I feel like a big part of Capullo's success is Danny Miki's inking. This was really apparent in Capullo's current Batman run. Comparing Court of Owls and even Death of the Family to Zero Year and Endgame, is almost night and day. It also helps that FCO got to shine and display those brilliant colors in Zero Year. The trio of Capullo, Miki and FCO is almost unrivaled in comic book art though.
I actually like the venom mouth on spawn it makes him look more menacing and intimidating Also it matches up due to the fact that spawn is a demon from hell, so he's gonna have a monster-like face. But overall in my opinion I think it looks badass!
It started with one video, next thing you know I found a new addiction to these videos, now I'm digging through old boxes to find some old comics to read
I used to love Spawn as a kid. The HBO series was sick as hell too. I haven't read the comics in a very long time though. I can't believe it's still around.
Marvin Merklin Remake the movie was soo shit it was like u know how spawn hates the suit ? well 2 scenes from he gets the suit he says I LIKE THIS i was about to get a mild stroke when i heard that
KB Toys, man what a blast from the past. As a 34 year old I remember KB fondly and Batman/Spawn crossover was classic. Except for Batman calling Spawn "boy" I'm like, do you not know Spawn will kill you Batman. Show some respect.
I like the classic the best, then the all black but not a lot done to it. Spawn is one of my favorite hero's. The only one I really did not care for is when they gave him the big boot and things like that. Great episode man
When I was a teenager McFarland was it. He's, without a doubt, the main reason I still read comics today in my 40s. That being said: when Capullo first took over the penciling duties for Spawn, not only was it the end of the world in my teenage brain but he was at the end of my list on who I would've chosen to replace McFarland with. Today, Capullo is probably in the top 3 comic artist working today. I can't think of a single artist in the industry who's improved so dramatically. I might even go as far as to say (gasp) that he's now better then McFarland.
you forgot the spawn:simony version which is the original spawn, Al but in france which to me was the best spawn look and would have probably influence spawn's new looks
I know Deathstroke had only a few changes to his character but the art for him changed dramatically since the 80's and his art changes again in upcoming rebirth. I was wondering if you could do that for one of your videos in the near future.
1:08 Yup, that's where I got Medieval Spawn and Spiky Spawn (can't remember the figures actual name, it wasn't one in a suit but more visceral, Geiger-esque). Edit: Oh... He... He talks about him. :|
If Spawn's arm were cut off couldn't he just remanifest it or connect it back to his body with his necroplasm. The necroplasm's abilities could depend on where he's at, such as when he's in the realm of Hell that Malebolgia is in he could siphon more powers but he may have to have a special type of status with that realm of Hell depending on what level of power he can siphon and what for. I haven't read enough of the comics to where he's probably visited a lot of different realms of Hell, and I haven't read if his abilities changed depending on the region. If Spawn got a huge gnash on his face then couldn't he just heal it with necroplasm. If he was being taught by Cog at the time, Cog may have told him to use the necroplasm sparingly so that Spawn wouldn't gain a dependency on it. Cog only had a bit of necroplasm yet because he freed himself of the Hellspawn curse, and he never uses it. As long as he has a bit of necroplasm he remains immortal, and has enough abilities without using it. I don't know if the original Spawn was still a force after Malebolgia was defeated, or who defeated Malebolgia, but if it was the original Spawn that did so then maybe Spawn got more abilities to have less restrictions of his necroplasm allotment in the realms of Hell depending on which realm. He had to go against other powerful foes that matched or were more powerful than Malebolgia after Malebolgia was gone, or one of the other Spawns did.
What i always thought was cool is when how his masked hid the pain in his face the new ones open mouth is weird because it doesn't give the blank face raging eyes anymore
+Hektor fernandez Yeah a lot of similarities because he drew Venom and wrote I think Issue 250 or 300 for The Amazing Spider-Man. Also like @Everrette Bradfute is Spider-Man was what made Todd famous for his drawings of him. He is and amazing artist along with Greg Capullo,Sam Keith,Frank Miller are my favorite artist with many others but those are my favorite. I just hope they do another Spawn movie a legit one just like how the HBO Spawn followed the comics to a T! Also Keith Richards as the voice was amazing and a perfect fit for Spawn no wonder it won 2 Emmy's. I have heard talks about a future Spawn movie, (fingers crossed) so we will see I'am 32 and I bought Spawn issue #1 when it came out. So been a huge fan since day 1. It got me into comics so thank you Todd McFarlane and Image Comics still my favorite comic book character and company to this day. Also loving the new Image comic Renato Jones One%.
+VariantComics could you add a bit more time on the pictures of the characters in future videos couse I was trying to keep up with the info and the look at the same time and I couldn't process
i love spawn i love the design of him but the new design that gives him a mouth makes him look like a monster more then a human like the classic alot the one in the Tv series is amazing looking too
I'm not a fan of the mouth on Spawn but I do respect him trying to convey his own take on the character. I grew up with Capulo's version and have always liked it. Anybody recomend a place where i can catch up old Spawn comics (death of Al and wings of redenption Spawn)?
The Art Of Batman (this should be a thing)
M7MAD520 Can't wait for that. It will be a 50 minute video.
+VariantComics Please do the art of Jhonny Blaze ghost rider. It would be awesome
VariantComics where is it
I feel like a big part of Capullo's success is Danny Miki's inking. This was really apparent in Capullo's current Batman run. Comparing Court of Owls and even Death of the Family to Zero Year and Endgame, is almost night and day. It also helps that FCO got to shine and display those brilliant colors in Zero Year. The trio of Capullo, Miki and FCO is almost unrivaled in comic book art though.
Drawing a costume as intricate as spawn most be hell lol
Yes it is.. I did my first spawn art last night. Was hell
I actually like the venom mouth on spawn it makes him look more menacing and intimidating
Also it matches up due to the fact that spawn is a demon from hell, so he's gonna have a monster-like face.
But overall in my opinion I think it looks badass!
You are awesome Mr. Quinones
I second that statement
I Third it
I fourth it
I hex it!
It started with one video, next thing you know I found a new addiction to these videos, now I'm digging through old boxes to find some old comics to read
You NEED to do "The Art of Spider-Man"
I don't think we need that
I used to love Spawn as a kid. The HBO series was sick as hell too. I haven't read the comics in a very long time though. I can't believe it's still around.
Since you did Todd McFarlane's creation, how about the character that help build his name. Spider-man
Everette Bradfute Thing is though with Spider-man the costume has barely changed over the years so there probably wouldn't be much to cover
Ah but do you know about the mysterous bagman costume?
Spider-man wore the bag head costume, because he wasn't accepted into the fantastic four, right,
Future foundation, variants on the black and red costumes, iron spider, civil war spider man superior, miles morales
Everette Bradfute And there has been many different artists for him. I think An art of Spider-man would be good.
Just reboot the damn movie already
I THINK you mean remake, kid.
Marvin Merklin Remake the movie was soo shit it was like u know how spawn hates the suit ? well 2 scenes from he gets the suit he says I LIKE THIS i was about to get a mild stroke when i heard that
Lucas Gabriel Same thing...kinda
+Marvin Merklin Agreed.
+Marvin Merklin
I approve your comment.
This is certainly one of my favorite videos from you. Thank you so much for this. I loved the interview.
KB Toys, man what a blast from the past. As a 34 year old I remember KB fondly and Batman/Spawn crossover was classic. Except for Batman calling Spawn "boy" I'm like, do you not know Spawn will kill you Batman. Show some respect.
The new look just looks like a Venom without a cape and without the muscles.
Venom doesn't use a cape
Chinboy Your comment looks like stupid comment.
CRCKFRMR That's why he said "Venom with out a cape"
my bad, the Venom looks like the new spawn without a cape.
3:36 my wallpaper /favorite
The HBO series version of spawn is my favorite.
I know that artist JONBOY he is an awesome guy!
The Art of Superman.
***** The Art of Iron Man. He evolved very mutch, right?^^ Good video, would like to see a history of spawn as well.
*****
Thanks :)
Bass Lightyeah He already made a history of spawn.
***** Oh, sorry Rorschach. Don't kill me.
Bass Lightyeah Hurm...
I love this artist interview
the buy list helps a lot for beginners readers like me, thank you
Variant you should have your own tv show i would totally watch it
why i loved the spawn work is how flexible the character is they can mgive him mostly about everything..
I like the classic the best, then the all black but not a lot done to it. Spawn is one of my favorite hero's. The only one I really did not care for is when they gave him the big boot and things like that. Great episode man
So sad he didn't stick around longer, loved his style.
Greg capullo is one of my favorite if not my favorite comic artist of all time
Spawn! My favorite hero, straight up bad ass. Great vid
First Artist Alley and now Art Of? You're on a role Arris!
It’s only right spawn is done first for anything! He started it all paved a way! Do a top 10 spawns
That moment when you realize you are one of the first people in the comment section, but you have no crrativity....
When you realize you cant spell creativity
63JackBlack that moment you realize you forgot to mention that english is not your mother language and you forgot to say " sorry for my bad english"
63JackBlack that moment when grammar police comes in
Awesome, Spawn was created the same year I was born!
Can't wait for more videos like this! Best variant video so far!
When I was a teenager McFarland was it. He's, without a doubt, the main reason I still read comics today in my 40s. That being said: when Capullo first took over the penciling duties for Spawn, not only was it the end of the world in my teenage brain but he was at the end of my list on who I would've chosen to replace McFarland with. Today, Capullo is probably in the top 3 comic artist working today. I can't think of a single artist in the industry who's improved so dramatically. I might even go as far as to say (gasp) that he's now better then McFarland.
Fingers tightly crossed for those prints
I really want an update to this as the spawn Dark Horror story line was my favorite of all.
I love the art in all Spawn comics. Spawn is tied with Batman for my favorite comic character of all time
Best ones are the OG and the one where he first appears with the big boot and gaunlet
you forgot the spawn:simony version which is the original spawn, Al but in france which to me was the best spawn look and would have probably influence spawn's new looks
I know Deathstroke had only a few changes to his character but the art for him changed dramatically since the 80's and his art changes again in upcoming rebirth. I was wondering if you could do that for one of your videos in the near future.
Have you seen the spawn vs kratos death battle? Its so absurdly awesome!!!! As well as the deadpool vs deathstroke death battle
Ah, K.B. Toys, I haven't heard that name in years! Also, my wife is a Quiñones (from Argentina)!
So cool that even after nearly 30 years Spawn is still figuring out his powers.
Jason Sean Alexander's Spawn is my favorite for sure
This the content that sustains me.
Venom would be awesome to see the evolution of Eddie Brock to Flash Thompson and seeing Anti venom would be cool too.
I want this segment back
man the art that lookedl ike venom was lit
history of the most underrated and unknown comic book character of all the..... HECKLER!
Done and Done sir.
awesome that you snagged an interview for this one!
Is there anywhere I can read Spawn comics on the internet for free? I really got into him watching the tv show years ago.
Bane391 Torrents, my friend. Torrents.
David Nguyen Wow just had a quick look and it seems to have everything! Thank you.
Oh that was nothing
***** Well, yeah, but we don't really have comicbook shops in Romania ;d
Dan Spataru same in Poland.
Dude KB Toys holy shit
I just purchased Spawn #1 too! (:
Honestly i thing that the new rendition of Spawn looks like a pimped out Venom with a bad-ass demon cape.
1:08 Yup, that's where I got Medieval Spawn and Spiky Spawn (can't remember the figures actual name, it wasn't one in a suit but more visceral, Geiger-esque). Edit: Oh... He... He talks about him. :|
Spawn is really really cool

what about the godspawn
Art of "Y: The Last Man", "Crossed" and "Hellblazer"
I will watch it all, ooooh.
A Doctor Strange one would be really cool, a lot of people forget how many changes he has really gone through!
History of the court of the owls
DO MORE OF THESE!!!
What i always thought was cool is when how his masked hid the pain in his face the new ones open mouth is weird because it doesn't give the blank face raging eyes anymore
Great video, Arres! Spawn is one of my favorite characters!!!
You should do The Art of Green lantern for his 75th anniversary next month
awesome! do more of these Art of videos! It'll be cool if you did an aquaman episode
My man, Arris!
What an amazing concept !! Would be amazing if you could do it for Daredevil and/or Spider Man
Awesome interview!!!
Art of Flash !!!!
Maybe Variant could do the art of Nightwing? He's had a few different costumes that would be neat to talk about.
I always thought that big elephant boot was dope.
Great video. I loved it.
I was looking for this
Your video is appreciated.
ARRIS GREAT IDEA FOR A VIDEO, I love the "art of" videos
I'd like to see the top 10 most powerful Superman villains (or just the top 10 best ones you decide)
Spawn is like a mix of venom, ghost rider, and superman,
Mad comics made a joke about it before, saying he was a ripoff of all of them. He even took Dr. Strange's cape.
Yes, more of this! *Claps*
Can we get more art of I love it
Art of Wolverine would be great!
Art of nightwing, hes had so many suits
do more stuff like this!
I feel like spawns design is based heavily off of venom. The eyes, face, symbiote suit, body, etc.
Best channel ever
+VariantComics you didnt mention Chrononauts by Mark Miller
spawn looks like venom with a cape and arris quinones looks like a human hamster
+Hektor fernandez Yeah a lot of similarities because he drew Venom and wrote I think Issue 250 or 300 for The Amazing Spider-Man. Also like @Everrette Bradfute is Spider-Man was what made Todd famous for his drawings of him.

Also Keith Richards as the voice was amazing and a perfect fit for Spawn no wonder it won 2 Emmy's. I have heard talks about a future Spawn movie, (fingers crossed) so we will see I'am 32 and I bought Spawn issue #1 when it came out. So been a huge fan since day 1. It got me into comics so thank you Todd McFarlane and Image Comics still my favorite comic book character and company to this day. Also loving the new Image comic Renato Jones One%.
Spawn is the best character Todd Macfarlene has worked on.
Dude capullo really has nice work cyber force by marc silvestri was coolyoungblood sucked i think i was into save dragon by erik larsen as well
Do Spiderman!
Can we get a episode dealing with The KORVAC SAGA! he was one of the most powerful being's in the Universe
spawn is just so fucking cool
I LOVE "Art of.."!!
Same
Is this the only Art of episode that Arris did? I can't think of any other characters he's covered
+VariantComics could you add a bit more time on the pictures of the characters in future videos couse I was trying to keep up with the info and the look at the same time and I couldn't process
KBs good times 😃
i love spawn i love the design of him but the new design that gives him a mouth makes him look like a monster more then a human like the classic alot the one in the Tv series is amazing looking too
God bless Spawn
that Spider-Man is killer, I would love to win it but I don't have Twitter
Cool
If Spawn gets in Mortal Kombat 11, two things need to happen.
1. Keith David needs to voice him.
2. Meyers Spawn needs to be his main look.
I'm not a fan of the mouth on Spawn but I do respect him trying to convey his own take on the character. I grew up with Capulo's version and have always liked it.
Anybody recomend a place where i can catch up old Spawn comics (death of Al and wings of redenption Spawn)?
Do you have the comixology app
No I do not. You recommend it?
+MotivatedResults I do, its good.
YEES
Im hoping their gonna do a remake soon
Its been 1992 it was released
art of Ghost Rider
