Review
When you see a comic series out of the Spawn multiverse you kind of get a good general idea what you’re going to get, mainly an action packed read with blood and gore by the bucket load and Scorched #2 is no different from that formula and that definitely is not a bad thing.
Issue #2 sees our super group of hellspawn arrive I Russia but they’re not here for the scenery, they’ve come for answers and they’re not going to ask nicely. In a story that could quite easily be on the big screen as a plot from an action movie The Scorched are attempting to infiltrate an old military base but what they find isn’t exactly what they were expecting. New enemies equals a new threat which means the Scorched need to up their game to eliminate the threat and get the answers they need.
This series has started in the way that only a Spawn multiverse title would, grabs you and takes you on a ride of your life that doesn’t slow down in pace throughout, each page is crammed with as much action as you could fit, being a Spawn fan it is great to see the different characters coming together forming the most badass squad ever.
Sean Lewis has expertly crafted a story that not only captures the Spawn feel he’s also injected a whole new lease of life into the iconic multiverse, as soon as it was announced I just knew that this setoes was going to be epic and I haven’t been disappointed yet.
The artistic style that Stephen Segovia has brought to the illustration side fits just right with what a Spawn fan would expect, plenty of blood and gore but it’s not over the top, in fact it actually adds more life to the story as a whole giving it alot more depth and feeling.
Verdict
In just two issues this series has blown me away. I can’t wait to see more of the Scorched world. Another fantastic job by the whole creative team.
