In some ways, this feels like a reset to status quo, a fitting end to Moore's run. Old Swampy ends the famine on a dying world, fathers children against his will with a clockwork cyborg plant thing, visits a world of sentient plants, bumps into Metron of the New Gods, and finally ends up back on Earth. Whatever happened to that book.Īnyway, this volume is more science fiction and fantasy than the thought provoking horror of the previous volumes. He travels from Rann to Apokalips and all points in between, looking for a way to get back home to Earth and to Abbie Cable.Īlan Moore was stretched very thin at this point, simultaneously working on Watchmen. In the aftermath of the previous book, Swamp Thing finds himself light years away from home. Saga of the Swamp Thing Book 6 collects issues 57-64 of Swamp Thing, Alan Moore's last.

This is because our lead gal and her cohorts are now outside of Ark and looking for some sort of safety.

Nellie Bly is one of those fascinating and delightful Gilded Age personalities-fearless, charming, and unstoppable. I also discovered that the Gilded Age was a golden age for independent, ambitious, boundary breaking real life heroines. But in researching the time period I discovered that the best stories weren’t just uptown in Fifth Avenue mansions-they were everywhere. Astor’s ballroom and dollar Princesses, which felt like an updated version of the Regency Era. My obsession with the Gilded Age began with romance novels-I wanted to set a series in old New York in the world of Mrs. In short, it’s an era that wants to be written about. And there were many, many larger than life personalities.

The Gilded Age is famous for high society rivalries, for robber barons, suffragists and a clash of fortunes and tremendous poverty, all within the confines of one city. To the general public, Nero was a welcomed change & the early part of Nero's reign was considered by many to be a mini-golden age. When his friends congratulated him upon hearing of the birth of his son, Nero's father said that anything born to Agrippina and him would be unlikeable and a disaster. He once deliberately ran over a young boy with his chariot as he drove through a local village. His father, Gnaeus Domitius, who died when Nero was three, was extremely violent in his own right and was described by his contemporaries as "a despicable character". Nero was born Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus in 37 CE, but he was renamed Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus when his mother, Agrippina, married Emperor Claudius in 49 CE. According to the 1st-2nd century historian Suetonius in his The Twelve Caesars, upon hearing of the emperor's death by suicide, "…citizens ran through the streets wearing caps of liberty as though they were freed slaves." Early Life His lavish parties combined with the burning of Rome continued the economic chaos that had plagued the Roman citizenry since the days of Tiberius (r. He was self-indulgent, cruel, and violent as well as a cross-dressing exhibitionist. The last of the Julio-Claudian emperors to rule the Roman Empire, his 14-year reign represents everything decadent about that period in Roman history.
