Die längste unabhängige Comic-Serie der Welt in chronologischen Sammelbänden! Spawn Al Simmons muss seinen ärgsten Feind bekämpfen – den Dämon in seinem Inneren, dem er seine Macht verdankt. In einem unvergesslichen Meilenstein der SPAWN Historie geht eine Ära für Todd McFarlanes Antihelden zu Ende und alles verändert sich...

"MINISERIES FINALE Spawn and Witchblade in a battle to end all battles to save our world. This series grand finale is not to be missed!"

Witchblade is captured and crucified will she survive? And will Spawn be her savior?

Al Simmons muss die Folgen seines Konflikts mit Malebolgia, dem Höllenfürsten, der ihn zu Spawn gemacht hat, bewältigen. Die ersten, die seine Wut spüren, sind seine alten Erzfeinde Overtkill und Jason Wynn. Aber dann bekommt er es mit dem Himmelreich zu tun, einer scheinbar religiösen Sekte, die ihre Netze in New York ausgeworfen hat. Und einer, der sich darin verfängt, ist der älteste Sohn von Detective Twitch.

John Doe''s past is finally revealed.

TODD McFARLANE LÄSST DIE TEUFEL TANZEN! Jim Downing erwacht nach Jahren aus dem Koma ohne Erinnerung daran, wer er eigentlich ist. Und er stellt fest, dass eine dunkle Macht Besitz von ihm ergriffen hat. Er muss diese Spawn-Wesenheit in den Griff kriegen, was aber gar nicht so einfach ist. Und er begreift bald, dass Macht nicht nur korrumpiert, sondern auch süchtig macht! Todd McFarlane stellt eindrucksvoll unter Beweis, dass er in den Jahren der Abwesenheit von der Serie nichts verlernt hat. "Endspiel" hat das Zeug, zu einem Klassiker der langen Geschichte der Spawn-Serie zu werden! Teil 3 von "Endspiel", der großen Spawn-Saga!

TODD McFARLANE MISCHT DIE ENGEL AUF! Jim Downing erwacht nach Jahren aus dem Koma und stellt fest, dass eine dunkle Macht Besitz von ihm ergriffen hat. Er muss diese Spawn-Wesenheit in den Griff kriegen, was aber gar nicht so einfach ist. Erst recht nicht, wenn auch noch ein Engel auftaucht, der alles andere als gut auf ihn zu sprechen ist. Und im Hintergrund werden Netze gesponnen, von denen der neue Spawn nichts ahnt. Unter anderem von einem gewissen Clown ... Teil 4 des Endspiels, der großen Spawn-Saga!

What if the MOST DANGEROUS man on Earth was also the one trying to do the MOST GOOD? The world is real. The people are normal. And then he appears! A man appears with no background, no memory, and no place to call home. But he has powers. Powers that seem resemble those we learned about in Sunday School. Could it be?! Is it possible that this man is much, much more than that? Is it possible that he is our ''SAVIOR'' in the flesh? And if he is, then why doesn''t he know who he is or how he got his powers? Strip away the spandex and trappings of the traditional comic superhero and ask yourself a simple question: ''How would I react if GOD suddenly appeared in front of me, but everything we had been taught about him seems out of whack?'' What you would have left, beyond your own doubts, is the presence of a man who has to deal with the fact that his appearance in the world is seen as both a blessing and a curse. Some will see him as a hero, a messiah. Other will see him as an enemy because there isn''t room for a person with god-like powers to disrupt the status quo of what we already believe. Some will rally behind him. Others will denounce him. But none of us will be able to ignore him.

Nel preciso istante in cui Al Simmons si suicida rivolgendo contro se stesso i poteri di Spawn, sul letto di un ospedale un uomo esce dal coma. In questi tre nuovi episodi di “Fine dei giochi” scopriremo finalmente l’identità del “paziente 47”. E altro ancora. Di Todd McFarlane, Brian Holguin e Whilce Portacio!

Die Abenteuer des schwärzesten und coolsten Comics der Geschichte gehen genau da weiter, wo sie beim Infinity Verlag aufhörten. Nyx wagt sich immer weiter in die Stadt Hell, die nicht mehr die zu sein scheint, die sie einst war. Seit Spawn nicht mehr auf dem Thron sitzt, stürzt Hell ins Chaos ab und ist mit dem neuen Regenten zu einem Polizeistaat geworden. Selbst mit der Hilfe des Redeemer sind Nyx' Überlebenschancen gering.

Die Story Hellbound findet ihren Abschluss: Nyx findet ihre Freundin Thea in der Hölle, aber die Rettungsaktion endet ganz anders, als Nyx sich das vorgestellt hat! Und anschließend beginnt Devil to Pay: Al Simmons erwacht aus dem Koma und hat eine fällige Rechnung mit Nyx zu begleichen. Die lang erwartete Fortsetzung der Serie, die längst Comic-Geschichte geschrieben hat!

Spawn is a hero unlike any other. A goverment agent, Al Simmons was killed by his own men. Resurrected from the depths of hell, he retuened to Earth as a warrior of Spawn, guarding the forgotten alleys of New York City. As he seeks answers about his past, Spawn grapples with the dark forces that returned him. From the back cover.

Over the past several issues, Spawn has experienced the most dramatic series of twists in its long history. Events that have rocked the status quo and echoed from the heights of Heaven to the pit of Hell. But what does it all mean? A young reporter following an obscure lead thinks he's stumbled upon the answer. As incredible as his suspicions may be, the truth is something far beyond his imagination.

Last issue, everything changed! The world of Spawn was rocked by the most stunning moment in the series'' sixteen year history. And now, the mystery deepens... Sides are chosen and secrets are revealedÉ

The landmark 185th issue of Spawn unleashes a brand new creative team and the return of two Image Comics founders -- Todd McFarlane and Whilce Portacio. Todd will helm the book and joins Whilce on art duties, and Brian Holguin returns as writer. New energy and an entirely new direction -- get ready for the event that is as big as issue #1. Featuring variant covers by Todd, Whilce, and Greg Capullo.

While Spawn battles Heaven's bad boy, The Disciple, his greatest enemies are gathering in the pits of Hell. The Grand Inquisitor Thamuz has sworn to uncover Spawn's deepest secret or tear his soul apart trying. Meanwhile, the fate of mankind rests in the hands of a thirteen-year-old boy.

Spawn sifts through the rubble of his life -- broken shards of memory and lost pieces of the past -- in a desperate attempt to find a terrible secret that the fallen angel Mammon has hidden inside of him. As the Hellspawn's searching leads him into unexpected quarters and face-to-face with enemies old and new, he can't shake the feeling that no matter what he does, no matter which path he chooses, he is doing precisely what Mammon wants.

In the windy city of Chicago, Al Simmons is still struggling to discover Mammon''s plan. Determined to stop him, Al searches the city for clues. His search leads him to an old church as well as an old foe. The groundwork of an all-new Spawn and issue 150 starts here.

Al Simmons'' search leads him into the snow-covered mountains of Minnesota where he is rescued from a snowstorm by a young boy and his family. When a group of hunters is ambushed, Spawn is forced to fight off a small pack of unnaturally large wolves.

Wandering the country in hopes of stopping Mammon and regaining the memories he stole, Al Simmons comes across a small town with a mysterious tradition. In order to ensure the safety of its citizens, the townsfolk have created a Tiend celebration that results in a sacrifice. Feeling his involvement is required, Spawn tries to stop the sacrifice. But his heroic motives result in Spawn coming face to face with The Forgotten Ones. Angelic creations of God, The Forgotten Ones had refused to fight against their creator; nor would they take up arms against their rebel brothers. Because of these actions, The Forgotten Ones were banished, but they also claim another in the tribe: Mammon. Although it could result in the end of their existence, The Forgotten Ones permit Spawn to try and save the sacrifice and stop the Tiend. Upon completing the ceremony, Spawn is able to save the girl. The Forgotten Ones warn Spawn that stopping this sacrifice has only caused a chain reaction and more sacrifices will need to be made.

His memories taken from him by Mammon, Al Simmons wanders the countryside hoping to find answers to a question he doesn't even remember. His trip takes him into a bizarre small town that seems to have a certain infatuation with the Devil. The architecture of the town has incorporated the Devil in some way or another: Stained-glass windows, mantles, handrails and doorknockers all contain undeniable Hellish motifs. Simmons comes across a poster for the town's Teind. Uncertain just what a Teind is, Simmons asks the local bed and breakfast owner Ruth about it. She tells him it is a festival that ensures that the town is surrounded by blessings and good fortune. She also explains the devilish dŽcor as a way to ensure that the town's folk are aware that evil is all around them. Simmons finds out the about the town's Teind, its hell-born architecture and the real reasons behind the town's beliefs as he attempts to rescue a little girl from being sacrificed and comes face to face with The Forgotten Ones.

Pinned down by the very Hellspawn he has vowed to destroy, The Redeemer has been beaten. Spawn makes it clear that he wants to make an example as he swiftly cuts each of The Redeemers'' wings off. As the final feather falls to the ground, The Redeemer reverts to his human form. Then Mammon interrupts. Wasting no time, Mammon reveals that he has been behind all of Spawn''s recent "distractions," and restrains Spawn by using his recently acquired power from Nyx. The game Mammon has been orchestrating is nearing an end. And to ensure the Hellspawn is distracted while Mammon continues with his plans, all of Al Simmons'' memories of Wanda are taken and destroyed. Wandering the country, Simmons is left searching for something that he cannot remember.

Things have not been what they seem. Spawn, Nyx and The Redeemer have all been playing right into Mammon''s hands. Spawn and The Redeemer fight among themselves, with Spawn pinning down The Redeemer and threatening him with his own sword. Mammon reveals to Nyx that she has not only betrayed Spawn, but also been tricked into giving Mammon her connection with the Hellspawn. And it should only be a matter of time before the world finds out what Mammon plans to do with this newfound power.

Near death, Nyx makes final preparations for her trip into the depths of Hell to save her friend, Thea. With Al Simmons in the hospital after his last encounter with the Clown and the thousand of his minions, his condition goes from bad to worse once Nyx takes away his Hell-born essence. With the powers of a Hellspawn at her whim, Nyx strikes a deal with N''Zzezheaal, a lessor lord of Hell, in hopes of gaining free passage into the 8th level of Hell. Once there, Nyx is determined save her friend. But who or what is going to save Nyx?
