“There is a red and angry world…”
Swamp Thing (1983–1987)
Context: There is a red and angry world...
Red things happen there.
The world eats your wife...
Eats your friends...
Eats all the things... that make you human...
And you become a monster.
And the world... just keeps on eating.

“Written in red their protest stands,
For the Gods of the World to see”
Voltairine de Cleyre (1866–1912) American anarchist writer and feminist
"Written-In-Red" de Cleyre's last poem, dedicated "To Our Living Dead in Mexico's Struggle"; first lines.
Context: Written in red their protest stands,
For the Gods of the World to see;
On the dooming wall their bodiless hands
have blazoned "Upharsin," and flaring brands
Illumine the message: "Seize the lands!
Open the prisons and make men free!"
Flame out the living words of the dead
Written-in-red.
