“Well, we’ve been talking off and on over the years about adding a little chutzpa to ‘Spawn’ and we got to a point where we were coming to the end of a run. Brian Haberlin, who had been doing the artwork and editing the title, his family has grown and all of a sudden all that time you can devote to comic books isn’t necessarily there anymore. So, we used this opportunity to find a new team and started to think about what we could do to kick start this whole thing and not just bring on a new creative team, but also to come up with a fairly radical new direction for the book that says to our readers this won’t be more of the same with pretty pictures, but we’re literally going to turn this thing sideways, or at least on its head, and give you something you haven’t seen for 180 issues.”
