Al Simmons, once the U.S. government's greatest soldier and most effective assassin, was mercilessly executed by his own men. Resurrected from the ashes of his own grave in a flawed agreement with the powers of darkness, Simmons is reborn as a creature from the depths of Hell. A Hellspawn. Now Spawn must choose between his life on Earth and his place on a throne in Hell.WritersTodd McFarlane #1-8, 12-15, 21-101, 103, 104, 115, 120-134, 139-141, 143, 146-150, 185-200, 202-206, 213-275, 277-323, 327-336 (TOT 261)Terry Fitzgerald #5Neil Gaiman #9Dave Sim #10Frank Miller #11Grant Morrison #16-18Andrew Grossberg #19, 20Tom Orzechowski #19, 20, 88Alan Moore #37Brian Holguin #71, 72, 74-104, 107-126, 128-133, 135-142, 144-150, 186-191 (TOT 80)Steve Niles #100, 105, 106David Hine #150-184Robert Kirkman #200Jonathan David Goff #200, 201, 203-211, 215-225, 228-240, 296, 297, 302-305 (TOT 41)Will Carlton #201-217, 219 (TOT 18)Paul Jenkins #251-254Erik Larsen #259-266 (TOT 8)Tom Leveen #269-274 (TOT 6)Darragh Savage #276-282 (TOT 7)Jason Shawn Alexander #276-282 (TOT 7)Scott Synder #300Philip Tan #306, 307Rory McConville #323-336 (TOT 14)PencillersTodd McFarlane #1-15, 21-24, 27, 29, 30, 33, 50, 195, 196, 200, 255, 259-267, 300-303, 305 (TOT 42)Greg Capullo #16-20, 26-37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49-75, 78-101, 103, 128, 146, 150, 193, 195, 196, 300, 301 (TOT 84)Marc Silvestri #25Tony S.

After the success of Amazing Fantasy #15 (Aug. 1962) a few months later the same creative team came back to start an ongoing series focusing on the character the two of them created.The series continued until #441 (Nov. 1998) when Marvel relaunched the title as Amazing Spider-Man Volume 2 with a new #1 in January 1999, but after issue #30 (#471) Marvel began to use a dual numbering system. And then on the 40th anniversary the numbering was returned again from issue #58 to #500 (Dec. 2003) as Amazing Spider-Man Volume 1.This volume ends with #700 and is picked up by the Marvel Now! revolution volume Superior Spider-Man.WritersStan Lee: #1-110, 200, 365, 400, 600, 634-644, 700 (TOT 125)Gerry Conway: #111-149 (TOT 39)Archie Goodwin: #150, 181Len Wein: #151-180 (TOT 30)Marv Wolfman: #182-204 (TOT 23)David Michelinie: #205, 290-292, 296-352, 359-388 (TOT 90)Roger Stern: #206, 224-227, 229-252, 580, 627-629 (TOT 29)Dennis O'Neil: #207-219, 221-223Tom DeFalco: #-1, 251-261, 263, 265, 268-269, 271-273, 276-285, 365, 375, 407-439 (TOT 64)Christopher Priest: #284-288Peter David: #266-267, 278, 289, 525Ann Nocenti: #295J.

Bob Kane supposedly came up with the idea for the hero, but it has been suggested that he only came up with a "Bird-man" and Bill Finger suggested he be a "Bat-man". Both creators, however, share credit for this character. As for the Joker, the first concept sketch was drawn by Jerry Robinson, but Kane disputed that his input was "minimal" suggesting he and Bill came up with the idea. Kane also finagled many legal aspects of Batman related print and media ensuring he received sole credit. Prior to 2016, every movie and comic read "Batman created by Bob Kane", but following a campaign by the relatives of Bill Finger, all future credits have been changed to "Batman created by Bob Kane with Bill Finger". Robinson and Finger came up with the character, Robin after "Robinhood". Bob Kane and Sheldon Moldoff co-created numerous bat-creations including Alfred Pennyworth, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, Batwoman, Batgirl as well as Bat-Mite and Ace the Bat-Hound just to name a few. Bill Finger also co-created Penguin, Riddler, and Catwoman.Ad for Batman #1One of DC's longest running books showcasing the adventures of the Dark Knight, Batman. Throughout the years, a majority of Batman's marquee storylines have happened within the pages of this book including, but not limited to the death of the second Robin, Jason Todd, and Bane breaking Batman's back, leading to Jean-Paul Valley to assume the role of Batman for a period of time in the 90s.In 2006, superstar writer Grant Morrison took over the book. Morrison wrote stories that introduced readers to Bruce's son Damian Wayne as well as putting Bruce through a series of near-fatal trials against The Black Glove and Doctor Hurt, leading up to the epic 2008 storylines of Batman RIP and Final Crisis where Bruce Wayne had apparently died at the hands of the evil god Darkseid.After Bruce's "death," and the Battle for the Cowl, Dick Grayson, the first Robin, took up the mantle of Batman, continuing to protect Gotham exactly as his mentor had. He even took in Damian as his own Robin. With the exception of two issues set prior to the events of Final Crisis, Dick Grayson has been the star of the book since issue #687.When the superhero community learned that Bruce Wayne had never actually died, and was sent back in time by Darkseid, Dick Grayson eventually knew that his time as Batman would soon end. But with Bruce's return, and formation of Batman Incorporated, Bruce deemed Dick Grayson the Batman of Gotham City, as he travelled the world, searching for more recruits for his new organization.Charles Paris has drawn the most issues of Batman thus far at 128. Denny O'Neil is a long time writer and editor at DC with 211 issues. He also contributed the location of Arkham Asylum as well as the characters Man-Bat, Ra's al Ghul and Talia al Ghul.In September 2011, DC Comics relaunched their entire line in an event known as "The New 52" which would see the premiere of fifty-two new titles, thus the long-running Batman series ended with #713 during Tony S. Daniel's run on the title. In the new line, however, Tony Daniel will continue writing in the "Batman universe" but under the character's other main title, Detective Comics. The new Batman series will be written instead by Scott Snyder (who was writing Detective Comics pre-relaunch).For Post Flashpoint volume 2, refer to Batman.Writers:Pre-CrisisBill Finger #1-13, 15, 18, 20, 22-23, 25, 28-36, 38-40, 42-45, 47-50, 52-53, 55-71, 74, 76-80, 82, 84-85, 87-90, 92-93, 95-105, 107-108, 110-116, 118-148, 150-160, 163, 167, 170, 176-177, 182, 185, 187, 193, 198, 200, 203, 208, 213, 218, 223, 228, 233, 236-237, 241-242, 254-259, 261Joseph Greene #10, 17, 21, 26, 31, 261Jack Schiff #10, 13, 15, 21, 26Edmond Hamilton #11, 38, 76-78, 83, 85-86, 88, 91, 93-95, 98-99, 101, 104, 109-112, 182, 185, 187, 193, 198, 208, 218, 228, 238, 254, 261Don Cameron #12-17, 19-21, 23-32, 36, 38, 46, 213, 239, 256-261Ruth Lyon Kauffman #16, 260Joseph Samachson #18-19, 24, 27, 31Alvin Schwartz #21-22, 25, 28, 36, 74, 83, 176, 187, 198, 255, 260Mort Weisinger #22, 257Gardner Fox #41, 165, 170-172, 174-175, 179, 181, 183-184, 186, 188-192, 194-197, 199, 201-202, 208, 234, 254-255, 257-258, 260-262William Woolfolk #45, 58, 70, 80-81, 86-87, 176David Vern Reed #56, 59, 61, 67, 70-73, 75, 78-79, 81-85, 176, 182, 185, 187, 193, 198, 203, 208, 213, 218, 223, 228, 233, 238, 254, 267, 269-285, 287-294, 296-304Walter B.

Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson bring you THE BOYS.Wee Hughie was an average guy with everything going for him. A fiancee at his side, things were perfect...at least until everything was torn away by a superhero!In this world, the superheroes are ungrateful uncaring asses. The comic follows the story of Wee Hughie as he is recruited to and later joins "The Boys", a CIA black ops team dealing with super-powered threats. The team consists of five super-powered beings made to deal with the incidents just like Hughie's. Butcher (a man whose wife was raped and killed by a superhero), Mothers Milk (a man who is forced to feed off his own mother's breast for his powers), Frenchman (a strange animal-like man with unknown origin), the Female (of the Species) (a mute but deadly assassin with no past) and of course...poor Wee Hughie.In an interview, Garth Ennis had stated the series "may last up to 72 issues" and that it "will out-Preacher PREACHER".Publishers#1-6: WildStorm (DC Imprint)#7-72: Dynamite EntertainmentSpin-OffsThe Boys had three spin-off minis, they were collected as volumes in The Boys series rather than as stand-alone stories.

Edward and Al Elric are introduced in their plight to find the Philosopher's Stone. It all started when Ed and Alphonse were children and attempted to bring back their dead mother with Alchemy, the practice of transmuting matter. To transmute a human is considered the biggest of all sins in their world. The results of this were catastrophic for them and their friends and family. Their father, a secretive alchemist named Hohenheim, had already left years before. After they attempted bringing Trisha Elric, their mother, back to life, Ed was taken to the "Truth", an immortal being with god- like powers, which decided that as compensation for such a sin, that he would take Ed's leg. Alphonse, however, was not so lucky. Truth took his whole body and placed somewhere else within the Gate, a void like world where Truth resides. Ed saw that his brother, his only remaining Family member, was gone, and that he had also gained information about Alchemy no one would ever think about. He drew transmutation circles all over his body, one on his heart, on on his head, and one on his arm, telling himself that he would willingly lose these body parts if it meant that Al could get brought back to life. Luckily, Ed only lost his right arm, and was able to transmute his brothers soul, something else though unthinkable, into a nearby suit of armor, thus saving his life and soul, if only temporarily. Now, the Elric brothers must take on the near- immortal Homunculi, or face an impending apocalypse where all humans die. Assisted by the Amestrian army, as well as a few renegade Homunculi, the alchemists must finish what they started.English translation of the Japanese manga Fullmetal Alchemist.Collected EditionsFullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 1 (vol. 1-3)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 2 (vol. 4-6)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 3 (vol. 7-9)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 4 (vol. 10-12)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 5 (vol. 13-15)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 6 (vol. 16-18)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 7 (vol. 19-21)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 8 (vol. 22-24)Fullmetal Alchemist 3-in-1 vol. 9 (vol. 25-27)
