The first book - By: , 30 Jul 2004 
This is infact a reprint collectors edition of the first volume of spawn, it is a shame that someone has spoilt a lot of the later storyline in their review.
Spawn is one of the greatest comics i have ever read, i bought this a while back & wasnt dissapointed, unfortunately the second volume is very hard to come by & i have not yet been able to get it.
If you have any interest in comics then read this! If you dont... then still read it, its awesome, nothing like many of the cheesy superhero comics usuallly created by marvel
well worth buying - By: stokeslot@aol.com, 07 Jun 2002 Spawn :Retribution was the first Spawn book i ever read & I immediately found myself sucked in to this dark & addictive series.this is a collection of moral tales which feaure spawn as a background figure; it explains just enough to understand the background of what's going on & sets the range for spawn to find his moral footing. it also introduces 'the curse', another psycho for spawn's galllery of enemies. After a pear shaped beginning, Spawn begins to realise that he's nothing but a pawn in the games of heaen & hell, & rwalises that he can use his powers to the advantage of others, not just himself. what follows is a moving trek home, & an account of the lives he effects on his way, as well as an insight into his constant torture.
Rebirth of Billy - By: , 31 Mar 2002 
For those who aren't familiar with Spawn this is not the best place to start as it is late in the series, but it is definately one of most memorable to fans. Acension eventuallly signals the return of one of the first "bad guys" Spawn encounters, back in Spawn 5, Billy Kincaid. Billy Kincaid was a child molestor who managed to avoid the Law but Spawn eventuallly introduced his pancreas to an icecream scoop (see Spawn 5). In Acension he returns more evil than ever with the power to turn the normal person into a crazy murderer.
As a Spawn Fan I loved this book as it is a compelling piece in Spawns understanding of what he must do to save humanity. I'd recommend this to Spawn fans & new-comers to the series alike, unlike past Spawn Compilations the story is not so complicated.

Excellent, Amazing and Fantastic Detail on The Drawings - By: whassupaj@hotmail.com, 01 Sep 2001 The Story is amazing, I've been a collecter of comics & I find this fantastic. Spawn Collecters, this is a must have Graphic Novel!!!!!!
Another classic from the dark pit that is mcfarlanes mind - By: , 23 Mar 2001 Yet another gripping novel in the Spawn series although previous reading of others in the series is required to understand just what is going on. We are once again dragged into the torture that is Spawns life with only the homeless vagrents & the scum of the earth to keep him company, that is with the exception of Cogliostro telling what to do & what not to do & confusing the man formerly known as Al Simmons more than ever. This is a book that belongs on the shelf of any Spawn fan, preferably nestling comfortably inbetween its predecessor & its follower.
