Product Description: Witness the power of pure Spawn with this essential collection! It all started in 1992 with Todd McFarlane's smash hit Spawn. Don't have those early issues? Oh, yeah... they've been out of print for years! Well, here they are in a brand new collection - bigger and badder than ever!!! This collection features the pulse-pounding art and stories of the master himself, Todd McFarlane! This collection also includes Marc Silvestri's Spawn issue and Greg Capullo's first issues.
Spawn Intense storyline and subject matter. Illustrations are awesome consistently throughout the comic. Great read, very entertaining.
Spawn Collection Volume 2 This one and the next one I'm going to pick up, is letting me know what I miss.
Spawn: Season of the Crossover IMPORTANT MESSAGE: READER BEWARE: This volume requires you to read outside mini-series. - Violator, Angela, Spawn: Blood Feud, and Youngblood issues 7 & 8
OK, Let me just start by saying that I've been on the Spawn-wagon since day 1. I have the entire series in comic format. All the mini-series & spin-off's. Basically every comic he's ever appeared in. So trust me when I say, that this volume as it is, is incomplete. It collects issues 13 through 33, but doesn't include any crossovers that are necessary to fill various plot holes you'll encounter.
REQUIREMENTS:
- THE VIOLATOR (Mini-Series) - Occurs during issues 21 through 23. (As far as I can tell, there is no trade-paper-back that collects these.)
- ANGELA (Mini-Series) - Occurs between Issues 28 & 29 (This one is 100% necessary, And yes there is a TPB, but it's rare, not as rare as the comics though.)
- SPAWN: BLOOD FEUD (Mini-Series) - Occurs between issues 32 & 33 (The prelude of which can only be found in comic format, as a 6-page addition to issue #32. And once again no TPB that collects this mini-series, which is crucial to the Spawn storyline, as many future issues refer back to this mini-series.)
- YOUNGBLLOD #7 - occurs after issue #23 - (not necessary to the plot) -You only need this issue if you want to see where Overtkill winds up after Twitch fires a bullet into his ear.
- YOUNGBLOOD #8 - occurs before issue #27 (Unfortunately this one is also necessary reading, as it contains the death of 2 major Spawn characters. I'm not gonna ruin it for you, by telling you which ones.)
In conclusion, I'd like to say, I would've given this collection 5 stars, but it's incomplete. Aside from which, issues 19 & 20 are retarded. (The arc concerning Houdini as a dimensional-traveling hyper-mage, a flying car, and a Spawn suit that can produce anything with just a thought.) Like I said, retarded. A stain on Spawn's reputation. Other than that, the writing is superb, and the art is amazing. Action-packed horror/fantasy for any comic-book junkie. Old or new.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Even the homeless have their king.
Continuing the decent.... Got the 1st Volume, so naturally had to get the second. And waiting for more.
Great storyline, great artwork, great everything! Well, I finally received this book - so it has apparently come out finally (though spawn.com still says it came out in September). The book is HUGE and well worth the wait, and well worth the money I put out for it. I'm still delving into the Spawn mythos, so these books have been a great start for me. Get it!
