I have to agreed that ANIMAL MAN and SWAMP THING are the two best of the NuDC I've read so far. Both do read like Vertigo titles. More importantly, they read like early Vertigo...like before the actual Vertigo imprint was even created. That was when the books were at their best, still connected to the DC Universe and doing "sophisticated suspense" (for lack of a better term). Once the Vertigo brand got going these books and the others devolved into the pretentious hipster neo-Goth gobbly-%@*@ that makes up the Vertigo line today.  

However, I have to say the new Superman costume looked hideous in SWAMP THING. I'm  starting to fear that only Jim Lee can pull off making that overly busy thing look decent.... 

While not quite as good, I still enjoyed OMAC and plan on following it for awhile. STORMWATCH and STATIC I have zero interest in, sorry.
