“

I guard the Green, the plant life of Earth.

”

Swamp Thing is a plant elemental and protector of the Earth. He is a playable character in Injustice 2 and a featured character in the Year Three comic series.

Biography

The living elemental, Swamp Thing is the protector of all plant life, what he refers to as “the Green.” As the violent affairs of humanity threaten to impact flora worldwide, Swamp Thing prepares his return to the fray to defend “the Green” from destruction.

Powers and Abilities

Being the Avatar of the Green, Swamp Thing has complete control over plant life that surrounds him. He is a user of chlorokinesis, as such he is able to affect plant growth, and make all types of plant life do his bidding. His body is composed of stem cells that are plant-based, which allows him to morph his body into any living type of plant; growing wooden branches, vines, and logs out of his framework. He also has the ability to enlarge himself and his limbs exponentially, making himself gargantuan-sized.

However, being connected to all plant life on Earth, Swamp thing is also effectively immortal, any amount of plant life on the planet serves as a vessel for Swamp Thing's conscience. Swamp Thing's strength level is directly connected to plant life and Earth, to which he is able to contain that strength within his body. As such, he can lift large weights of mass much heavier than his original body weight. He also has the use of his wings, consisting of plant material, which gives him the ability of flight. Swamp Thing, however, does have weaknesses to fire and to poison, as he is an Avatar of the Green.

Super Move

• Green Kingdom - Swamp Thing sinks his arms to the ground, only for them to resurface underneath the opponent, pulling them below the surface. The opponent then bounces off the ground, to which then enlarged hands of Swamp Thing emerge, pummelling the opponent into the stone walls. The hands then grab the opponent, then spread the opponent's back across the pointy rock, possibly breaking it. A gigantic hand then emerges from the bottom to lift the opponent back up to the surface, then slams them back down to the ground.

Ending

Many throughout history have underestimated the Green. In this way, Brainiac was no different than Superman or Batman. They all thought they could improve upon nature. They all were wrong. Earth belonged to the Green for eons before animals evolved. Now, the trees and plants will remind these animals upon whose planet they reside. When the next crisis comes, nature will protect itself. I stand with the Green, and the Green alone.
