As sources tell reliable media site Variety, Mangold approached Gunn and Safran with a Swamp Thing idea and has since been in talks about the director’s post. He already shows with his Twitter message that he is a connoisseur of the matter. The picture he published is from the first Swamp Thing comic series, as can be seen from the signature. It was edited from 1971 by Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson.
