TODD MCFARLANE

Good 'ol Toddy Boy


Todd made a name for himself penceling The Incredible Hulk for Marvel, became a star on Amazing Spider-man and then co-founded Image Comics, where he debuted Spawn. There the creator of Spawn branched out with his own successful toy company. Besides the movie, the toys and the HBO animated series, he still says that the comic book remains the most important element. Though the multimillionaire has passed on his monthly penciling chores, he still oversees each issue to make sure it remains consistent with the Spawn he created.

Mcfarlane: I've taken the stereotype that we all have about the superhero genre and not pandered to it -- if anything, I evolved it slowly, so that it has turned into a weird storyline with moments of creepiness and horror. I would say that in it's simplest form, it's still a superhero comic book, but it's got balls. I'm not worried about whether it's accessible to every single person on the planet.

The creator originally tried to lead fans to believe Spawn was a typical superhero comic book before sending it in a different, darker direction. Because Spawn is relatively new and doesn't have decades of continuity built into it, the 36-year-old Mcfarlane is free to do much more with the character and the title.......
