I wasn't on board with Moore's version of Swamp Thing, although to his credit it was far more successful commercially. Orchid, unfortunately, can't say the same regardless of how she's been portrayed. <br /><br />I wish I had this issue, but I never was able to acquire it. I'd like to think, though, that the original concept would be the way I'd remember her.hobbyfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08089664500077967952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6263300365798803459.post-45883482018063482422011-01-21T10:06:41.561+00:002011-01-21T10:06:41.561+00:00Sadly I've never read the Neil Gaiman version....Sadly I've never read the Neil Gaiman version.
