Spawn #309B, Todd McFarlane Cover, Image '20

KEY ISSUE: Spawn #309 features the first appearance of the new Gunslinger Spawn. "Consequence of Sin" Part 2 expands the post-#300 Spawn Universe as Al Simmons and his growing team — She-Spawn and the Reaper — continue tracking down Spawns from other dimensions. The issue's standout moment arrives when longtime ally Cogliostro turns on Simmons and reveals his deadly new recruit: Gunslinger Spawn. The introduction drove a 25% sales increase over the previous issue and sent #309 to a second printing — a rare feat for a mid-run Spawn issue. Written by Todd McFarlane with art by Ken Lashley, who brings a kinetic, horror-inflected energy to the expanding Spawn mythology. This copy features the Todd McFarlane Cover B variant.
