ORIGIN

Al Simmons was a top assassin for the CIA. When he was betrayed by his own men, he went to hell and made a deal with the demon Maelbolgia to see his wife one last time. Al was sent back to earth with little to no memory of his past, a hideously scarred body and face, and supernatural powers. Being called the Spawn, Al leaned his mission in life, to lead the armies of hell in a war to destroy heaven and make Maelbolgia king of all. Spawn refused and has since had to fight enemies of heaven and hell, all the while trying to protect and get back to the women he loves, his wife Wanda.
