Swamp Thing Whoops Ass In Injustice 2

One of Wes Craven’s early classics was the 1982 DC Comics adaptation Swamp Thing, which was followed by a sequel in 1989 and a live-action TV series from 1990-93 and an animated series in ’91. He also showed up in this year’s Justice League Dark, so needless to say he’s one of the most popular monsters in the DC Universe.
As you’d expect from a scientist-turned hulking green plant monster, Swamp Thing is a pretty formidable foe on the battlefield, as you can see in his gameplay videos from Injustice 2. Directed by Mortal Kombat’s Ed Boon, you’ll be able to unleash Swamp Thing against the likes of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Bane, Catwoman and more on when the game launches on May 16.
BTW, of you though that Swamp Thing and Marvel’s Man-Thing seemed remarkably similar, it might have something to do with the fact that Swamp Thing co-creator Len Wein and Man-Thing co-creator Gerry Conway were roommates for a time. I don’t want to accuse anyone of copying anyone, but go figure.
