Spawn #3 – NM – Direct Edition – 1992 (Image)

NM — Bagged and boarded.

Two landmark moments in one issue — Spawn's first confrontation with his wife five years after his death delivers the emotional gut punch the series had been building toward, while Spawn vs. the Violator erupts into the brutal clash fans were waiting for. McFarlane at his most raw and kinetic, firing on all creative cylinders in the series' crucial early arc.
