Swamp Thing #17

I know I'm way behind in my reading, but Swamp Thing #17 was horrible! The whole thing felt very phoned-in, from the stiff, clichéd writing to the mediocre art that's horribly mismatched with the story and makes the issue look like a low-rent kids’ comic. I expect better from you, Scott Snyder (and Jeff Lemire if I'm to accept the credits as-is). And, even though I don't expect better from you, DC, if you couldn't manage Yanick Paquette for the interiors, couldn't you get someone who'd match the feel of the book? This is not what the conclusion of, more-or-less, a 34-issue story should be. (Even though it feels like the real conclusions are in issues #18 of the two books.)

Very disappointed, guys. Very disappointed.
