Synopsis "Swamp Thing: Green Hell "

The only way to defeat a monster is to resurrect an old one! Can Swamp Thing save what's left of existence? The Earth is all but done. The last remnants of humanity cling to a mountaintop island lost in endless floodwater. The Parliaments of the Green, the Red, and the Rot all agree: it's time to wipe the slate clean and start the cycle of life over again. And to do so, they've united their powers to summon an avatar-one of the most horrific monsters to ever stalk the surface of this forsaken planet. Against a creature like that, there can be no fighting back...unless you have a soldier who understands the enemy. Someone who has used its tactics before. Someone like Alec Holland. Of course, it would help if Alec Holland hadn't been dead for decades... Jeff Lemire--the author of the smash hits Joker: Killer Smile and The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage, along with the graphic novel that inspired the television sensation Sweet Tooth--returns to Black Label with one of the greatest artists in modern DC history, Doug Mahnke, in tow! Together they'll unleash a gory, gruesome eco-terror tale, where the fate of humanity rests in the hands of someone who isn't human at all! Collects Swamp Thing: Green Hell #1-3.

Douglas Dale Mahnke descubrió el apasionante mundo de los cómics con apenas cinco años, cuando le regalaron una pila de tebeos de Spiderman. Desde entonces, su interés por la historieta no hizo sino aumentar, mejorando su técnica asistiendo a clases particulares de dibujo y practicando sin cesar. La ansiada oportunidad le llegó a los 24 años, cuando Dark Horse Comics le encomendó el apartado gráfico de Homicide, historia de género negro escrita por John Arcudi. El entendimiento entre ambos fue inmediato, repitiendo experiencia en diferentes cómics de La Máscara y en su serie de creación propia Major Bummber.

Ya asentado en la industria, no tardó en convertirse en uno de los dibujantes de referencia de DC Comics, formando equipo creativo con guionistas de la talla de Joe Kelly, Judd Winick, Chuck Dixon, Peter J. Tomasi o Ed Brubaker. Así, tuvo ocasión de colaborar en títulos como Superman: The Man of Steel, Liga de la Justicia de América: Élites, Batman, Black Adam: La edad oscura y Batman: El hombre que ríe.

Pero en su bibliografía ocupan un lugar muy destacado las colaboraciones con dos afamados guionistas: Geoff Johns con quien coincidió en Green Lantern; y Grant Morrison, quien le ofreció participar en Crisis Final, Siete Soldados de la Victoria y El Multiverso: Ultra Comics. Desde noviembre de 2014 ejerce como dibujante de Superman/Wonder Woman, colección en la que se ha reencontrado con Peter J. Tomasi.

La única colaboración de Doug Mahnke con Marvel hasta el momento se resume en los lápices de Silver Sable and the Wild Pack vol.1 #26.
