Spawn #285

We're getting somewhere, but we're not there just yet; McFarlane's script is interesting and gives readers good reason to continue reading, but this story is a slow-burn and may not work for readers that are hungry for action.

In a weird twist, my favorite part of the entire chapter beyond the art was the brief profile they showed for Spawn. They rarely bring it up but it was nice to see them remind us just how tall and heavy Spawn is in reality. Read Full Review

"Spawn" #285 is an overall effective man in a box issue with effective and textured artwork, that is weakened by how it uses narration at points. Read Full Review

Honestly just a boring issue, but mildly interesting. The story moves pretty slow but obviously it's getting somewhere and it'll pick up soon. And of course, great artwork
