5.0 out of 5 stars Spawn #1, April 26, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Spawn 1 (Hardcover)

This is one of the fine artr work of Todd Mcarlene when he was fresh from the MArvel Comics before he head out to Image. The Chracter spawn in this comics is a lost soul who is a member of a secret service agent who needs to be silence after a specific duty. Spawn return to earth in search for the memory he have bargain with the devil whom he can't remember what is the bargain about. Overall the artwork in the comics is Great when it was launch back in 92 and to compare the art at that time and now is two different things. The comics back then have not much of a computer aided effect so all the art are originally drawn and then printed art. For a great fan of Spawn it would be great to keep the original first printing of this issue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enter The Spawn, June 12, 2004

This review is from: Spawn 1 (Hardcover)

When it was first published, Spawn was a very much needed kick in the butt to the whole superheroes comic book genre (which might be the only genre in the States...!). The Spawn it's a human being, not an aerobics teacher wearing tighs, like your typical DC-Marvel formula hero profile. It is somebod who feels, who loves sometimes and hates most of the time.

Don't get the wrong idea, the Spawn is not an antihero yet. We might need to wait some other 50 years for a real antihero coming out in the United States comics, but it's a step further (no brainer: villain and anti-hero are totally different things)...
