Now the Image Comics imprint-publisher is prepping what it calls an "aggressive" program of 15 new trade paperback and hardcover Spawn Universe collections in 2022 in this, the character's 30th anniversary, including some "never-seen-before collections," with more to come next year.

Due to what's described as the "resurgence of the Spawn character" and the launch of the new shared universe titles that there is a "loud demand" for a steady schedule readers and retailers can depend on, says Image Comics president and Spawn creator Todd McFarlane in the announcement.

The iconic creator says all of his Spawn plans including this new collection program is "as I also move towards the ultimate goal of getting the Spawn franchise off the ground in Hollywood… which will only stoke the need for these types of editions."

"2021 was a massive record-setting year for the Spawn Universe, and I plan to continue to deliver high-quality stories and products within the Spawn Universe that are reasonably priced," says McFarlane.
