Swamp Thing, a fictional character, is a plant elemental in the DC Comics Universe originally created by Len Wein and Berni Wrightson. He first appeared in House of Secrets #92 (July 1971) in a stand-alone horror story set in the early 20th century (plotted by Wein and drawn by Wrightson). The Swamp Thing was then reprised in his own series, set in the contemporary world and in the general DC continuity. The character is a humanoid mass of vegetable matter who fights to protect his swamp home, the environment in general, and humanity from various supernatural or terrorist threats.

The character found perhaps his greatest popularity during the 1980s and early '90s. Outside of an extensive comic book history, the Swamp Thing property has inspired two theatrical films, a live-action television series, and a five-part animated series among other media.

A. Bugs Bunny and the Road Runner Show, Superman, Fantastic Four, Huckleberry Hound, Quicksdraw McGraw, SpeedRacer, Ultra Man, The Jetsons, and The Flintstones. All these cartoons, were innocent and didn't try to push an agenda, the jokes were funny, and the drawings of the characters were smooth lined and easy to watch.

Ladies: Would you bathe like Asrienne Barbeau did in Swamp Thing ?
Q. The video and DVDwasn't purchased by the majority of buyers because of it being science fiction or fantasy, but rather the bayou bathing scene by the busty nude Ms. Barbeau. No doubt the salary she garnered was worth every mosquito bite or brush with poison sumac.
