Swamp Thing is apparently more immortal than Immortal Man...
"But Swamp Thing's not like the Immortal Man -- he can't die, can he?"

Swamp thing doesn't die in the orthodox sense, true, but he does fade out.
He goes to the parliment of the trees, and joins previous green elementals. And merely grows tall as a tree.
Great character tho, one of my top five, and the relationship he has with hellblazer is great.
Oh yeah, when Swamp thing took over Gotham with vegetation, Batman swore he'd kill ST if he tried to do so again........and ST believed it.

Well, it was one of those heated reaction things Batman had, after getting bested by Swampie & having to give in to the demands to release Abby from jail. It's not like he ever promised Joker he'd kill him.

The Phantom Stranger also confirms it.
And the reason the Word is unleashed is to prevent Swamp Thing from gaining his full power; had there been no threat, there wouldn't really have been a reason to awaken the Word, who hadn't been given a mission in eons, would there?
