A BIRTHDAY SALUTE…

Rick Veitch is back in action with Swamp Thing 1989, a four-issue miniseries that properly caps off his aborted run from the 1980s.

Veitch is also turning 75 — he was born May 7, 1951 — so we’re saluting him with 13 COVERS starring the muck monster. (Actually, it’s 13 + 1, because he did 10 for the original 1980s series and we’re including all four from the mini.)

Rad.
