Spawn #31

by Todd McFarlane & Greg Capullo

“The Homecoming”
Dedicated To: Tom Palmer

Filled with an anxiety he didn’t expect, Spawn breaks into a sprint. Adrenalin pumps harder. He needs his alleys. Moreso, he wants them.

Gentlemen, let this serve as a formal introduction. I am Rafael. I am taking over for Gabrielle, who has been removed as Commander of Terran Affairs.

Earlier today in New York City’s Bowery, a “mysterious light” was at the center of the unexpected disappearance of one of the area’s leading citizens. Phil Timper had worked with the homeless through various charities and shelters for eleven years, and was honored last year…

Violator vs. Badrock #1-4 (1995)

by Alan Moore & Brian Denham & Jonathan Sibal & Danny Miki

Through here we have video records of the shopping mall incident last year in New York that inspired Project Dante… A group of extra-terrestrial beings, strikingly similar to the medieval concept of demons, appeared from thin air…

Celestine #1-2 (1996)

by Warren Ellis & Patrick Lee & various

Where do angels go when they die?

There is an angel who has killed angels. There was a rebellion in heaven once, and she wore the teeth of the rebels as jewelry. She struck them down, and thought nothing of where she was sending them…

I fought a demon on Earth, and he tricked me. He tore out my heart and threw it on the floor.

Meanwhile… Illegal Machine, Mr. Fixit, & Diabolu Frank talk about the four hours of appeasement to a toxic fandom and/or AT&T’s opportunistic grift trading false hopes of #RestoreTheSnyderVerse to bump soft HBO Max subscriber numbers in a pandemic. Cards on the table, we all liked both versions of Justice League, but that won’t stop the shade or temper the sizzling hot takes. Equal opportunity offense is our stock-in-trade, and business is good. Both sides can eat a big fat di–rector’s (un)cut. #Justice4SilasStone

Face Front, True Believers! Join Diabolu Frank, Illegal Machine, and very occasionally Mr. Fixit (on the rare instances where Frank isn’t talking over him) as we cover the first MCU debut in nearly two years (especially since Frank passed on Far From Home!) As usual, we’re covering an adaptation instead of actual comics, but not without some guilt, so we spend a chunk of the initial half-hour of the show covering our four color experiences with Vision and the Scarlet Witch (none of us ever read the actual mini-series.) Then we talk the first Marvel Studios television series (hand wanking motion from the ABC/Netflix crowds) and at least one of us had very. severe. opinions! Excelsior!

Spawn #30

“The Clan”
Dedicated To: Little Katie and Cyan

Those white-trash maggots! I swear they’ll pay for this! If it’s the last thing I do, they’ll pay!

So believe me, I understand your anger… but they’ve only torched your fields. When they had all they could stomache of me, they torched something far more precious. That’s why I wear the mask. Because of them.

WHAT?! It’s a friggin’ colored! How dare you desecrate the sacred robe?! NO darkie is worthy of its touch! How dare you mess with us?!
