Top 50 IMPOSSIBLE To FIND Spawn Comic Books

[@mikebeer1567]

I used to work for the company in Ottawa Canada that prepared the files and color separations for the first hundred or so copies of spawn plus all the packaging, I have a 1 of 20 action figure Todd made just for us.

[@michaelbaker8375]

Thank you so much for this video, I've been waiting to see this list of Spawn books for a long time now...trying to collect a complete Spawn run is a lifetime grail run with books this rare, almost impossible to ever do it.

[@ComicBookInvestments]

Thanks. Ya I spent nearly 50 hours on this video lol 😂 but ya I want to complete a spawn run eventually too

[@breakbeatz309]

Loved the video. It was a great format to quickly display the books and toss in some some Spawn trivia too.

[@ComicBookInvestments]

Awesome, thank you! ya I spent alot of time on this video

[@robcook8456]

Dave..I watch pretty much all of your videos and this has been my favourite so far. The edit and the pacing is spot on and I really enjoyed all the fun facts. Would love to see you make videos like this for other characters. Thanks for all your great content.

[@ComicBookInvestments]

Thanks. Ya this was a lot of work. Been working on this video for months. I’m glad people appreciate it. I’ll try to do more. But it was a lot of work to do. But I’ll probably be faster now that I know what I need to do next time

[@gamesyncc4831]

Great video! I mainly only collect spawn comics and this is so helpful! I didn't even know some of these existed.I'll be using this as a guide pretty much forever. Thanks for the video!

[@EverythingWicked-db7qh]

What a great video! I absolutely love Spawn! I had so many of these books but in 2001 I had a house fire and lost it all! In the past few years I have slowly started to get a collection back together, but for many years I had no drive to collect again sadly. I had tens of thousands of books and cards, just so many rares amd I had all mint books too. I took care of everything very well. Thanks for sharing!!

[@gamingdekap]

I just went through my small collection yesterday and I have a mint 227 sketch variant. Not a Spawn fan. Dont own any other Spawn stuff Only bought it because I thought it would look good with my ASM 300. Completely forgot I had it but 6:00 sure did make my balls tingle.

Very well done Dave. Plenty of info and I enjoyed it all. Thanks for posting. I never kept up with Spawn though I did buy the first few issues when it came out. All I have left are #1 and #4 signed by Todd at FAO Schwarts toy store in NYC back in 1994. Best.

Amazing video. I'm a big Spawn collector but I don't consider the Dave Sim ones to be "Spawn" variants, we all know the story behind them but they're not published by McFarlane. As for the 306 MK variant, fun fact: last month on the Spawn subreddit there was a guy who worked at Netherrealms who posted a photo of a big stack of these on a coffee table - the NR studio management just put them up for employees to grab for free. So clearly they didn't destroy lots of these. So this employee grabbed more than two dozens of them and was trying to sell them via PM for $2000 each. I expect a rash of new census entries very soon.

[@bakermichael777]

You were right!! Just saw a pile of 9.8s sell on eBay all at once the other day. Some dude selling like 10 of them

[@ghostknight1865]

Yep, and someone was selling around 70 non-graded ones. I'm glad I never jumped at this, in fact this whole debacle is the reason I'm getting out of the graded and variant comics scams. It's all a grift.@@bakermichael777

[@MarkJackson-ux2uf]

I tend to fall the other way in regard to Spawn 10. It’s a Dave Sim variant and the fact it’s not published by McFarlane makes it even more of a rarity. This was only possible due to the two writers’ original agreement on the crossover allowing for Sim to reprint Spawn 10.

Pretty sure my nearest hole in the wall comic shop has the Spawn #1 Black Ink Error Variant. I stopped by the other day to pick up Spawn 330 black blank, and saw it Spawn 1 graded (either 9.2 or 9.4) on the wall behind the counter for $4,500. Talked to the guy and he let me hold it. I had no clue about the error variant, so I’m I thought he was just a super fan with an WAY overpriced issue 1. He said something about black ink and I was like “eh” sure dude…but now I know! Now I’m considering making him an offer for it.

[@michaelharness3258]

Question. Is the capital collection book still valuable. And rare?

[@barrygingell5600]

Great list. Thanks so much for doing this. Isn't the Spawn 3D MOCCA meant to be quite rare also?

[@marky1221]

Regie collects did a show on the Mocca variant. 500 print run with 100 damaged. This was verified by mocca director. Leaving only 400 viable copies. so in my opinion that makes the book scarce.

[@barrygingell5600]

@@marky1221 I would love to get one signed and graded but the ones I got certainly aren't 9.8's. Also, getting stuff to the U.S from the U.K does make these signings more difficult I imagine. Truthfully I have never tried it, but I would like to.

[@marky1221]

@@barrygingell5600 I've only done one signing with CGC and it was for mcfarlane. It went well and the press pushed my book to a 9.8. So I definitely will do it again. My one spawn 3d copy has a spine tick from hell. My other copy looks to be a 9.4 or higher, but I can't grade so I leave that to the graders.... I'd say that if the opportunity presents itself, you should try for it. Even if your copies aren't mint, it's not like there are that many copies roaming around out there.

@Comic Book Investments a few years back I started going after the newsstands and that's where I have stayed selling a large portion of my direct copies to fund the hunt for newsstands. There is an error comic that didn't make your list but finding the actual numbers would be very tricky. It's a Spawn 9 newsstand with the poster inside. Newsstand copies didn't get the poster inside, other then number 1. For some reason there were a few issue 9s that had the direct poster inserted into the newsstand. I don't have a copy but I do know there have been a couple sent into CGC.
