Based on Todd McFarlane’s landmark comic book, Spawn follows Al Simmons, a murdered
government assassin who returns from Hell as
a reluctant soldier in a cosmic war between
good and evil. Dark, morally complex, and
visually groundbreaking, the series redefined
what adult animation could achieve and remains
a touchstone of prestige animation.
