	Alan Moore: Swamp Thing: Reunion and Promethea Book IV [2003] Shaking Through.net: Comics: Review
		That Moore conveniently plotted the Swamp Thing's trajectory so that he would intersect with some of the DC Universe's spacebound properties requires some suspension of disbelief, even for comic book readers, and even 16 years after the stories first appeared.
		And in "All Flesh is Grass," Swamp Thing arrives on a planet inhabited by a "vegetable civilization;" his penchant for inhabiting the local flora has disastrous consequences before he encounters the Green Lantern for that sector of space, who helps to realign his bioelectric signature so that he may once again exist on Earth.
		Throughout, Moore gamely hews to Swamp Thing's roots as a horror title, lingering just long enough over Swamp Thing's vengeance over his human foes, or the comeuppance of a Thangarian soldier who tries to kill him in an attempt to preserve the dangerous pact between her world and Rann.
