The Swamp Thing #10 p.20 & 21 - The Pale Wanderer Returns! SplashHoly Crap! He's baaaaaaaaack! A KILLER Double Page Splash ! YES! YES! YES! I've been desperately hoping, when Swamp Thing turned him into a Banyan tree back in issue #2, that The Pale Wanderer wasn't dead! Now, with Woodrue echoing some of the things that the Wanderer was attempting to teach Levi, such as "Ideas cannot die.", and also mentioning avatars, I've got a feeling that something big is about to happen with this character!

swinging on an old tire swing they hung from a tree

as she conducts surveillance on Lois and Renee

So before purchasing

a holographic image of Lex Luthor suddenly appears and reveals that when he previously offered him a new and better body and told him he needed his help

Metallo brutally murders Tony

Lois excuses herself

Such a gorgeous page
