About the author
Todd McFarlane
1,903 books449 followersTodd McFarlane is a Canadian comic book artist, writer, toy manufacturer/designer, and media entrepreneur who is best known as the creator of the epic occult fantasy series Spawn.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, McFarlane became a comic book superstar due to his work on Marvel Comics' Spider-Man franchise. In 1992, he helped form Image Comics, pulling the occult anti-hero character Spawn from his high school portfolio and updating him for the 1990s. Spawn was one of America's most popular heroes in the 1990's and encouraged a trend in creator-owned comic book properties.
In recent years, McFarlane has illustrated comic books less often, focusing on entrepreneurial efforts, such as McFarlane Toys and Todd McFarlane Entertainment, a film and animation studio.
In September, 2006, it was announced that McFarlane will be the Art Director of the newly formed 38 Studios, formerly Green Monster Games, founded by Curt Schilling.
McFarlane used to be co-owner of National Hockey League's Edmonton Oilers but sold his shares to Daryl Katz. He's also a high-profile collector of history-making baseballs.

The Violator in clown form pays a group of disinterested teens to listen to him retell his encounter with a spawn in medieval times. He paints himself as a villages saviour who is out to defeat the murderous hellspawn. In fact it was the Violator that the village lived in fear of and the spawn offered them protection and loved by all. A fluke sees the Violator get the best of him which of course he retells as a courageous victory.
This issue was pretty funny, it really showcased how much of a jerk Violator is. His untruthful take on his encounter shows his insecurities, given who he is I'm not sure why he wants to paint himself as the hero in the scenario. I thought he would be reveling in being the bad guy.
