DEBUTING IN MAY 1992, Spawn has become the longest running creator-owned comic book, amassing 319 issues over the past three decades. But while fellow Image founders like Rob Liefeld expanded their lines to include several interlinked series, Todd McFarlane’s demonic offspring has mostly stood alone.
That’s now set to change with the launch of Spawn’s Universe, which begins later this month with a one-shot special scripted by McFarlane and featuring the art of Jimmy Cheung, Brett Booth, Stephen Segovia and Marcio Takara, on Spawn, Gunslinger Spawn, Medieval Spawn and She-Spawn respectively.
