Doctor Anton Arcane was an evil scientist who wanted Doctor Alec Holland's plant growth formula for himself and, when he was refused, had his goons destroy the lab.

However, the accident caused Holland to transform into the man-plant mutant known as Swamp Thing. Now Arcane seeks to find and use Swamp Thing for his experiments; to that end, he uses the Geno-fluid of his transducer chamber to turn himself and his Un-Men into monstrous creatures -- he himself becoming an arachnid monster.
