For some of us, it's hard to believe that Spawn is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. As part of the festivities, upcoming issues of Spawn will feature tribute covers and #222 places Spawn in the middle of The Walking Dead #1. This issue will be going on sale in August, and for those that have not seen the original cover for The Walking Dead #1, we've included it so that you can compare.

If you followed Spawn in the past and our now out of the loop, we have the description for the upcoming issue #220. Beyond the interesting covers, what's significant about the new releases is that Todd McFarlane has returned as the writer and cover artist.

"Celebrate SPAWN's 20th Anniversary with this special landmark release.

Jim Downing has long been a man lost - confused by his missing past, hounded
at every turn and manipulated by forces beyond his control.

No longer.

With his past finally coming into focus and a full understanding of the man he once was just out of reach, Jim embraces the full might of his horrific hell-born powers to piece together a mystery that has ties to the very core of the Spawn universe.

Old enemies will return. New dangers will emerge. And events woven within the complex fabric of Spawn's rich mythology will begin to coalesce.

What happens from this point forward has been 20 YEARS IN THE MAKING!"
