Swamp Thing on dcu.com

Post by BridgeConsoleMasher »

I was just about ready to stop giving Dcuniverse.com my hard earned money every month, but then I saw on Facebook that this show incorporates some legit horror into its first episode, so god dammit, here we go again with another show.


Following the surprise hit, Doom Patrol, ladies and lentil men, I bring you Swamp Thing:

So Swamp Thing gets his own series. That's good news considering how criminally understated and unknown he is. And in 2 animated DC movies that he is in he didn't really do much in either of those.

I remember when I was about 4 years old, seeing a movie of his on TV (or a show). Never knew it was a DC property until later.

I noticed that he was in two DCU Animated Original Movies, back to back I believe (separate continuities); both of which had short and odd appearances by him that ended up the same more or less.

Spotted Tim Russ in the credits. I'm pretty sure he had a 10 second part as a head doctor.

Really like the feel of the movie. Some parts with the characters seemed kinda soggy and I'm not sure if it's directing or writing, but I'm looking forward to the 10 part season.
