New For Patrons: Guide to Todd McFarlane’s Spawn

by

Today’s new guide for Patrons of Crushing Krisis is my first guide for a creator-owned comic – created as a celebration of breaking the 100-Patrons mark!

Todd McFarlane’s Spawn – The Definitive Reading Order and Collecting Guide
[Note: This guide is now available to all readers of Crushing Krisis thanks to the ongoing support of Patrons!]

With Spawn now crowned as the ruling Guiness World Record holder as the longest-running creator-owned superhero of all-time (and with him coming in at 3rd place out of 10 options in the April poll), he seemed like the natural place to begin my guide coverage of creator-owned comics.

Haul Around The World: Why no EPICs for New Warriors? Plus: Daredevil, Gambit, & more!

Your eyes do not deceive you – this video is a Classic Collection, since it was shot before my big move!

That’s because I’ve got a whole year of haul videos to catch up on, because this was my order from January 1, 2019. In this order I go deep on Marvel’s peculiar new strategy of following up ancient classic collections with new trades, plus talk up my Gambit binding projects, love of Moon Knights and Lumberjanes, and more!

In this haul:

Moving more than 25,000 comic books AROUND THE WORLD (and then down the road)!

If you’ve been watching HiX-Men Report over the past few months, you know that part of the reason for my relative internet silence is that I’ve been prepping for a big house move!

Luckily, this move is just 10 minutes down the road rather than almost 10,000 miles around the world. No matter the distance, it still involves moving my collection of well over 25,000 comic books.

With this major task giving me major stress, I decided the best way to keep my spirits up would be to make a documentary about the process to show how I moved every single comic book myself. Plus, I finally get to show you my entire collection gathered all in one place.
