Swamp Thing: The Animated Series
Based on the DC Comics series, this is the story of a brilliant botanist, Dr. Alec Holland, who invents an amazing plant-growth formula to end world hunger. Unfortunately, when evil genius Anton Arcane and his Un-Men henchcreatures try to steal the formula, they blow up his lab and send Alec Holland, covered with flaming formula, fleeing into the swamp. There, deep in the primeval muck, the formula begins to work, combining Holland's body and genius intellect with the swamp life, creating Earth's only hope . . . SWAMP THING!

I heard this before Wild Thing and used to sing the lyrics to Swamp Thing to it and thinking it wasn't as good as "The Original Swamp Thing One".
This should've been the theme song for the new show.

Ah, the 90s. Such a magical time for cartoons.
It blows my mind this actually exists, they really just made a Wild Thing parody their theme song lol
Whenever I buy a Swamp Thing comic, I will pretty much always sing a line or two from this song.

This is greatest theme song EVAH!
Of all the other DC Comic superheroes, I actually like Swamp Thing for his more down-to-Earth design and badass misanthropy.
This takes me back, I had the swamp thing toy in the 90's that you can dip in water and it changes colors
holy crap i vaguely remembered this when i was a kid, its so similar to toxic crusaders.
if they dont use this for the new series i will cry
When I’m elected President this will be played at my inauguration.
I had all the toys for this!
Amazing theme and enjoy how hard it rocks. The animation and song compliment each other perfectly to give us this wicked intro that will always be a classic.
What in the actual fuck
THIS IS THE BEST OPENING THEME IN CARTOON HISTORY *sarcasm* *sarcasm*
My jaw dropped when I saw this.
Swamp Thing is my favorite anime
The sound effect used at 0:25 is fucking hilarious.
I grew up in the 90s and I don't remember this. Where the heck was I??
They actually make a small reference to this opening theme on Injustice 2's story mode.
Swamp Thing, you make my heart sing
love that biting sound bit :-) loved this cartoon!
LOL the tentacle scene. 00:16
Omg childhood memories from that program and xmen cartoon
I feel I'm gonna get sued for listing to this.

Who came here after watching the dc remake ep1
I noticed toward the end of the broadcast syndicated run of the DIC version of G.I. Joe, several/and or many other DIC cartoons used the same background music. One day I was watching three episodes of Swamp Thing "Falling Red Star", and "Legend of the Lost Cavern", and a few episodes of season 2 of the Double Dragon cartoon “Shadow Khan”, “Shadow Claw”, “Virtual Reality Bytes”, “Doom Claw”, “Superhighway Warriors”, “Spirit in the Sword”, and “Ancients Arrive”, and the background music was the same it was on G.I. Joe. As for the instrumental version of the Swamp Thing theme song. I liked it.

Imagine if Constantine was in this.
I don't think you would ever have gotten something like Moore's 'The Anatomy Lession' story in this cartoon or seen a John Constantine cameo, but it's kind of funny that when this cartoon was on the air Rick Vietch was trying to do a Swamp Thing story that had Swampy traveling back through time and ending up as the wooden cross that Christ was crucified on, (it's a true story, I swear) DC Comics stopped that storyline cold.
Better than the entire DCEU!

Superman mentions "beef bourguignon" in one of his intros, in which he encounters another version of himself. It's a reference to the comics, in which Lois Lane cooks him beef bourguignon (with ketchup) and it becomes his favorite meal.
