Morrison did it too well ... as people liked the character enough that it continued to this day. Lemire's treatment is a horror/sci-fi hybrid.The main SWAMP THING comparison to the Moore era is Paquette's art evokes the Bissette/Totleben/Veitch/Yeates period. The story uses Moore characters (Abigail, Parliament), but is hardly derivative of Moore so far.
