Does anyone still read this book? I think I got the first 10 issues then stopped. I never hear about it any more.

Yes it does, and its not that bad either. Although its not in the top of my list, I still enjoy it. I' m not sure though of the opinion that other people have for it on this board!

I was talking to someone today about this. Spawn gets solicited in Previews every month and I am not sure if it has come out in 6-7 months.

could be wrong

dont ban me

It comes out pretty much montly...and it used to be my favorite. I dont read it anymore. I kind of wish I did. That French Graphic novel looks bad ass.

I think Spawn is 6 or 7 months behind its solicitations. Always has been.

I was always able to overlook Spawn's deficiencies for its art, but the last 2-3 years have been downhill. Nothing against Angel Medina, but, it's just sort of an ugly comic now.

Have to quote an old redneck buddy of mine on that one..

Don't know
Don't care
Don't care to know...

I've got the first 10 or so issues. Did I read them? Yes. Did I like them? No. Will I ever buy it again? Not a chance.

Take that back, if Brian K Vaughan starts writing it, or David Mack starts doing the art, I'm in. If there's a crossover which has Spawn stopping by the Hideout, I'm all over it. If Gail Simone is on it, I'm there.... but short of those few things, which will never happen, I wouldn't buy Spawn.

For me, it's now a case of public image and personal politics that keep me away from McFarlane products. Cant see giving the guy any of my money when I dont agree with the way he handles his business.

I have been know to make exceptions to this rule, but only when a creator I honestly care about is working on one of his books. I bought Sam & Twitch and Hellspawn because of Bendis. I buy Casefiles because of Marc and Scott. But that's the only time.

With #74 or so, unheards of things like plot, characterization, and an actual direction entered the book when Todd began letting some one else write it. Very Happy I actually read it for awhile there, and it was kinda fun. Lost interest eventually, tho'...

Not really Spawn, but Andy Lee is doing a 6 issue stint on SAM & TWITCH written by Andreko.

I'm looking forward to it.
