That man was Todd McFarlane. Now, nearly fifty years later, McFarlane brings a vision of that original idea to the Spawn Universe in collaboration with acclaimed artist Mark Spears — a completely new and exciting take on the fan-favorite character, marking the first official comic book appearance of McFarlane's earliest Spawn design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Collectors Want This Cover\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cover pairs Spears' pencils directly with Todd McFarlane's own inks, a rare combination that ties the two co-creators' hands together on a single image.
