The legend of Swamp Thing continues here! He was an elemental embodiment of the world’s plants-the spirit of all her marshes, bogs and fens. He had a wonderful daughter and a loving wife, and the power and beauty of nature filled his life. He was the Swamp Thing. He was a god. He was happy. And then he woke up. Without warning, Doctor Alec Holland finds himself thousands of miles from the Louisiana swamp that he thought was his home. He has a life he doesn’t remember and a human body he thought he had lost forever. His time as the Swamp Thing is nothing but a disappearing dream, a hallucination, a bad trip. But the monster rampaging through the bayou he left behind is all too real. So is the beautiful woman who loved him, the danger she now faces and the terrible vengeance of the power he once served-the gods of field and forest known as the Parliament of Trees.

Swamp Thing alone stands to defend his community from the growing menace of an evil corporation ready to turn the earth to barren soil if it helps their bottom line. But Sunderland’s reach stretches further than even the Swamp Thing can grasp…their plans for destruction will affect not just the swamps he calls home, but the entire planet! And Swamp Thing is not the only strange spirit alive in the bayou. When a fifolet-a ghost light, a will o’ the wisp-leads him to strangers who need his help, Swamp Thing must discover what this restless ghost’s true purpose might be…if he can survive long enough to find out.

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.
