The life he lived has him sent straight to Hell, where he makes a deal with its master Malebolgia (Frank Welker) to return to the land of the living to see his family again. However, his side of the bargain involves him becoming Spawn, the leader for the eventual Armageddon, overseen by the demonic Clown (John Leguizamo). As Simmons adjusts to his resurrection while taking revenge on Wynn, he starts questioning his role in the machinations of Hell, and ultimately rebels.A reboot is currently in production, with Jamie Foxx starring in the titular role. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Spawn / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: In the comics, Al Simmons was killed by Chapel, a character from Rob Liefeld's Youngblood series. Rights issues made it impossible for Chapel to appear in the movie, so the character Jessica Priest was created as a replacement. McFarlane ended up replacing Chapel and inserting Priest into the comics. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Spawn / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: Besides cutting out the connections to the other Image Comics because that would take too long to explain, the movie cuts out a lot of pointless supporting villains and makes it all about Simmons versus Wynn, and gets rid of all the mystery surrounding Simmons and explains his history right away. | |

Bad People Abuse Animals | |
| Spawn / int_d2102da0 | comment |
Bad People Abuse Animals: While it may veer into What Measure Is a Non-Cute?, it says a lot about Wynn that he uses his pet scorpions' terrarium as an ashtray. He doesn't actually extinguish his cigar on any of the scorpions, but the implication is obvious. | |
