What is /co/ expecting out of Spawn #400?
>>
>>155234952
Spawn The Animated Series announcement..
>>
>>155234952
It will certainly be a comic book, with color pictures, and text in speech bubbles, and also captions. Spawn will probably be in it.
>>
>>155234952
Can someone explain spawns enduring popularity to me? Is it literally just rad 90s? I grew up in the 90s and never gave a shit about him . Neither I nor my friends growing up read comics but two of them liked him just because and today as an adult I still don't see the appeal or how it's still one of the best selling comics every month is it literally just because he looks cool?
>>
>>155234995
Is it popular? I assume its the same shit as Savage Dragon, only moreso; Todd has oodles of cash, he can afford to keep the thing in print whether its making money or not.
>>
>>155235013
I don't know if it's spawn or one of his many spinoff books but every month it's one of the highest selling books at least according to comichron I'm sure part of it is variant cover autism and or toy deals
>>
>>155234952
More variant covers.
>>
>>155235013
I think there's a difference between publishing one book that you write and draw yourself on an irregular schedule and being able to afford to keep it going even if it's not selling that well, and producing a whole line of titles which are mostly on a monthly schedule and for which you're employing a lot of other people to produce.

The Spawn books have to be making enough money to justify there being about five or six ongoings plus several minis at any given time, if Todd was just burning money keeping a whole line of books going when nobody was buying, that would be newsworthy and people would have noticed and been talking about it.

I know it's just anecdotal, but a guy at the comic store I go to told me some of the Spawn books sell, some don't, but anything with the girl Spawn in sold well for him.
>>
>>155234952
Maybe he'll die, maybe he'll come back to life. Could be anything
>>
>>155235037
>>155236045
I didn't realize that this was a multiple book kind of thing, I thought that it was spawn and he occasionally put out minis.

Damned if I know then, maybe just the fact that it's consistent is enough for people to get into it.

>>155234995
Nostalgia blinkers for McFarlane by Gem Xers even though he's pretty much farmed out the production of the book to others and like Larsen, uses the founder clause to keep the book being published by Image.

Also, he does all of his merch in house and that helps him create the illusion that it still sells
>>
>>155235037
muhhh toyss!!!!!
>>
>>155234995
>Oh the cover and the splash pages aura farm the fuck out of people, why would perfect advertising hooks sell a comic?
>>
>>155235226
*gulp* M-more... ??
>>
>>155234952
Spawn book should bring back comedy
>>
>>155234952
I expect aunt may to die in this one.
>>
>>155234952
Absolute Spawn announcement.
>>
>>155234952
Cool demon guy fights evil demons and there's blood and stuff. Why wouldn't it be popular?
>>
>>155234952
everything after Armageddon feels like filler
>>
>>155234952
This series ended for me after the apocalypse arc.
>>
>>155234952
NYX to return.
>>
>>155241409
>>155241537
When does that fall in the compendiums? Should I grab the compendiums?

I just really like the idea of being able to buy a massive run from start to finish (of at least to start to a reasonable stopping point) like that.
