Ending Its 30th Anniversary Year With A Bang…
SPAWN brought 2022 to a close in a historic way, seeing the character appear on more than 75 crossover covers across both Image and DC comics. The 75+ covers featuring SPAWN (not including his own titles) mark a historic event for the character, marking the most consecutive crossover covers in a 1 month span…
SPAWN continued to prove its popularity with fans, having several crossover covers sell out immediately and getting rushed back for reprints.
The crossovers event comes in celebration of Spawn’s 30th Anniversary and highlights Spawn with Image and DC’s most iconic characters.
The Image and extended DCU variant covers released in the same month as the highly-anticipated BATMAN/SPAWN crossover comic.
BATMAN/SPAWN #1 saw McFarlane reunite with longtime SPAWN and BATMAN artist Greg Capullo, and marks the first time the characters have met since 1994.
This variant cover event closes out another successful year for SPAWN and lets fans see the Hellspawn team up with some of their other favourite characters.

ABOUT SPAWN, LEGENDARY ARTISTS AND SPAWN CREATOR AND IMAGE COMICS PRESIDENT, TODD MCFARLANE
Todd McFarlane’s Spawn is one of the world’s best-selling and longest-running monthly comic books, with several hundred million copies sold worldwide in more than 120 countries. McFarlane’s new title, SPAWN’S UNIVERSE #1, is Image Comics’ top-selling first issue of the 21st Century. IMAGE COMICS is one of the largest comics publisher in North American and McFarlane is the co-founder and president. In August 2021, the newest Spawn Universe title King Spawn #1 sales numbers demolished The Avenger’s record and became a 25-year record-breaking new superhero monthly title launch.
McFarlane’s Spawn made history with the release of the historic Spawn #300, and Spawn #301 has earned the Guinness World Records title for the longest-running creator-owned superhero comic book series in the world. The road to McFarlane’s history-making comic run began in 1992 when he co-founded Image Comics and the released Spawn #1, still the single-best-selling issue all-time for any creator-owned comic.
The comic became an Emmy Award-winning animated series on HBO and a live-action feature film grossing more than $100 million. In addition, McFarlane became a true comic book superstar for his record-setting work on Marvel Comics’ Spider-Man franchise and held the world’s record for most sales of a superhero book written and drawn by the same person, with Spider-Man #1 published by Marvel in the ’90s. He co-created Marvel’s top villain Venom, appearing in multiple titles and a successful movie for Sony’s film division.
After garnishing prominent success in the comic industry, McFarlane founded the international award-winning McFarlane Toys, one of America’s top action figure manufacturers. In 2020, the new release of a Spawn figure on Kickstarter set a new Kickstarter record, in its category, for raising just under $3.5 million in 30 days.
