Product Description

Book Description

These are the stories that started the legend. Al Simmons, formerly one of our government`s greatest soldiers, was resurrected from the ashes of his own grave. Reborn as a creature from the depths of Hell, disfigured, homeless, and alone, this new warrior known as Spawn now wanders the shadowy alleys of New York City in search of his past life. Robbed of his memories and identity, this freshly created man whose body is nothing more than scars and torn flesh becomes a protector of the weak, the poor, the downtrodden and other victims of circumstance. While Spawn tries to piece together his confusing existence, an unwelcome mentor reveals the purpose of his abrupt return to earth. But since this guide comes from the dark side, can he be trusted to tell the truth? And just what is the truth? Find out why Spawn exists, who his real enemies are, and whom he can trust, for in this twisted world of shadow players, nothing is as it appears. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars the demon murdering fiery assasin from hell. cool, Jun 6 2004

By	sajun rude (Mpls, MN United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spawn Vol 4 NLA (Paperback)

this is a very worth buying comic book. it has an exciting plot that includes emotion drama and lotsof brain pounding action plus you find out a little more why al simmons/ spawn
was assasinated and sent to hell. this book also has a very intresting twist with the famous magician harri houdini . and even if you arent familiar with the concept and story of spawn this comic is a pretty good place to start. i would recommend this spawn to any new or old fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why is it that everyone who hates Spawn can't spell?, May 31 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Spawn Volume 11: Crossroads (Paperback)

It seems to me that people who talk about reading GOOD literature should be able to spell fairly well, right? Not the case.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hell born hero makes his way to his first biograhphy, May 16 2004

By	Ashlan Brennock (chicago,IL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spawn Vol 1: Beginnings NLA (Paperback)

Todd Mcfarlane created spawn after workin on marvel comics. He also gave them one of there best villians "Venom" from spider man. after leaving Marvel he gathered with some friends to create Image comics. Spawn quickly became known to the world after some help from money spending comic book junkies. This is a trade paper back or ghrapic novel if you will, the first one made containing spawn comic books. The story writing is great, the drawing is outstanding. It was all done by todd mcfarlane ( there was no help involved.

The book contains five issues of exelance:

first issue : "beginings"
sencond issue:"questions part 3"
third issue : "questions part 3"
fourth issue : "questions part 4"
fith issue : " justice "
The first four issues are the concepts of spawn getting to know himself and you. The fith issue is where he takes a uniuqe mission : to find billy kincaid. Billy Kincade is a child killer who broke from prision and rides around in an ice cream truck.Now who would think of all this.
