Swamp Thing #87 1989

NOTE: Jason Blood only makes a one-panel cameo appearance, although his alter ego Etrigan, is seen throughout the issue.
NOTE: Chronologically, this issue is the final appearance of Camelot. It is destroyed when the Swamp Thing unearths himself from beneath it in order to enter the time rift.
NOTE: This is the final DC Comics issue written by Rick Veitch. Veitch quit DC after a dispute involving an unpublished story slated for Swamp Thing #88. The story involved the Swamp Thing travelling back to the time of Jesus Christ and assuming the role of the cross on which Christ was crucified.
NOTE: The Hal Foster comic strip character, Prince Valiant, makes a cameo appearance in this issue.

Swamp Thing #88 1989

NOTE: The letters column includes a letter by group editor Karen Berger explaining writer/artist Rick Veitch's separation from DC Comics. She expands upon the reason why Veitch quit DC in the letters column in Swamp Thing #89. According to Berger, DC Comics publisher and editor-in-chief Jenette Kahn rejected Veitch's original -----script for this issue, which would have had Swamp Thing arrive in the past during the time of Jesus Christ. It would have revealed how the three wise men were actually assassins and that Jesus was a hedge wizard. The story was rejected out of fear of offending DC's Christian demographic.
NOTE: The golden cup that the Cro-Magnon warrior takes from Rheelai is the Holy Grail of Arthurian and Biblical lore; earliest chronological appearance.
NOTE: The exact era in which this story takes place is unclear, but it reflects the time when Neanderthal man evolved into Cro-Magnon, the oldest modern evolution of man. Scientific excavations suggest that this would have occurred approximately 40,000 years ago.
