Don't forget that nearly half of its prominent characters and lore can be attributed to Neil Gaiman guestwriting one issue early on.:russ:
Damn, forgot about that. Who all were in that issue? Angela, the heavenly spawn, the old knight version spawn? It's been so long can't remember, but I do remember he had that run of about 4 or 5 issues where he had guest writers like Frank Miller and Gaiman.

The movie wasn't that bad. It just came out at the wrong time and it tamed Spawn the one character that shouldn't be. Leguziamo killed that ish as Violator...but I do think the cartoon was alreay out so to see the cartoon, then have the tame movie...

BTW current Spawn comics are lit

Angela, Cogliostro and Medieval Spawn were all introduced in the issue written by Gaiman. Gaiman also wrote the Angela mini-series where he introduced the city of angels Elysium as well as multiple angelic characters, most notably Metatron.

Like I've said b4 no one has ruined their own creation more than Todd Mcfarlane

fukk outta here:camby:

Ruined one of the greatest black comic book heroes cuz he can't let go of his dumb ass ideas. Like a studio would let u make a superhero movie without any fights or even a villain:heh:

1). Todd McFarlane has been saying the EXACT same thing word for word for the past 15 or so years about the Spawn reboot movie, all the way down to Spawn being the "Ghost who lurks just out of view."

2). Having a movie called Spawn....without SPAWN front and center is stupid as all fukk. He's got the best story, costume, and power set of any character in that franchise...because..you know...he's the MAIN GODDAMN CHARACTER. Nobody gives two fukks about the two detectives or any other past or future spinoff characters.

3). McFarlane is high key :mjpls: when it comes to the character. He's tried his best to replace Al with another Spawn and nobody gave a fukk. I bet you anything if he could go back and introduce the character as a Cac he would

Why make him black in the first place though? If anything he didn't realize how racist white people are considering people of color watch 'white' movies all the time.

I don't think McFarlane is :mjpls:

Dude probably just didn't expect white folk to be so :mjpls:. Then again were they :mjpls: when Spawn came out. Thought the movie and series did well.

Oh he realized that white folks were :mjpls:when the studio forced him to make Terry a white guy becuz theywere afraid that Spawn would appear to be a "black movie"

He talked about in in sum commentary
