SWAMP THING #13
by Scott Snyder and Yannick Paquette
Yannick Paquette is back on Swamp Thing! Does that mean this issue is a great kick off to Rotworld, or is it just... rotten?
First off, Scott Snyder gives a just, OK story. Swamp Thing's interactions with many main characters are stale, while only he and Poison Ivy have an enjoyable relationship. The plot doesn't move much, as this issue is mostly meant to get us up to speed on what happened after the Rot won. This makes the issue feel a lot shorter than it's supposed to be.
Thankfully, Yannick Paquette is the real star of the show. He was born to draw the bloody chaos, especially of the Teen Titans fight towards the end. I also like the new design he's given Poison Ivy.
I hope Scott Snyder's gotten something bigger and better up his sleeve for the upcoming Rotworld issues, and Yannick Paquette BETTER keep drawing this series.
STORY: 2/5
ART: 5/5
VERDICT: 3.5/5
