SWAMP THING: HEALING THE BREACH continues the collection of Vertigos newest incarnation of the Avatar of the Green. With the consciousness of Alec Holland still separated from its former host and scattered throughout the world, the Swamp Thing must face a new threat which is manifesting itself inside a growing dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico and contend with the gradual reassembly of the Holland mind and the pain of reintegration that its completion promises.
