History

The Sunderland Corporation

At Sunderland Corporation Headquarters, Constance Sunderland receives a surprise visit from her mother Bubbles. Mrs. Sunderland is surprised to discover that her once-dead husband, General Carlton Sunderland, seems to be alive and well. Constance leaves her mother alone with the General, and Bubbles is quick to accuse the General of being an impostor, noting that he is behaving as though he is more interested in his family's welfare than her real husband ever had. The General denies it, but he has of course been possessed by Anton Arcane. After she leaves, Arcane arranges to have her die in a fatal car crash.

Swamp Thing then came to be captured by the Sunderland Corporation and held by Grasp who sought to wrest from him the secret of the bio-restorative formula. (Swamp Thing v2 #2)

Swamp Thing reluctantly arriving at the Barclay Clinic. Whilst there, he meets Dennis Barclay, a doctor who believes he has the power of psychic healing and seemingly treats Swamp Thing's wounds with only his hands. Later, at around the same time that Elizabeth Tremayne arrives at the clinic, Swampy makes the disturbing discovery that a lower level of the clinic is full of unconscious human clones. After learning about this secret, the Doctor, Tremayne and Swampy plot to leave before the corporation silences them but before fleeing they disconnect the clones from their coma-inducing equipment.
