Batman: Shadow of the Bat #39

SOLOMON GRUNDY - ONE NIGHT IN SLAUGHTER SWAMP

Karin Rykel leads a tour group across Slaughter Swamp State Park in a speedboat. As she details the ecological characteristics of the swampland, Solomon Grundy bursts from the water, toppling their boat.  Later at Gotham City Police Headquarters, a call comes in from a ranger station out near Slaughter Swamp. The ranger details eyewitness accounts of a "white-skinned monster". Batman intercepts the broadcast on the police scanner, and drives to Slaughter Swamp.  That evening, Karin Rykel and several of the surviving children from the tour group set up camp in the woods. Solomon Grundy comes upon them, but Karin manages to keep him calm. In his own slow-witted way, Solomon begins to remember the first time that he ever emerged from the swamp, joining in with a gang of robbers, and fighting the original Green Lantern. He also remembers the time he spent with Green Lantern's daughter, Jade.  Grundy's reverie is broken by the sounds of loud shotgun bursts; two hunters, having found the monster with the lost tourists, open fire on him, blasting several pieces out of his dead, rotting hide. Grundy flies into a rage, and backhands Karin Rykel, killing her. Batman shows up, and distracts Grundy from going after the hunters. He ignites a phosphorus flare, which reacts to the ambient methane of the swamp, causing a large explosion. Running from the flames, Grundy dashes off into the middle of the swamp, and sinks down below the depths.
