But nooooo....

That's what I thought! Maybe they want to stick to TBPs to go along w/the Alan Moore collections.

I also have a suspicion that DC is reluctant to mix the Vertigo lines and DC Universe lines together—even though Swamp Thing started as a DCU book. One of things that amazed me about the trade is how the stories that I had read when I was in fourth grade suddenly became “suggested for mature readers”. I found this extremely silly.

Wein’s last two issues should be reprinted since they do essentially conclude Matt Cable’s quest for Alec Holland’s killer. However, I don’t remember much of what was in the issues after that which is probably not a good sign…
