Spawn #197Media Release -- Spawn: Endgame Volume 2 features the monumental story arc that rocked the Spawn universe to its core. Helmed by award-winning Spawn creator, Todd McFarlane, and joined by all-star artists Whilce Portacio (WetWorks, Batman Confidential) and Greg Capullo (Spawn, The Creech, Haunt), this milestone in the Spawn saga re-imagines the classic character as only Spawn's creator Todd McFarlane can.

Al Simmons' death raised more questions than it answered -- especially for Jim Downing. After a long journey searching for an explanation to his extraordinary powers, Jim learns he is a true Spawn. With no recollection of his life prior to his coma, Jim is challenged with filling in the gaps to his jumbled past. While answers don't come easy, they DO come in this revelatory collection.

Exclusive bonus content includes color and black and white cover galleries, and behind-the-scenes art. This trade paperback has also been re-mastered to include additional story elements never-before seen in the original printing.
