The original cover
Spawn #10
Cerebus recoils in the foreground while Spawn looms behind him. Explore the later covers that revisit Todd McFarlane’s striking contrast of color and monochrome.
This catalog follows the original cover’s composition across published comics and announced editions. Trade dress, virgin, foil and sketch treatments are described in edition notes. Connecting sets identify their participating issues and panels.
Verified records have source support for the exact cover and target. Partial records retain attribution or edition gaps. Reprints, interior-scene homages, different targets and unresolved references are listed separately below.
Native 1000×1512 exact first-print direct cover. Full Cerebus/Spawn/selective-color cover, price box, GAH!COLOR! banner and signatures retained. Cover-only image, no exterior white mat/background; pale gray-white scan paper retains its supplied tone, no artificial whitening or recoloring. No crop/upscale. Publisher 700×1077 and Fandom 400×603 were smaller. Other Comic Vine 3182093-09 image is wrongissue 9 and was rejected visually. Cerebus stands in color reaching toward the reader in the foreground, with monochrome Spawn looming behind. GAH! COLOR! caption and selective-color joke define this composition. Dave Sim wrote the story, but GCD/LCG credit Mc Farlane cover art and Olyoptics colors.

Reprints, interior-scene homages and references (1)
- Spawn No. 10: Remastered and Expanded #10
Preserved supplied omnibus research row as reference, not one gallery artwork: 33 cover designs/treatments cannot accurately be represented by a single cover. Some remaster covers are EC parodies rather than Spawn #10 cover homages. Lawson lenticular source explicitly says published December 2020, assembled April 2024. No invented unified print run or date. Exact qualifying artwork editions need individual item-level records before counting.
