Summary:
Alan Moore, then a little-known writer, was asked by DC to do his first major American work: to take over the scripting chores on their horror title Saga of the Swamp Thing. Moore's storylines radically reinvented not only the main character, but also the US comic industry's whole approach to storytelling. Many have argued that the direction and approach of a large number of today's comics -- especially DC's Vertigo line -- can be traced back to Moore's run on Swamp Thing.
