Spawn Book Club - Issues 67 | 68 | 69 - Jun. 1st, 2014 - Jun. 7th, 2014

The less you want it, the more I've got. Spawn Book Club!

I've been catching up quickly, have you? Some of these upcoming issues are some of my favourites from my childhood! Pretty stoked to get into this little arc in particular. Fond memories... fond memories.

Anyway, on a personal note, you'll have to forgive any tardiness on my part in getting these book club posts up. I'm going away on a little trip, and while I'll certainly find access to a computer, I'm not sure when. But rest assured, all you loyal book clubbers, it'll be here.

As usual, watch out for spoilers below and grab the .cbr's while you can if you're following along digitally!

Let's do this.

What we're reading this week:

Issue 67 - Homeland

• The bums gather to commiserate on their lives and share stories and philosophies about their religious beliefs. Spawn diplomatically joins into the conversation and avoids heating the age old debate of God versus the Devil. Later, in another part of the alley, a gang of bums plot to rob and kill one of their own. When Spawn steps in to question their motives, they open fire on him. He collapses, wondering why his costume isn't defending him against this assault.

Issue 68 - Intersection

• Sam and Twitch are called to the home of their client, Mrs. Byrd, whose husband has been murdered. As they drive away, puzzling over the scene of the crime, Cog mysteriously appears in the back seat of the '55 Chevy and asks them to help Spawn. Meanwhile, back in the alley, Spawn's murderer bags up the necroplasm as evidence of his death and takes it to his boss, the Freak. When the bums hear of their protector's demise, the battle for the alley begins.

Issue 69 - Freaky

• Sam and Twitch discover the remains of Spawn, crucified and headless in a deep alley. When they attempt to remove the body, they find themselves between warring alley gangs. Just as Sam and Twitch gain control of the angry mass, the Freak takes Twitch hostage. During negotiations over the alley turf and Twitch's life, the worms, maggots, rats and flies revive their necroplasmic master.
