Detective Twitch Williams

Detective Twitch Williams is a sharp, cerebral New York City police detective who operates in the dark, supernatural world surrounding Spawn. He frequently partners with the rougher Detective Sam Burke, the two forming an unlikely investigative duo navigating cases that blur the line between crime and the paranormal.

Stepping out of the gritty streets of Image Comics' Spawn universe, Detective Twitch Williams made his debut in Spawn Blood Feud #3 in 1995 — brought to life by the legendary Alan Moore and Tony Daniel right in the thick of the Copper/Modern Age. A fixture across flagship titles like Spawn and Hellspawn, Twitch keeps remarkable company, sharing pages with Spawn himself, Al Simmons, and his frequent partner Detective Sam Burke over a publishing run that stretched across fourteen years. For fans who love their superhero comics grounded in noir detective grit, Twitch Williams is a compelling human anchor in one of Image's most beloved and darkly atmospheric corners.
