Synopsis:
As Swamp Thing's consciousness crosses the void of space, he encounters a sentient planetoid. He creates a body for himself from the planet's material. The planet creature has been alone in space for a long time and seeks to trap Swamp Thing. He escapes, but the planet creates a chronofracture, which causes time to replay itself. It then succeeds in capturing Swamp Thing. The planet creature then uses the Swamp Thing to procreate before allowing him to proceed on his journey.
