Hellspawn Spawny Attends Comic Con In Todd McFarlane Productions’ Upcoming “Spawn Kills Every Spawn” This July

Posted on by

Spawn-Kills-Every-SpawnTodd McFarlane Productions and Image Comics will bring fan-favorite “Baby-Spawn” character ‘Spawny’ back to shelves in an action-packed, five-issue miniseries, Spawn Kills Every Spawn launching in July.

Written by John Layman (Chew) and illustrated by Rob “Sketchcraft” Duenas, with colors by Robert Nugent, this bold story brings a hilarious-yet-deadly twist to the world of Spawn.

In Spawn Kills Every Spawn, the character baby of ‘Spawny’ attends Spawn-Con, a convention filled with various Spawns from across the Spawn Universe. Unfortunately for Spawny, he discovers that he’s not even close to being the most popular Hellspawn. Instead, he’s the least liked among that group. To battle his identity crisis, Spawny decides to take drastic action: KILL THEM ALL! What follows is a darkly comedic, action-packed adventure that explores the insanity of a convention full of Hellspawn, and the lengths one very sensitive Spawn will go to in his quest to gain fame and recognition.

Posted on by

Robot-DreamsFilm Forum is set to present the US theatrical premiere of Pablo Berger’s “Robot Dreams”, a NEON release, on Friday, May 31.

Metal Warrior Premieres “Scream Love” Video

Posted on by

Metal WarriorFollowing up the smash anthem “The Battle Will Be Won” released February 9th, esteemed intergalactic band Metal Warrior drops their newest single “Scream Love.” The new song commemorates the day singer and guitarist Queen Va’s home planet of Barabartok abolished the so-called Law Against Love.
