Varsha 666 Posted March 26 Hello! I wanted to get a thread going to discuss timeline options for The Swamp Thing group read that we've discussed a couple of times before. I have a six week long trip coming up in May, so starting the read along mid-June thereabouts works best for me - does that work for the other folks who were interested in joining the group read ? (Tagging everyone who expressed interest so far - @Steve @Dolores Lima @Amazing Worlds and @Crystal Rhew Staley ) This should also hopefully give folks enough time to acquire the swamp thing editions. I've pasted links below to all the options I looked for in USA. These are the ones that I own - there are six volumes in this edition - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JK528CF?binding=paperback&ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk For folks who prefer options outside of Amazon - I found the same set on Barnes and Noble - https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/"Saga+of+the+Swamp+Thing"?Ntk=P_Series_Title&Ns=P_Series_Number&Ntx=mode+matchall They seem to be out of stock on all other platforms that I checked. There's also a box set that appears to be cheaper than acquiring individual volumes - Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/Saga-Swamp-Thing-Box-Set/dp/1779512562/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2VNGZ1M5V03XA&keywords=swamp+thing&qid=1679859686&s=books&sprefix=swamp+thing+%2Cstripbooks%2C148&sr=1-1&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.18ed3cb5-28d5-4975-8bc7-93deae8f9840 Walmart - https://www.walmart.com/ip/Saga-of-the-Swamp-Thing-Box-Set-Mixed-media-product-9781779512567/168580098?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&&adid=22222222227168580098_142373258550_17687600153&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=608862830083&wl4=pla-1680636378125&wl5=9033285&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=168580098&veh=sem&gclid=Cj0KCQjw2v-gBhC1ARIsAOQdKY3EauYAvj02EWyxed7YPiLOX3MiU0LJHkJTtsDIpGBytU5y7t5o_MMaArIoEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds 2 Paromita Mukherjee and Steve reacted to this Quote ► ● Booktube ● Goodreads ● Twitter ● Email Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazing Worlds 387 Posted March 26 I have the Vertigo editions. It might be a reread for me. The time frame works well for me. 2 Paromita Mukherjee and Varsha reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Varsha 666 Posted March 26 Oh, and I forgot to mention, I was thinking we could do one discussion per volume of the 6-volume editions (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JK528CF?binding=paperback&ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tpbk) - either weekly or biweekly starting mid-June 2 Paromita Mukherjee and Steve reacted to this Quote ► ● Booktube ● Goodreads ● Twitter ● Email Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps more late-june than mid-june (thinking 3rd/4th week?), but yes, on-track for June 2 Paromita Mukherjee and Crystal Rhew Staley reacted to this Quote ► ● Booktube ● Goodreads ● Twitter ● Email Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
