Spawn #259

The "Satan Saga Wars" kicks off here with Part 1 of 4, and Todd McFarlane's cover sets the stakes immediately — a caped, spike-adorned Spawn stands his ground against a towering, horn-covered crimson beast that dominates nearly the entire frame, debris flying as the two close the distance. McFarlane and Erik Larsen share both writing and art duties inside, with colors by FCO Plascencia bringing that sickly green sky and raw, menacing red of the creature to vivid life. If you've been waiting for a big Spawn story arc to jump into, 2015 delivers one right here.
