death Metal), JEFF LEMIRE (Animal Man), CHARLES SOULE (Red Lanterns), YANICK PAQUETTE (Batman Incorporated), JESUS SAIZ (Birds of Prey), and more.

"He has become a modern legend, this mysterious creature of the Louisiana bayou. Feared as a monster, hailed as a god, by turns wonderfully benevolent and pitiless in his wrath, the Swamp Thing has carved his unique niche in the American Landscape. Writer Len Wein and legendary horror artist Bernie Wrightson, the original creators of the most complex creature in comics, brought the 'Swamp Thing' to life in an 8-page story from House of secrets #92. Now that classic story, plus the first ten issues of SWAMP THING Volume One, are reprinted in a new edition of Swamp thing - Dark genesis. In 'Dark genesis', learn the astonishing secret of Swamp Thing's "birth"; share the forbidden passions of Anton Arcane and the measureless sorrow of the Patchwork Man; shiver to the timeless horror of the witch named Rebecca Ravenwind and of a tortured Scottish werewolf. These eleven stories are not merely acknowledged classics of the comics field; they are an incredible reading experience, and the ideal introduction to the many-faceted creature known as Swamp Thing"--googlebooks.com.

The legendary Swamp Thing has resurfaced for a new age-just as a new force threatens to rot away all life on Earth! Since the dawn of time, the planet’s safety has depended on maintaining a balance of three great powers: THE GREEN, the force that unites all plant life; THE RED, the force that unites all animal life; and THE ROT, the force of death. Each generation, the Green selects an avatar to serve as its protector-the Swamp Thing. But Doctor Alec Holland, the Green’s newest champion, is no longer interested in the role. The Rot’s own avatar is growing stronger, and servants of decay gain more territory every day. If Alec doesn’t return to his duties soon, there might not be any Green left to protect. The superstar team of #1 New York Times best-selling writer Scott Snyder (BATMAN, AMERICAN VAMPIRE) and artist Yanick Paquette (BATMAN, INC.), reworks one of comics’ greatest characters for a new age, with support from wonderful talents Jeff Lemire, Marco Rudy, Becky Cloonan, Francesco Francavilla, Steve Pugh and more. Collects SWAMP THING #0-18, ANIMAL MAN #12, 17 and SWAMP THING ANNUAL #1, as well as never-before-seen sketches and an introduction by SWAMP THING co-creator Len Wein.

This book chronicles the American horror film genre in its development of remakes from the 1930s into the 21st century. Gus Van Sant's 1998 remake of Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960) is investigated as the watershed moment when the genre opened its doors to the possibility that any horror movie--classic, modern, B-movie, and more--might be remade for contemporary audiences. Staple horror franchises--Halloween (1978), Friday the 13th (1980), and A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)--are highlighted along with their remake counterparts in order to illustrate how the genre has embraced a phenomenon of remake productions and what the future of horror holds for American cinema. More than 25 original films, their remakes, and the movies they influenced are presented in detailed discussions throughout the text.
