Spawn #228

Spawn #228 pays loving tribute to a golden age of superhero comics with a cover by Todd McFarlane that reimagines a vintage Action Comics composition — but with a very Spawn twist. Instead of the Man of Steel, it's the caped, chain-wielding Spawn hoisting a battered green car overhead amid an eruption of debris and vivid yellow-red light. McFarlane's pencils and inks are sharp and dynamic, making this February 2013 issue a treat for fans who appreciate both comics history and Image's hellspawn antihero at his most forceful.
