Jason Woodrue is aware of the green and he uses Swamp Thing's body to contact it. But it goes wrong and it mutates him into a creature similar to Swamp Thing. He is driven insane because of this and now wants to replace Swamp Thing as the protector of the green. He wants to do this to kill all non plant life on Earth.
