GREAT BOOK!

Spawn Urban Jungle. This is, in other words, Book nine from the Spawn's Book series. It has some of the greatest histories in the Spawn original saga (Issues 39 to 42). The first history is one of the sweetest ones ever, it describes a little boy's view of Christmas, makes you remember when you where a little boy and the "grown-ups" problems where of no concern to you. While Spawn is fighting some thieves on the little boy's roof, he thinks that all of the noises are just Santa and some of Santa's helpers. The end of this Christmas story called "Noel" is just a big surprise. The next three issues of this book start with a great history the first time that Spawn gets almost killed. He gets caught by some of The Curse's helpers, and the he's taken to a castle somewhere else. The Curse starts cutting Spawn's flesh into pieces just to send them to earth's greatest minds and... well, you have to read it to see what happens. The greatest part of these issues is how Spawn manages to escape from The Curse's hands, and how he terminates with The Curse's life. On the meantime, there are two background histories going on. When Cy-Gor starts looking for his prey (Spawn) and heads to New York, leaving a bloody path, also seeing Cy-Gor's human side as he saves a little boy from being killed. You can also see the two great detectives (Sam and Twich) as they look for some more clues and connections between Al Simmons (Spawn), Chief Banks, Senator Jennings' daughter and Billy Kincaid. You can also check out Twich's Beautiful Wife. And the conclusion of the great Three-issues-saga is when Spawn meets a funny little nerd that wants to be a hero when he grows up, and (with his great knowledge of comic books) he starts telling Spawn some things he doesn't know about his costume's design. One of the greatest things this book has is the Cover Art! Is Just REALLY Cool! As you can see, this book has it all. A must have for REAL Spawn fans. It starts with some sweet stuff, then it gets really violent, and ends on a big friendship between a Hell Spawn and a Nerd. I really recommend this great Book.
