Who is The Curse?

A sinister supernatural figure inhabiting the dark mythology of Todd McFarlane's Spawn universe, The Curse is a menacing entity significant enough to anchor the spin-off series Curse of the Spawn, operating within the same hellish world as Spawn and other nightmarish figures.

Emerging from the dark, visceral world of Todd McFarlane's Spawn in 1995, The Curse is a Modern Age creature of Image Comics' most celebrated corner of hell β€” a figure sinister enough to earn their own dedicated series in Curse of the Spawn and persistent enough to haunt the mythology for fifteen years. Sharing shadowy pages with icons like Spawn himself, Al Simmons, and the monstrous Cy-Gor, The Curse occupies a genuinely menacing niche in one of indie comics' richest supernatural universes. With appearances stretching from mid-nineties darkness all the way to the ambitious Image United crossover, this is a character who left a real mark on the sprawling, infernal tapestry McFarlane built β€” well worth tracking down for any serious Spawn collector.
