Been waiting forever for Book 10. It's pissing me off with this loafting.
Is Al Simmons bak yet?
Mark my words... he won't come back til either 250 or 300.
The August 2014 Solicits are out and we have a look at Spawn 246.
SPAWN #246
story: TODD MCFARLANE
art: SZYMON KUDRANSKI
cover: SZYMON KUDRANSKI & TODD MCFARLANE
AUGUST 6 / 32 PAGES / FC / T+ / $2.99
An unthinkable act takes place in Sara’s apartment. Meanwhile, Marc learns Jim’s dark secret.
Todd always delivers on the covers. Is that Hell?
Also, the latest ish was enjoyable. I figured we
'd get 2.4 seconds worth of Violator. Whatever. I loved how Spawn was carving his face up.
Well while we don't have a preview for Spawn #244, out tomorrow, we do have a cover for you all to keep an eye out for.
Catching up on the latest two issues of Spawn.
243 - Okay issue as Jim finds out the Feds are looking into him and he does his search for Sara. Smart use of the Dead Zone to revert Violator back to Clown (even though it robs us of a fight), though I question why he didn't go and ask Cog. It seemed like they just parted ways and I would think Jim would ask him of all people instead of antagonizing Twitch and Bludd to end up at Clown. Glad Sam's all better now though.
244 - Jim saves Sara end of issue. Thats pretty much it. I take it the team needed a vacation because of how little content is here. This issue was flat out horrible. We are robbed of the actual reason why Clown kidnapped Sara (seriously they fast forward that part) so why should I care that this even happened? The 2/3rds of the remaining issue is Jim in the dark, which doesn't make for anything exciting since we are treated to multiple pages of black panels of nothing and imagining of a fight we can't see or at least get glimpses of (kinda reminds me of the recent Godzilla film), searching for Sara and bumping into some odd creatures that we get no background on but more than likely we'll get several months down the line or never. Never mind the fact that this could have been used to follow up on the Old Guard stuck in the dark, this entire issue could have been done in a 1/3rd of the page count. I'll be putting this series on ice and catch up when 250 comes out.

Yeah 244 was a bust.
Jim locates Sara. Jim goes to Sara. Jim and Sara escape. 20 pages. Most of 'em black. #sigh.
