Episode 129: Brian Holguin Appreciation Month - "Spawn: Godslayer #1 & #2" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Brian Holguin Appreciation Month continues and Spawn:Godslayer continues to rock harder than a wizard painted on the side of van. No, seriously. This book is such a fun amalgam of what makes Spawn great, what makes Brian Holguin great and how riffing on classic stories and archetypes with new characters can be a really enlightening way to revisit and reaxamine those themes. Philip Tan joins the book as the main penciller this time around and we are incredibly impressed with the work here. It's m
Episode 128: Brian Holguin Appreciation Month - "Spawn: Godslayer" One-Shot (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We were extremely sad to hear of Brian Holguin's recent passing so we are taking a break from our regular programming to dive into one of his most interesting works within the Spawn Universe: "Spawn: Godslayer." This is a non-canon, high fantasy take on the Spawn mythos we know and love and it showcases so much of what made Brian Holguin a pillar of what Spawn was, is and always will be. This episode and the next four will take a look at this underrated piece of work from an artist who should be
Episode 127: "New Beginnings, Part 5 & 6" - Spawn #205 & #206 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're wrapping up this arc and Jim Downing's Spawn journey continues as he reckons with becoming a celebrity and something of a miracle worker. The mysterious, villainous Bludd sends three ancient vampires to test Jim's powers, forcing him into a brutal fight where he discovers just how powerful and unpredictable he can be. Still struggling with his identity and mysterious past, Jim becomes increasingly desperate for answers about what he actually is. And us? We're just trying to figure it all o
Episode 126: "New Beginnings, Part 3 & 4" - Spawn #203 & #204 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're moving the chains of this plot forward but despite the progress coming at something of a snails pace, we had a good time with these issues. Szymon Kudranski's art is the real standout but it's to see the book settling into a more mdoern rhythm and not fighting with itself over what it wants to be. And what it wants to be right now is a horror-tinged procedural drama with no easily likeable characters and that's perfectly okay! This week's recommendations are Emily Wilson's Odyssey translat
Episode 125: "New Beginnings, Part 1 & 2" - Spawn #201 & #202 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Omega Spawn is in the rearview (for now) and for once it feels like the Jim Downing era has a meaningful direction. Szymon Kudranski joins the book and contributes mightily to the change in tone and atmosphere. There is more to Jim than meets the eye and the Unholy Trinity that Clown mentioned issues ago is really starting to take shape. It seems that new writer Will Carlton really has an idea of where to take this book. Wait... who the heck is Will Carlton? This weeks' recommendations are the f
