About Spawn: The Dark Ages Newsstand Editions:




Spawn: The Dark Ages was the second ongoing spin-off book from Spawn,

beginning in 1999. Newsstand Editions were released concurrently

with every issue until the series ended in 2001.




They were all printed on a thinner newsprint paper,

with a thinner paperstock for the cover than the direct editions

(Except issue #28 which was printed on glossy paper).

They always have a barcode on the front cover

(unlike the direct editions), which is the easiest

way to spot them.




For Spawn comics, the newsstand editions are much harder

to find than the direct editions, having been printed in

vastly smaller quantities. Making collecting even more

difficult, they are much harder to find in good condition

as the thinner paper and newsstand racks led to a lot more

damage to the books than typical direct editions.

A Note About SpawnWorld:




I'm the owner/creator of SpawnWorld, the world's largest Spawn site. For 25 years and running I've been trying to catalog all Spawn comics, characters, and collectibles. The site is 100% free (not even any advertising!) and the best place to find info related to collecting Spawn. Specifically, if you'd like to learn more about Spawn newsstand editions, you can read my full explanation and checklist HERE. All books in my CGC sets (and 99% of all items on the site) are from my personal collection.
