The Origin of Spawn (Spawn Origins Part 1: Questions)

[@faded1to3black]

So glad to see you covering Spawn. He was my first huge exposure to superheros in comic book form. Collected the whole run from 1 to 137.

[@figtreeson5750]

Wow that’s actually amazing

[@wrcarter4]

Spawn is to steeped in greatness for a movie. It needs to be a "Netflix show" or a streamed show. Think of all the explaining that can take place in one 13 episode season versus a 2-hour movie. Thats what I really want.

[@robdcollector2808]

wrcarter4 ...thats an awesome idea! They have some really good series on netflix...season 1 of Daredevil was amazing. I would def go with a Spawn series over a movie to have a good storyline continue!

[@dsilverleaf4668]

yeh netflicks would do it justice, Spawn def needs a Hard R rating

[@cartervandenberg4771]

If you haven't already, check out the hbo spawn series. It doesn't go very in-depth into the lore and it ends on a cliffhanger, but it really shows how badass a spawn series could be if given to the right people

[@Chandasouk]

Carter I was so pissed the show never continued. I still remember Spawn saying, "I want my humanity back!"

[@nicholasmcmorrisdaye149]

wrcarter4 yep you hit the nail in the coffin right there my friend that would make both so much more sense especially if they do it like The Punisher Daredevil Frank Castle type Style

[@genarosiles8840]

Spawn is such a badass antiheroe.

[@TomMcD71]

The Spawn movie was okay but the cartoon was awesome

[@furyberserk]

The cartoon was too slow paced for me. I was expecting a bunch of action, but got a lot of thinking of what I'm doing while doing nothing, but stopping things from happening sometimes. He felt too aimless, and I know that's canon how it goes for him, but it wasn't what I was hoping for. I wanted to hunt his enemies, not wait to be hunted.

[@jacobhamilton2473]

furyberserk being a homeless demigod gives you a lot of time to reflect.

[@maggiebrashears2327]

True. The cartoon was infuckingcredible

[@Koraxus]

It was meant to be an introductory saga and that's why you didn't see that much action. A shame it ended on a cliffhanger and was never resumed.

[@coolbeans3752]

Definitely

[@LittleFears]

Rob covering Spawn? Oh, my... I am here for this.

[@ChumpionTV]

Little Fears he did the exact same fucking thing two years ago moron

[@LittleFears]

Chumpion TV Did that really require calling me a moron? Hah.

[@metalxcorereviews6842]

Little Fears why did he call you a moron?

[@godzilla1309]

This is my favourite comic book character by far, I started collecting comics for him and still do. I can remember when I was 7 I got a Spawn action figure that got the issue #1. Still keep it.

[@bluephantom1999]

Rest in Peace Benny. We'll miss you and the amazing videos you've made.

[@sexypancake900]

Ive waited a long time for Rob to cover Spawn....

[@jonahda0mega]

Sexy Pancake batman R.I.P storyline from grant Morrison

[@ChumpionTV]

He did the exact same video 2 years ago you moron

[@sexypancake900]

Chumpion TV 2 years is a long time friend

[@Naeem_El]

Spawn is so freaky awesome. I think Jamie Foxx is a good actor but him playing Spawn is I don't know if he can pull it off.

[@robdcollector2808]

Andon Christian El ...i hate Jamie Foxx. Hes aweful. The guy who played spawn in the 90s..Michael Jae White still does movies and was a better choice

[@Naeem_El]

Robd collector I agree with you they need to get him back to do the movie again

[@robdcollector2808]

Andon Christian El ....the only thing Jamie Foxx is good at is stealing ex wives from friends. He dont even like them black either...got no repect for him!

[@Naeem_El]

Robd collector facts

[@dameonaquest7607]

Ya'll must not have seen Ray...

[@jaredpike1625]

Thank God I've been waiting for you to do this for years!

[@jonahda0mega]

Mister_ Geekz batman R.I.P storyline from grant Morrison

[@MrTreyshawn22]

Chumpion TV no shit jackass

[@JenniferMcMahonhawaii78]

I love the HBO Spawn series from the early 2000’s ... ITS AWESOME ...and I think its still available on HBO GO.

[@toren2099]

Jen McMahon and on youtube

[@Iwatchstuffallday]

Also on Amazon prime now

[@chrishill8952]

Yes! Image comics at long last!!! Todd Mcfarlane is my favorite artist! Please tell me you will do Sam & Twitch next. I love those guys

[@larrymarshall9593]

Chris Hill Todd is the goat

[@PHATDAWGEATS]

It was always between McFarlane and Jim Lee as the best comic book artists. J. Scott Campbell is a very close 3rd best in my opinion

[@OkamiSatsujin]

Over 10k views in under an hour for Spawn. Thanks for finally covering more about his character, but for people who know nothing about him and the world he resides in, this video doesn’t do it much justice. I get it, it’s a long run and kinda drawn out in places, but it helps in the overall scheme and style of the comic. Helps the reader to care about Al and his plight, even Sam and Twitch take center stage in order to be introduced. Still, happy that you started somewhere and hopefully that will start some interest and buzz for him online.

[@caciquecomics9728]

I've read those comic books a thousand times. I've seen retellings of this all over the internet, analisis, interpretations. Video reviews all over youtube. I thought I couldn't get anything new surrounding this storyline. But. Man. When you're a professional... Amazing job. I loved your explanation man.

[@sfgiants5486]

Spawn animated series on HBO was amazing.

[@ChrisfromDevelopment]

Finally Spawn! I mentioned this character to my gf over the weekend and she was like, “Spawn who?” Lol

[@bigsadge]

callmeslime time to break up

[@jonahda0mega]

callmeslime batman R.I.P storyline from grant Morrison

[@ChumpionTV]

2 years Ago he made the exact same video you idiot

[@factoryusa666]

Thank you Rob I really appreciate you for this video !!!🤙🤙🤙 I've been waiting YEARS

[@obitouchiha4320]

They should put spawn in mortal kombat coming out soon.

[@yaheard3918]

Obito Uchiha injustice 2

[@obitouchiha4320]

Ya Heard oo really cool..thanks

[@2473-l4b]

He in the new one now good call

[@z_monty]

Hey hey your wish came true

[@usevaseline-_-9309]

Your wish had been granted spawn is now a dlc

[@AlterRaigo]

Keep moving forward with Spawn please! The whole story is amazing! Oh and can I make a request since are we are talking about Image Comics...please make a series about Witchblade! Please! :)

[@blazedyasa]

I always felt Spawn was a cross between The 90s Ghost Rider and Dr Strange.

[@Connortheblueboy]

I know it would be a massive undertaking, but it would be really cool to see you do Chris Claremonts X-MEN run.

[@ChumpionTV]

connor dermon not enough clicks to be baited and too much work. Channel is dead.

[@smokescreen3211]

naw you sleep bro, he did that already

[@Echoforever92]

Rob I seriously need more of Spawn please continue with your crusade of enlightening the world on the beauty of all things spawn. Love your content keep it up.

[@bobbydeuce6486]

My mother never let me get spawn toys or comics because they were demonic looking. I never got to get into because of that and it’s one of the most interesting worlds I’ve ever seen. But now in this age of bingeing I can’t complain.

[@NomdePlume337]

Please do more Spawn videos. Spawn is what got back into comics as an adult and I love him so much

[@jamesd1477]

Anyone here after the Mk11 spawn gameplay trailer?

[@darthsoureagle9114]

Hades XII this guy

[@jinx8995]

same lmao

[@sanddry738]

My only introduction to spawn was the 2 seasons of the animated series. It was an interesting show and I did learn a bit but it definitely seems there’s a lot more to Spawn. Really interesting to learn more about this character so thanks for covering this!

[@kemonchapman4910]

Still waiting on a Hellblazer and or a John Constantine video ⏳

[@Midknight0122]

Rob continues to keep Vertigo at arms length, not sure why

[@kemonchapman4910]

Midknight0122 I wonder why? But does Hellblazer rebirth count as vertigo since it’s part of of all the rebirths

[@JediAcolyte94]

You can never go wrong with Spawn. I remember watching the 90s cartoon when i was younger. Always happy to see you diverge from Marvel and DC Rob. Hope to see you cover more non-DC/Marvel in the future, maybe Dark Horse Star Wars or more Spawn.

[@HablaConOwens]

Thanks for doing one on spawn!

[@jonahda0mega]

Ryan Owens batman R.I.P storyline from grant Morrison

[@121von]

Watching this again. I'm so happy to see you cover Spawn. I've been reading this comic for years and its so much history. Glad to see so many other people read this as well.

[@cringemaster5563]

Rob, I donated 20 bucks about 8 months ago and asked for more spawn content, thank you for finally getting it in! Also please make rob see this. Haha

[@SHEEMBA]

Thanks a lot for starting this series. Spawn is one of my favourite dark stories.

[@Ultinuc]

I'd like to propose a counter to your assertion that Spawn is the most popular non Marvel/DC comic property. Ninja Turtles. The TMNT are EASILY the most widely known and loved comic property that isn't out of the big two.

[@jiabryant533]

Well tmnt was more known as a cartoon then the comic series. Spawn on the other hand was more known as a comic.

[@seancheatham4025]

I think ninja turtles are D.C.

[@seancheatham4025]

Nevrmind

[@TheDangerbreed]

Didn't know TMNT was a comic

[@jashardwallington]

@@seancheatham4025 there mirage comics id aslo throw gi joe

[@royrogersmcfreely9551]

Dude ive been asking for spawn forever no other channel out there covers him, you can get a shit ton of subscribers for his stories cause they're really good

[@anthonyfanchin1144]

Spawn and Raven would have one HELL of a conversation.

[@elevated_engineering6515]

Thanks Rob. If I was getting DC/Marvel overload. I know you were. Needed this!

[@LUISPRIME]

Ah Spawn. I always like the character. It got too complicated after the loss of Angela and Coliostro characters rights and Spawn vanishing God and Satan and other recons.

[@WhyBother_357]

Keep It Up Big Bro..... I Learned ALOOT Watching Your Videos Not Much Of A Comic Reading But Your Break Things Down Perfect For Me To Jnderstand Timelines And Alternate Stories and/or Universes

[@thegorgeousgloriousone9851]

Please do more Spawn. There was soooo much potential and possibilities when Spawn first came out within the religious aspect alone, then there was the world building of a whole new comic universe. Then Supreme started and killed Thor in the first issue showing that other pantheons of gods existed. Man I was so into Spawn, may have to start picking it back up.

[@BlackJax125]

It took you almost a year but you finally listened to mine and many others request.

[@Lakefront_Khan]

KINGKOX125 I know first Ruins now Spawn although he probably made this in response to the new announcement

[@BlackJax125]

Kameron Dula Yea, IDK how to feel about Jamie Foxx as spawn. I really prefer micheal jai white.. But I'm just happy spawn will get his exposure once again.

[@towlie9428]

Prettttty sure it was because of the new casting choice but ok.

[@chlero_eyes]

It took another year to make part 2

[@xRBOGx]

Love that you are doing Image now. There are a bunch of great characters to cover. Please do more

[@wej6095]

More spawn please

[@robertoakes5117]

Please do more Spawn vids! Thanks for this one!!

[@kolbrez]

So Rob didn't mention is, that when Spawn was attempting to turn human looking and instead turning into the blond guy it was a result of the fact he cant turn his appearance to anything similar to his old appearance, a black man. and the reason why he couldn't have a daughter with his Wanda was because Al Simmons "shot blanks" if you know what i mean....

[@gustavocastrejon8763]

Shavar Stephens thnx man

[@DirtyBertie]

Matey was a Jaffa

[@corleonetoto2131]

Why that he saw himself white don’t make sense

[@corleonetoto2131]

He was never white senseless racist aspects what a black man his white inside come on now

[@davidmendez5933]

corleone Totô the white guy is actually another person, Jim Downing, that is connected to Al

[@samhobbs9116]

Yes! Finally. More Spawn stuff and I would love to hear you talk about 2000ad as well

[@jamescarter6468]

Do more of this please! And Angela and Chapel please.

[@TheInfamousWolf]

James Carter Dont forget the Darkness my friend!

[@anonoymoususer6417]

Dont forget about nyx and future cyan

[@DeathBringer769]

Spawn first issue was the first comic I ever bought as a kid back in the early 90s ;)

[@noaboahQR]

PLEASE ROB please more spawn. He the god damn best COVER ALL OF IT I BEG YOU

[@jonahda0mega]

Panshebar Mangos I'm trying to be noticed by the robcore about my request for about 4 years and running

[@towlie9428]

jonahda0mega You're fucking annoying. Every post you've commented

Please do Judge Dredd next.

[@xaviernelson4878]

Finally spawn stuff. I've been waiting for this for so long!

[@toneriggz]

Waited 20 years for Jamie Foxx to play Spawn. Nothnxm8

[@malaltherenegadegod]

Tone Riggz goddamn right m8

[@Taurus791]

Jamie Foxx is a dick and to old I dont like it.

[@sharp2257]

You sickin me with your lies

[@RimVader]

Michael B. Jordan is the man for the job now.

[@starstruck801]

That's why blacks dont get many roles that they cry about. People always want the same three black actors in every black role. Give B.Jordan a Break

[@Nyc_figure_fanatic]

Real happy you did this one, i would definitely like to see more image and or Valliant videos!

[@ichigokurosaki1081]

Jamie Foxx will make a horrible Al Simmons. They should've just continued the HBO animated series with Keith David. Mcfarlane said spawn wouldn't even be the main character in the movie, twitch William's is gonna have more screen time.

[@icijoh4670]

Ichigo Kurosaki I trust McFarlane.

[@ichigokurosaki1081]

NaHo Bush I dont. Not anymore

[@icijoh4670]

Damn too bad

[@TheInfamousWolf]

Ichigo Kurosaki Dude. The animated Tv Show was amazing. I wish it was never canceled.

[@MrTreyshawn22]

Ichigo Kurosaki and your facts to support that claim is ?

[@ultrainferno.]

Please do more Spawn all the way up to the apocalypse arc. Can't wait to see the movie.

[@Jeremifuctional]

I honestly thought Micheal Jai White was perfect as Spawn

[@augustusgaia1192]

thank you for doing this as well Rob! love it!

[@oblizkin1481]

*Michael B. Jordan as Spawn* 🔥

[@aravinda8689]

Loved the video. Please do more characters like Spawn who are not exactly mainstream but are totally Freakin Awesome!!

[@annievega2729]

Rob please do more transformers comics!

[@phillipmartinez2436]

Last stand of the wrekers would be pretty awesome for sure.

[@celex321]

FINALLY!!! IVE WAITED FOR THIS VIDEO every since you became comics explained! ( i be been watching since marvel and DC explained where a thing....) Finally my day has come!!! Lol.

[@blueclevername4900]

Why did you skip all of the most interesting bits about spawn (in my oppinion) The power reserve indicator that was so core to the character in the beginning (though that fell off) the whole black guy but can only become a white guy joke ... just seems like you missed some of the things that made spawn unique.

[@asssassyn]

Blue Clevername He does this often with a lot of characters and stories.

[@NavySharkz]

Yup. And looking at your avatar now I also want Rob to do an Evil Ernie video. I love Smiley the button :-D

[@nicholasmcmorrisdaye149]

Okay Rob! sooo hype that you're doing spawn right now cuz he is my absolute favorite comic book character. He can do every and anything his only limitation is his mind and also he became God give his God powers and became human again

[@muhlestermoon6436]

Amen!

[@muhlestermoon6436]

jonahda0mega brother...same here! And I absolutely agree. We need more SPAWN specially cuz with this video, it actually made me eager to revisit the character.

[@parfner666]

Love these comics. Still have the series as it came with the toys also. Violater was my favorite because it was a stretchy toy. And Clown had a spinning head

[@britshell]

TMNT is way more popular than Spawn and they were independent.

[@michaeljackson4538]

They are not more popular then Spawn in comics moron. Spawn sold like hot cakes in the 90's

[@anonoymoususer6417]

TMNT was popular because of the cartoon

[@crhis12000]

@ComicsExplained Please do more spawn videos he's one of my favorite characters!!!

Been waiting a long time for you to do this! Thank you!!!

Love the Spawn series! Please do more of these!!!!

[@proffesionalidiot5994]

I don’t read many comics and your channel makes me really want to. Nice on ya rob. Also can you or someone else tell me how squirrel girl beat basically everyone. The fact that that has happened breaks my mind into a rage.

[@GianniEndo]

This was a long time coming Rob, been waiting for some spawn videos. Keep up the good word 👍 And I'm sure the new spawn movie will be great, I'm sure as hell going to watch it.

[@janeogunmokun6561]

YEEEES. More Spawn content, please. Excellent video,

[@GamingSinz]

just this past weekend while selling my merchandise at a small comic con, i traded a couple hoodies for a set of spawn issues 1-10 all in super great conditions. spawn has always been a interest of mine but never got any of the comics. now this set is my very first comic ever and i read all 10 in one night lol. now i have a new obsession lmao

[@artifexcaptus]

Please make a part 2 of this and maybe even 3 and 4!

[@ichigokurosaki1081]

[@OuterHeaven.92]

I really wish Rob would continue doing Spawn videos. I just love Spawn.

[@purpose808]
