This is last collection you need to have Alan Moore's Swamp Thing. The story about sentient technological organism is one of best SF stories I have read, but for me, opening story with Adam Strange was too strange :) since I don't know much of DC mainstream, Therefore only four stars.

After Moore hit his peak with his meditation on solitude, "My Blue Heaven" in issue #56, which concluded the last volume, it goes downhill. The best issues collected in this volume are #59, written by Steve Bissette from a plot by Bissette, Totleben, Moore, and Veitch, and #62, by Veitch.

As usual, Alan Moore delivers. A story that could easily get lost in it's own ambition is smoothly directed towards conclusion, with all the twists and turns that make Alan Moore the master. When you finish this volume you'll just want to turn around and read the entire series over again. Or explore more of Moore.

Alan Moore's entire run on Swamp Thing is amazing. But his `Swamp Thing in Space' stories are my favorites as Moore switches from weird horror to weird sci-fi-horror. As remarkable and acclaimed as Watchmen is, for my money, this is where Moore penned his most ground-breaking stuff.

This book has Swamp Thing in outer space for a fair part of it, as he encounters various other dc figures in his travels, such as those from the planet Rann, and the odd Green Lantern, and even the New Gods.
He does eventually end up back on Earth, and is a little peeved with some of the bad guys.
As The Shadow would say, if Swamp Thing is after you, 'The weeds of crime bear bitter fruit.'
