Elsa Bloodstone & Ulysses Bloodstone – Definitive Collecting Guide and Reading Order

You cannot see this page because it is currently exclusive to Patreon supporters.

Thank you for being a reader and supporter of Crushing Krisis!

This site would have never grown past the original guides to X-Men without readers like you, and I will never forget that!

It not only takes (a lot of) time to produce hundreds of pages of comics content, but also money for hosting, registration, and software. The financial support from Patreon pledges has kept this site running when I would otherwise have had to suspend it or refocus my spare time on freelance work.

I completely understand if you cannot afford to support CK or are not interested in doing so. The core of my coverage of the X-Men and the Marvel Universe is available to all readers for free – absolutely nothing has changed about that. I still appreciate your support and you are always welcome to ask me questions in comments here or on Twitter or YouTube!

As a thank you to readers who support Crushing Krisis on Patreon, I provide early access to new guides like this one. Patrons generally chip in $1-2 a month to help cover the costs of hosting CK and to make awesome new content like this possible.

I literally could not have launched the DC section of Crushing Comics without the support of Patrons, nor would I have worked on Star Wars or Conan, nor would I have the time to launch a YouTube channel or revise the X-Men Reading Order.

That said, all readers benefit from the support of Patrons – because all of those exclusive guides eventually become regular free content for every reader.

New For Patrons: The Definitive Guides to Swamp Thing and DC’s Houses & Horrors

by Leave a Comment

Today’s new guides for Patrons of Crushing Krisis fill in another of the six original pillars of Vertigo Comics, plus add some context to the foundations of the Sandman Universe…

Swamp Thing – The Definitive Reading Order and Collecting Guide

+

The Houses & Horrors of DC:
House of Mystery, House of Secrets, Horror Anthologies, and more!

Working on these guides emphasized the counter-intuitive fact that some well-known DC characters have appeared in far fewer comics than their lesser-known Marvel counter-parts.

Swamp Thing has a pretty obvious Marvel analog in Man-Thing, who not only shares a similar design and concept, but a creator in Len Wein.

Swamp Thing is the better-known character of the two by an order of magnitude, partially due to his pair of campy 1980s horror flicks. I assumed he would have a rich history of appearances throughout the DC Universe, especially since Man-Thing appears all over the place as a silent team member, a teleportation gimmick, and a random guest-star.

That’s just not the case. [Read more…] about New For Patrons: The Definitive Guides to Swamp Thing and DC’s Houses & Horrors
