Synopsis
A new contender steps forward to claim the throne of Hell! Now Spawn may have to seek the help of one of his worst enemies in hopes of stopping this new threat.
Review
In this issue we see the quest to keep all the Deadzones closed for good is dramatically failing with each day passing a new zone appears empty, so now not only does Spawn have to deal with the fall out from the open Deadzones he now has the threat of Sinn who will stop at nothing to reclaim the Hell’s throne, Spawn needs to make his move and fast. To enable him to see out his plan he must team up with Haunt which in itself is a strained alliance but they can make it work, especially as they is literally no other option.
Meanwhile Sin is on the move, little does Spawn know he’s getting alot closer to the throne that he thought. Sin seems to be getting stronger and stronger and the matter of taking the Hell’s throne feels like a formality that is until a certain being immerges that could well change Sin’s plans altogether.
For me an iconic brand like Spawn is synonymous with comics and has been for years, the talents of Rory McConville show as he is able to reinvent such a well known character and keeping it fresh and relevant. This particular arc creates a new level of intensity and draws new fans into the Spawn world.
Being a follower of the Spawn multiverse I have seen quite a bit of the artistic talents of Carlo Barberi and each time I see his art I am impressed all over again, he knows the brand and hits it every single time.
Verdict
A series that keeps growing with strength with each issue, this arc is invigorating for the iconic brand and the future of the multiverse certainly looks exciting.
