Agh! The Swamp Thingโฆ.from Planet Rann! McFarlane Toys announced today that a new Swamp Thing Mega Figure would release on Halloween, and this time it would be the humongous, red, cactus-like creature from the Planet Rann! Swamp Thing #57 (February 1987) introduces the terrifying monster when hero Adam Strange attempts to return to Planet Rann and instead smashes head on into the Swamp Thing! Now mutated to be red and cacti-like, itโs up to Adam to take him down.ย
The McFarlane Mega figure line is usually taller than the regular line, some coming in at 9-inches. Weโll have to wait and see what the exact measurements are, but this Swamp Thing is destined to be one of the larger McFarlane collectibles. Pre-orders for the figure are expected to go live starting at 9am PT / 12pm ET tomorrow, October 31st.. You can find it at Entertainment Earth here after the launch time. It should also be available on Amazon. Direct links be added when the figure goes live.

Swamp Thing continues to grow with new stories and new team ups in the DC Universe, in the comics and on camera. While we wait to hear whatโs going on with James Mangoldโs Swamp Thing movie, weโll be looking at the comics to see what heโs up to. Just today DC released a special Halloween one-shot, a collaboration between two plant-loversโฆ Swamp Thing and Poison Ivy! The new comic, Poison Ivy/Swamp Thing: Feral Trees #1, gets into how its two characters protect the green and what their role is in the Parliament of Trees.ย
Comicbookโs own Matthew Aguilar reviewed the comic and gave it a 4.5, stating it โkeeps you hooked on the greater mystery and emotionally invested in the people in the center of it all the way through, and itโs an adventure you wonโt want to miss.โ So, there you have it. This is definitely a team-up I need to read.
