Synopsis

Ken Kurosawa, also known, unfortunately, as Double K. Ken is a savvy street thug with a heart of gold. While he may be a crook, all his earnings go to caring for his ailing sister, Mariko. But Ken's rubbed the wrong people the wrong way and dies rather horrifically in a car bomb. As with Al Simmons, who is referenced several times in this first volume, Double K makes a deal with the devil. He'll trade his soul just to be with his sister again. As with any deal with such nefarious creatures, Ken finds himself "alive" again seven years later. Dressed in a bizarre costume and sporting incredible power, Ken has a new role to fulfill, that of a Hellspawn. A number of questions are raised about Double K's purpose as a Hellspawn and the possible redemption of the wicked. But like the original Spawn the questions are left unanswered in favor of action and comedy.

Spawn is one of my favorite franchises of all time. I have been reading it for 4 years now and I am still only 210 out of the current ~370 issues in. I have probably spent over 100 hours reading the comic, reading the side stories like Gunslinger Spawn, The Scorched, King Spawn, Spawn and Witchblade, watching the 18 episode 1997 HBO masterpiece that was a great introduction to the comic, despite being very different, and the only cartoon I know of that is darker and grimmer in tone than anime Japanese anime I've ever seen - Corpse Party, Elfen Lied, Death Note, Perfect Blue ...
