Brian Holguin's own little "Spawn Across America" arc takes a darker turn with a Rashomon-style tale of racist violence that's met by Spawn's retribution and then the first part of a Richard Ramirez-referencing serial killer story. This leads Geoge and Pierce on a discussion about the nature of evil in Spawn and how it is and isn't effectively portrayed. Can a comic book like this one tackle more serious themes effectively? It's a mixed bag. Does this inevitably lead to some discussion of Alf? Of course it does. 

This week's recommendations are to do something frivolous - something spontaneous that has no meaning other than to bring you some happiness - and to watch the Akira Kurosawa classic, Rashomon. 'Nuff said.
