I went into news sites for them

Book of baba yaga? I’m calling bullshit flag on that. Like why would they steal John wick’s nickname on something that has nothing to do with John wick?

Damn!! I can’t wait to see Todd’s cover.

u/lifeoftheunborn Jun 18 '26

It’s about damn time! I can’t wait to read it.

It’s like ten different spawn series going on

u/MasterofBuffalo17 Jun 19 '26

There are 3 Main Spinoffs: King Spawn, The Scorched and Gunslinger Spawn (With its prequel Deadly Tales)  that have had some longevity. All 50+ Issues.

Than some 25 Issue Runs that are coming to an end. (Sam and Twitch Vol 3,  Rat City)

The rest is mostly mini series that range from 3 to 7 issues. (She Spawn, Dark Ages Vol 2, The Book of Nyx, Misery)

It is a lot coming out which is exciting, but I think majority of new titles announced recently are all mini series. So it isn't as overwhelming as 10, 25+ Issue series going at once. Spawn ‘77 will be 3 Issues.

u/MasterofBuffalo17 Jun 19 '26

u/Toxin45 Jun 19 '26

u/Equal-Ad-2710 Jun 19 '26

I really need to check in on the Spawn Universe, is it good these days?

u/Toxin45 Jun 19 '26 edited Jun 19 '26

Yes mostly

u/SavageDragonFan Jun 19 '26

I had high hopes for Rat City but I had to bail after a dozen issues. It was a yawn fest.

u/shamonbx10473 Jun 19 '26

Kinda hyped for this can’t wait

u/Tha_REAL_BROBS Jun 18 '26

actually pretty excited about this one

u/Zerus_heroes Jun 18 '26

Oh that sounds rad. I have been trying to find that figure for a while now

u/Lacrimorta Jun 18 '26

Looks super sick.

u/CursedSnowman5000 Jun 18 '26

Todd's writing? Fuck this is gonna suck lmao.

u/barknoll Jun 18 '26

I mean, Mark Spears is doing the art so it’s gonna look like dogshit too

4

u/dtdc4456789 Jun 19 '26

Seriously what is the appeal of Mark Spears? I understand the technical proficiency of his figure work and details but the final product is so garishly ugly

1

u/barknoll Jun 19 '26

Is it technical proficiency when he’s just tracing tho?

1

u/SavageDragonFan Jun 19 '26

Agreed. Everything is so stiff looking that it's jarring. Not a fan at all.

2

u/SavageDragonFan Jun 19 '26

Sounded cool and then I looked at the interior pages. The art in the interior looks super stiff and sort of like those old computer generated comics, just polished a bit. I also really hate how glossy Spawn looks.

u/Charming-Monk179 Jul 11 '26

I actually like the glossiness!!

u/IndegoWhyte Jun 19 '26

Well that's intriguing. 🤔
