    Spawn (Simmons)

    Character » Spawn (Simmons) appears in 1427 issues.

    A highly trained assassin, murdered by his employer and former friend Chapel. Albert ''Al'' Francis Simmons sold his soul to Malebolgia, one of the many rulers of the Hell, in order to see his wife Wanda Blake again.

After realizing what he had lost, Al swore revenge, and became the vigilante known as Spawn.

    Hey i've read some of the first spawn issues (issue 1 up to 10 i believe) but i find it a little silly.

    Spawn getting drunk and singing the Flintstones intro, Spawn admitting he will miss those tramps (in a weird way).

    Not really the spawn i loved from the movie and the toon.

    I was expecting him to be more... cocky, silent and kinda a bastard instead of a silly person.

    Will this change or should i stop reading if i dont like it now?

    You're reading a series that has spanned years and years and what those movies and toons were based off of in the first place and you're basing things off 10 issues? Read it anyway.

    Well ofcourse im basing it of 10 issues, if i get the impression that its silly then i get the impression that its silly.

    So all i wanted to know is if it gets more serious... not that big a deal?

    It's not a big deal. My last response was answering your question about the series. Yes, it does get more serious.

    Read man. You've barely gotten into the story and Simmons is still coming to grips with his new situation. It gets much muct more serious as the series progresses.
