Spawn #9

In the dark of the 12th century, a knightly Hellspawn falls victim to a clever ruse by the celestial bounty hunter Angela, who dispatches him with her lethal Dimensional Lance. Eight centuries later, Angela arrives in modern-day New York to claim her latest prize, only to find Al Simmons is a far more unpredictable breed of Hellspawn than those she hunted in the past. While Spawn receives cryptic guidance from a mysterious new mentor named Cogliostro, he must tap into his raw necroplasmic power to survive his first encounter with the forces of Heaven. Their cosmic clash leaves Spawn in possession of a strange angelic relic, marking a dangerous new chapter in the war between light and shadow.
