Synopsis:
Matt Cable and Abby take a flight to the Caribbean in search of Bolt. The plane is hijacked. Swamp Thing, who was hidden in the cargo hold, attempts to stop the hijacker and is accidentally thrown out of the plane. He washes up on the island of Kala Pago. The island was recently taken over by soldiers. Laganna, the only remaining native, tries to recruit Swamp Thing to take back the island.

Despite Swamp Thing's reluctance to help, he is drawn into the conflict. Laganna has no army of her own. She only has the help of Adam Rook, a mercenary. What she does have is a mystic talisman which raises an army of the dead. Swamp Thing is disturbed by the zombie army, so he destroys the talisman. Rook and Laganna both refuse to give up the fight, and it leads to their deaths. With the conflict over, Swamp Thing retreats to the jungle.
