Curse of the Spawn #23
In "Overt-Resurrection," Dr. Hessman pushes the limits of resurrection once more, reviving his step-brother not as a mere corpse, but as the terrifying Overt-Kill. When that form is shattered, he gathers the pieces and reassembles his brother into an even more volatile incarnation—Overt-War. Written by Alan McElroy and illustrated by Dwayne Turner, with inks by Chance Wolf, Todd McFarlane, Jason Gorder, and Jonathan Glapion, and colors by Todd Broeker and Mark Nicholas, this 1998 Image Comics issue delivers a grim, relentless evolution of a tragic experiment. The cover by Dwayne Turner and Chance Wolf captures the grim intensity of the moment.
